the correct term is 'Bomber pilot' not 'Fighter pilot'.
BigX: Whilst you are quite correct I put 'fighter pilot' in inverted commas specifically becuase it was a generalisation. To the general public someone stepping out of a 2 seat jet aircraft is a 'fighter pilot', someone climbing out of a Lancaster is a 'bomber pilot'. My use of the generic term was to make a generic point. Sorry. Next time I will try & be more pedantic.
