Air Show Fighter Pilots

Some of the footage in the video shows air show flight displays by individual fighters and military demonstration teams. Militarily, there is a difference between the two types of individuals who are flying as an individual demo pilot and those on a team.
 
Generally, we don't deal with military demonstration teams here at Fighter Pilot University only because these pilots have hung their fighter pilot status on the hook, usually just temporarily, and become entertainers and recruiting tools. That's OK, that's fine, but in spite of what their public relations statements may say, they're not go-to-war ready fighter pilots.

Solo demo pilots are usually a part of an operational squadron who's main business is preparing for war. These solo guys do the demo gig as an additional duty but must also maintain their mission ready status. Some solo guys you'll see at an air show are actually an employee of some large corporation dealing in massive government contracts who are flying and promoting their particular fighter. Still others, on rare occasions, may be flying a privately owned jet, usually vintage, owned by some deep pocketed multi-millionaire.
 
Regardless of which you're doing, your flight demo status greatly increases your chick magnet quotient. Except maybe the private jet guy because they're quite often old as dirt.  However, I suppose they do well with the elder female air show groupies.
 
OK, enough of that. Kickass video!!



Next time you go to an air show, make
 sure you've got on FU gear from the FU STORE.
It'll do two things for you.  First, you'll look cool.
Second, the fighter pilots there will respect you
and know that you kickass.
Get to the FU STORE now.

This is another kind ofair show, less aerobatics but much more effective.
