THIS is the real reason.
And let it be known as well that lift and thrust are directly
proportional to the AMOUNT of money spent :-)

I guess that's why you Yeager types figure out ways to get into the
military planes. The military guys may not get paid much, but at least
they're not PAYING.
I'd wager the average fighter pilot monthly salary would not pay for
the gas the pilot uses on a single flight -- let alone the
maintenance. Even for a couple of flights!
Well, sheet. Some people are just smarter than others.
I'm not a Yeager type, and if you think that money was all I needed to
fly military airplanes the way I have in my career you are sadly
misinformed.

Yeager as in highly skilled and experienced. Which you are.
I was trying to pay you a COMPLIMENT. I failed, I guess!
Your post didn't read like any compliment to me mister. It was snide,
overly familiar, and totally incorrect to boot. You don't know me well
enough to compare me with anyone, let alone someone I detest.
In the future, if you post to me with anything as ambigious as this post
was, use a f*****g smilie.
