re: #131 HappyWarrior

Fred Thompson? No thanks, I am not tired yet. Seriously though. The guy’ s upset that Obama chose a non-pilot to head the AF? Was not aware that such a small percentage of active duty USAF were pilots per Kragar but still.

Piloting is just a small part of the job. It takes a lot more people to maintain the equipment, prepare munitions, coordinate communications, keep people fed, clothed, and house, etc, than to fly the planes.
