Fly fly away
So this morning at 0700, I got up and went to the fieldhouse.
I was early, but none of the cadets were there. I would have thought that at least one of them would have signed up, being as the Army only got three time slots.
So I waited a few minutes, and then the presenter guy came over.
"You ready to fly this thing Red?"
And I'm thinking... oh crap... i actually have to try and fly a top of the line stealth-jetfighter-bomber-awesome plane???
But I was the only one there, so big deal. hehe.
So I hop in, thinking, aw, my right hand isn't going to be able to use this thing.
WRONG! The thing fit perfectly. I did well enough, considering I'd never used a simulator like that before. This plane has been in the making since I was born, and now there will be 40 of them deployed to the air force next year. I got to fly it before air force pilots! Hahha.
So yeah, that was amazingly cool. I just want a helicopter one now!!
