And what is wrong with a KC-10

Anyways, flying a fighter bomber like the B-2 would be cool as hell. Â*They are stationed at whiteman afb, MO. Â*I'd say go for flying, if you don't you will end up being incharge of people and have to deal with everything associated to having that possition. Â*

Man, why'd you have to dime me out like that. I was going to run with it for a little while.
FYI, to be a B2 pilot you have to be hand picked. It's a special duty assignment. You have to come out of another airframe.
Being a fighter pilot would be a neat deal, but not for a career. If you want to get an Airline job, you'd be much better served flying on an AMC type aircraft (KC-10, C-5, C-17, C-130) because you pile on a ton more hours than you would in a Fighter. Think 3-5K hours for a fighter career, more like 6-8K hours for a heavy career. If you insist on going the fighter track (nothing wrong with that), don't complain when you're using the piddle pack while flying formation off of a KC-10 on a pond hop, while the KC-10 crew is using their lav, fixing a cup of coffee, and stretching out for a while!!
