    Silly video. All pilots need endorsements on different aircraft types. A single engine Cessna pilot needs a rating to fly a twin. Even once you fly twins you need an endorsement on a particular type of twin eg Beechcraft Baron or a Cessna twin. Flying aircraft is not like driving a car, you can’t just get in any aircraft and fly it once licensed unless it’s a basic single engine type.

      Actually, legally, pilot with a multi engine rating can fly any light twin with a max gross weight of less than 12500 lbs. But most insurance companies require an endorsement for different types of just about any aircraft.

    I see you folks south of 49 use the Texan and A Talon as a trainers while we use the Tudor. A go faster type machine. We only use the one. They behave quite like a F18 or so I am told.

    Talk to C-130 pilots about flying into hostile, life threatening environments, while completing their airlift mission. The C-5 and C-17 have their specific airlift missions and are excellent aircraft for what they do but no aircraft comes close to the numerous variants and length of active service as the C-130.

    I saw some videos where F-22 have some rockets and bombs not inside but outside that means the F-22 them very visible for radars, but if those rockets and bombs outside make them not visible for radars like fighter too ? also why we need those so heavy JDAM-s those monsters 2000 pounds ?, when much less heavy JDAM-s can make damages the same especially with those much less heavy JDAM-s guidet by lasers to attack moving targets ? also those drons with algorithmic cameras can attac also moving targets by being bombs by them self or those drones which is just attack drones with much less heavy bombs ?.

    I know plenty of former fighter pilots who now work for airlines or cargo operations. The physics, navigation, and basic operations are the same in all aircraft. There will be a familiarity time frame for a fighter pilot, much as there would be for a 757 pilot learning to fly an Airbus 321. There are different procedures for aircraft operation, but to say the best F22 pilots can't fly heavy aircraft is just plain ignorance. Of course, they can.

    • @AllTradesGeorge

      I think the point is, they can't just hot-swap transport and fighter pilots. The muscle memory and flight tactics don't translate back and forth.

    I worked in Japan for 4 years, and one of the supervisors stated she can't drive an automatic because she's driven a manual her whole adult life. Me, I drive an automatic. So after driving a 3 pedal forklift all day, I get ready to go home. I'm on the road and all of a sudden I hit the brake pedal and stop in the middle of on going traffic. But catch myself and floor the gas pedal. Accident avoided. On another note, when the family arrives back in the USA, I drove from the airport to our destination. I got up the next day, got in the car, started driving on the city streets, and all of a sudden, I kept pulling to ongoing traffic 😒. I catch what's going on and pull over. Finally driving back to the hotel, I didn't drive for a whole week until I got rid of that strange incident.

    We love US taxpayers for paying for military powers that are used to protect every other western country.
    We don't have to pay so much for our military because the US taxpayers pay for them for us.
    The US taxpayers don't even have a proper healthcare system, so their sacrifice is huge 👍

      You're wrong about that. Go look and see which country develops and produces the most medicines. I think you are too lazy to do any actual looking based on your comment. The US develops and produces the most. We have an excellent healthcare system. I lived in Canada. You wait in line for a long time and are told to come back. The problem gets worse. They also pay about 17% on stuff to pay for their health care. Most Canadians who can afford it come to the US for care. BTW, about 90% of Canadians live within 1-1/2 hours of the US.
