"Taming The Tweet" -- Few people can say they've ever flown a jet aircraft alone. Soloing a jet was a milestone both in life and in my career as an aviator. Here's the story of my first solo as an Air Force pilot in the Cessna T-37 "Tweet."
"Phantom 92's Got A Problem!" -- In 1999 while a SUPT student, I experienced an inflight emergency while flying a T-38 solo.
"The 'Fuge!" -- They call it "The price you have to pay for the joys of flying a fighter jet." It's a trip out to Holloman AFB, New Mexico to ride the Centrifuge all the way to 9Gs.
"Don't Try This At Home" -- If you think flying formation only 3 feet from another airplane is a real challenge, try doing it at night!
