Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Air Force was able to produce 3,500 pilots in 1967, and I entered the service in 1966. My road to an F-4 cockpit began in 1966, my final year at the University of South Carolina, where I was enrolled in the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps.
#2 I had passed the five specific areas of the Air Force recruiting test: pilot, navigator, academic aptitude, verbal, and quantitative (math). I was excited to be a potential candidate for pilot training and a chance to wear the coveted silver wings.
#3 I was ordered to Moody Air Force Base near Valdosta, Georgia. I was disappointed that the base wasn’t conducive to the debauchery and uninterrupted hell-raising I had planned for my pilot training experience.
#4 I rewarded myself by buying a shiny new British racing green Austin Healey 3000, which I could not afford. I set sail for Moody Patch, where the road to aviation fame and glory began in a classroom. I was introduced to the delights of flight theory, aircraft systems, and flight planning.
