Wow I had not heard about that...I knew they were expensive but I had not heard anything about the F-22s being cancelled. I hope not. They may be really expensive, but there is no other fighter equal to it. I thought it was funny when I was watching some show about them and it said that the F-22s are more stealthy than the stealth fighters (f-117s right? cant remember), but then the stealth fighters are much older. To matt: yeah i know about the part on flying...but I think they try to put you where you want to fly, be it fighters, cargo, or choppers. All depends on what the AF, Navy, or whomever it may be needs. Still, there is a chance there and I certainly would not pass it up if I got it. Even if I just became a cargo pilot, thatd be cool too...down here we have Keesler AFB, and its the home of the Hurricane Hunters, so that would be another cool flight opportunity. And that sucks about the medical disqualification, sorry about that...
