pffft, military pilots are like sport bike riders. they know it's illegal but hey, sometimes you realize you are in a fighter jet after all, and it can do some pretty cool stuff. if i had a dollar for everytime i saw one of our pilots grounded for doing something "dangerous" i'd have been a rich man. even our XO got grounded for buzzing the tower in afghanistan.

we flew at an air show in ohio once. our pilot showed up to fly that morning still half wasted from the night before. he completely made up his own flight plan. did nothing he was supposed to do. except his high speed pass.... in the wrong direction, hovered around in circles looking lost. it was hilarouse. the FAA was not happy.
