Fighter pilot

Fighter Pilots, also known as badasses, or zipper-suited sun gods are the second highest form of life in the universe, they have yet to displace surgeons.
== Background ==
A fighter pilot is one of those elite men who has been selected to fly sleek, sexy, supersonic aircraft in dazzling aerial combat, as well as put on cool airshows and pose for photographs. Only the best pilots in the world get to be fighter pilots. The rest fly slow, heavy, ugly aircraft used to haul rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong, or worse, Detroit.
Typically, fighter pilots wear elaborate uniforms which they claim are specially designed to be fireproof to protect them in case of an emergency. In actuality, however, the uniforms are made of a special type of cloth which repels beer stains. Note: You can tell the really "shit hot" fighter pilots by ,the zipper on the beer repelling uniform. The lower it is, the more skilled the aviator. These "flight suits" also allow a fighter pilot to get dressed and undressed in under ten seconds flat, and also perform various skills such as "ball-walking," a maneuver that might otherwise be impossible or painful in normal attire.
== History ==
In 1069, Lord Carolus Magnus, having just been defeated by Cossacks in the Battle of the Third Punic War, called his military councilors to discuss new military strategies and doctrine. After thirty hours of heated deliberation and enthusiastic discussion, the council started to get sidetracked, talking about boobs and poon and other topics which had no place in a professional military context. Fearing that letting this go on any longer would have the council completely out of control, the Lord's senior executive officer, Baron Manfred von Richthofen, summoned the butler who delivered four and twenty flagons of beer. An hour later, the council (who were Irish) was back on topic, with all members inebriated, shouting, passing out at the table, and there was much grab-ass, and it was good. As the clock struck midnight, Richthofen, himself subjected to the intoxicating beer, thought it a good idea to strap-on a cape and leap from the tower of the castle into a snowbank. They found him the next day, still intoxicated, lying in a ditch, uniform stained with his own vomit, and thus the fighter pilot was born. In honor of this momentous occasion, he commissioned the sacred beverage: Jeremiah Weed. The game of CRUD was also invented on this night.

Fighter pilots have been a part of every major conflict since that day, making notable appearances in World Wars 1, 2, and 4. After the Vietnam War (actually it was after WWII, but why quibble over details?), the United States Air Force was created in 1947, by General Wilbur "Bill" Creech and consists entirely of fighter pilots. In 1948, Chuck Yeager, the first American fighter pilot, became the first man to fly faster than the speed of Sound with a broken rib. Yeager was such a Bad Ass Fighter Pilot that EVERY pilot and most air traffic controllers sound like him on the radio to this very day.
Special Class of Fighter Pilot - AVIATOR
== Origin of the word "Aviator" ==
 
=== 1180 ===
This explains it all. As aviators, we come from a long line of a secret society, formed around one thousand years ago. We are warriors, and here is the proof! Ground pounders can read it and weep! 
A little known fact is the origin of the word, "Aviator." In the immortal words of Johnny Carson: "I didn't know that." 
Phu Khen (pronounced FooKen) 1169-? is considered by some to be the most under-recognized military officer in history. Many have never heard of his contributions to modern military warfare. The mission of this secret society is to bring honor to the name of Phu Khen. 
A 'Khen' was a subordinate to a 'Khan' (pronounced 'konn') in the military structure of the Mongol hordes. Khan is Turkish for leader. Most know of the great Genghis Khan, but little has been written of his chain of command. 
Khen is also of Turkish origin. Although there is not a word in English that adequately conveys the meaning. Roughly translated, it means, "One who will do the impossible, while appearing unprepared and complaining constantly." 
Phu Khen was one of ten Khens that headed the divisions, or groups of hordes, as they were known, of the Mongol Army serving under Genghis Khan. 
His abilities came to light during the Mongols' raids on the Turkistan city of Bohicaroo. Bohicans were fierce warriors and the city was well fortified. The entire city was protected by huge walls and the hordes were at a standoff with the Bohicans. Bohicaroo was well stocked and it would be difficult to wait them out. Genghis Khan assembled his Khens and ordered each of them to develop a plan for penetrating the defenses of Bohicaroo. 
Operation Achieve Victory (AV) was born. All 10 divisions of Khens submitted their plan. After reviewing AV plans 1 thru 7 and finding them all unworkable or ridiculous, Genghis Khan was understandably upset. It was with much perspiration that Phu Khen submitted his idea, which came to be known as AV 8. Upon seeing AV 8, Genghis was convinced this was the perfect plan and gave his immediate approval. The plan was beautifully simple. Phu Khen would arm his hordes to the teeth, load them into catapults, and hurl them over the wall. The losses were expected to be high, but hey, hordes were cheap! Those that survived the flight would engage the enemy in combat. Those that did not? Well, surely their flailing bodies would cause some damage. 
The plan worked and the Bohicans were defeated. From that day on, whenever the Mongol Army encountered an insurmountable enemy, Genghis Khan would give the order, "Send some of Phu Khen's AV 8-ers." This is believed, though not by anyone outside our secret society, to be the true origin of the word Aviator (AV 8-er). 
Phu Khen's AV 8-ers were understandably an unruly mob, not likely to be socially acceptable. Many were heavy drinkers and insomniacs. But when nothing else would do, you could always count on an AV 8-er. A Phu Khen Aviator.
Denied, perhaps rightfully so, his place in history, Phu Khen has been, nonetheless, immortalized in prose. As the great poet Norman Lear never once said: "There once was a man named Phu Khen, Whose breakfast was whiskey and gin. When e'er he'd fly, He'd give a mighty war cry: 'Bend over, here it comes again.' " 
Consider it an honor to be a Phu Khen Aviator. Wear the mantle proudly, but speak of it cautiously. It is not always popular to be one of us. You hear mystical references, often-hushed whispers, to 'those Phu Khen Aviators.' 
Do not let these things bother you. As with any secret society, we go largely misunderstood, prohibited by our apathy from explaining ourselves. You are expected to always live down to the reputation of the Phu Khen Aviator... a reputation cultivated for centuries, undaunted by scorn or ridicule, unhindered by progress. 
So drink up, be crude, sleep late, urinate in public, and get the job done. 
=== 1241 ===
Naval Aviators. 
It was in the year 1241 that the Kingdom of Phu Khen made war on the Empire of Japan. In a bold move the Phu Khen king placed Phu Khen AV-8er's aboard warships and invaded Japan by sea. This was the first use of NAVAL AV-8ers in history. the Naval AV-8ers roamed the length and breath of Japan, burning many Japanese cities to ashes. the defeated Japanese surrendered in Tokyo Bay in 1245.
The secret society PHU KHEN NAVAL AVIATORS exists today. Their secret ensignia are wings of gold. They meet secretly in gatherings called "Tail Hooks". There in the dark rites of "Carrier Landings" and "Crud" are performed.

== Airplanes flown by fighter pilots ==
Every single fighter pilot can fly every kind of fighter plane. Here are some of the most popular fighter jets in History:
*F-15C Eagle ("One man, one mission"): Kick ass...and it does. Everything else is CRAP...!
*F-15E Strike Eagle: A 4-ship worth of Viper bombs, fuel, and missiles. Twice the number of brains in the jet, yet somehow only half the brain-power). Not the support asset the C-model is, this one has a mission!
*F-100 (the "Hun", the "Sleek and Shiny, Slightly Supersonic, Super Sabre,"): The F-86 unperfected, the King of Adverse Yaw, whatever that is. 
*F-86: No bird beats the F-86H, the last of the real "Sports cars! Except if you wanted to go really fast and last a long time. 
*F-106: The Ultimate Interceptor, The Cadillac of Fighters, With a Nuke, or with its gun and clear top, could out turn, outlast, and engage anywhere in the envelope IN ITS TIME....Few Know. Also called the MiG 106.
*F-8 Crusader: Single seat rocket ship; nickname -"Mig Killer" (and it did)
*F-4 Phantom ("Fred Williams' Major Ride"): The RHINO...Could take a lot of damage, do everything, but not a lot really well; hard to fix; Flying on Force alone; Smoker; Supersonic with Super Drag attached; Double Ugly; 
*F-105 B/D/F/G: The "Thud" took the fight "downtown" to "bullseye" and returned... usually. Named after the sound the aircraft made when returning to earth without its fighter pilot. Faster than all its peers on the deck or headed straight down. Weasel version produced one MOH winner.
*RF-4E Phanton Phlasher: 
*F-5 Tiger II:
*F-20: Now there was a fighter....the old quality vs quantity.....for the money for the bigger competitor, you coulda got 4 of these....Give em all a magic AIM9L and anyone can be an ace.
*F-29: Really really good one that was soooo far ahead of its time.........trouble was it would super cruise, was gas efficient and wouldn't cost enough. 
*F-12 (defunct): Got reborn as SR-71 recon bird. Flew very high, very fast, but couldn't shoot anything down.
*F-13: Huh?
*F-14 (Bad-Ass "Tomcat"): The best fighter to ever retract it's landing gear.
*Boeing: If Boeing is the name of a fighter, then GM is the name of a sports car. Dipshit.
*F-16 ("Viper"): Only non-fighter pilots call it a "Fighting Falcon". The original 9-g fighting machine. With two tails and two engines, the F-15 takes twice the effort to do what the F-16 can do twice as well. Including hitting the ground.

*F-UCK: The coolest group of dudes you've ever met.
*F-22 ("Raptor"): Rapist, Boat, Showboat and Toucan Sam. The only fighter that can turn up its own ass, kill everything in the sky, is invisible to radar, and the list goes on and on, yet the Air Force still parks them outside because building new hangars is too expensive.
*F-35A/B/C/D ("FKMP"): "Fat Kid with Magic Pants" should be in same category as X wing. The Air Force will call it the Lightening II, The Navy will call it the Super Cat and the Marines will call it the Up and Down Flying Thingy.
