*Note from a retired jet tailhooker. Seriously, if you desire to be
"a kid", as I did long ago... in a galaxy far away, in API, & primary/basic, you have to work your buns off. This includes putting priority on learning to fly over local night life, and all other distractions. Being prepared for each and every flight (actual or simulator). Studying, and knowing your EPs, and individual procedures for each syllabus flight. To get jets, your total flight performance grades are the KEY!
Of course being brilliant, handsome, and cool doesn't hurt either!
