Push-ups at 90º

[helolumpy]

Even since they took your PRT score off the FitRep (early 90's) who cares how many push-ups you can do? P/WS is they only thing that matters. Then again, if you drink enough beers and you get a belly, you won't have to break 90 degrees and have your belly touch...

Yeah, Navy push-ups hard? Try doing an Army PT test - it's so much about form it's almost a Drill and Ceremony class every time you take one. Heterosexual friends don't let heterosexual friends join the Army. The beer thing is true - my best PT score (291/300) was after a sleepless night loaded with Hefeweizen in Germany.

So what happened in your case? Hanging out in boy's town too often?

Momentary lapse of reason...and it was the only service in 1999 that let people with glasses do anything aviation-wise.

AND you could be an idiot without any college or sexy looks like me and still be a pilot...of course if I were sexy I'd be in hollywood and not Afghani-wood so I'm fibbing on that one...but still, it used to be monkeys with minimal opposed thumb usage and glasses could be pilots on rotary-winged aircraft, until after Sept. 11th that is.
