Hope you are tall! it seems like they navy likes to put tall people in the hornets. We had a few shorter ones but not many. Not sure why they did that and maybe it was a random coincidence. Either way good luck! May you'll get lucky and get to go fly the EA-18 (better displays and newer) or the F-35.

I appreciate it. Now that you mention it, there are a lot of us over 6ft.

Call me old fashioned but I kind of have a thing for the legacy hornets. I've also been talking to some prowler guys who say the growler is pretty much the most dynamic community these days as the Navy is trying to figure out what it's capable of. In the end though, I'll just be happy with wings.
