Just wanted to say a big thank you to this channel! I report to OCS November 3rd this year with the Navy. Once that is done I go to Pensacola for flight school. Anybody who is trying to become a military pilot should definitely watch this channel. I used your advice and tips numerous times. The best advice I received was to MAKE THEM TELL YOU NO! (multiple times)

Excellent ! That was about a 3 way split for me. 1/3 new, 1/3 confirmed/clarified and 1/3 Yup understood that already. I'm a former NORAD Weapons Controller and it's interesting to compare with the terms used in the old SAGE environment. We had a sometimes useful automated ystem of guiding our primary interceptors (F-106) to targets using datalink and my 2 favorite terms were "Follow Dolly" (Telling the pilot we are sending them a target to attack via datalink - follow that guidance. "Judy" The pilot would call that when he didn't need any more voice guidance for the target (Shut up and let me get this kill) That also meant we were no longer responsible for getting them in behind the target (Almost every intercept was stern conversion where we drove them to the point where they had about a 30 to 45 degree angle off the nose of the target and we were to guide them to turn and roll out behind the target at about a 1/2 to 1 mile range. Of course that was in the benign intercept with no evasion permitted. Naturally that became more difficult to achieve when the target turned into your pilot. The one unique situation we often had was that we were often controlling planes over the great lakes region and in fall and early spring they hated going "feet wet" then. After the lakes totally iced over not as serious and of course in the short summer not a big issue. Many times we were directed to set them up on cap stations over the lakes and they were always unhappy with that. You'd get repeated calls of "Goliath LimaHotel 02 Feet Wet" Their meaning was - GET ME THE "H" over land NOW, stop having me orbit over water. Most times there was nothing we could do because our assigned MOA was mostly over water.

I was an F-15 weapons troop back in the mid 80s and 90s and I wanted to add some lingo for you from a maintenance side. Sorry that I came late to the discussion. Most pilots are awesome, but we had ways of talking about things, no disrespect "Short between the headset" The jet might not be the problem "No sir, the radar will not function well in OFF mode" noob R² is shorthand for remove and replace in the aircraft maintenance record so: "R² Stick actuator" "R² flight suit insert" "redball" the pilot has an immediate problem that must be resolved if it is to fly A few times the pilot would show up and say "it will never fly Orville" to which we would answer "have faith Wilbur" also code 4 is chemical or nuclear contamination code 5 is battle damage "weekend screw" when you are guard or reserve and it is that weekend where it is particularly trying, like an exercise. "sergeant skillcraft" A lazy person who was caught falsifying records rather than doing the inspection. "pencilwhip" same as sergeant skillcraft For some reason in the USAF half of the places you need to go to end in farm, barn or rack. "back when Christ was a corporal" I am older and wiser than you

In the UK (I don't know about other parts of the world), the military have a term for a low-hours pilot - (I believe that it's "Tyro"). When flying solo as a student, we are supposed to prefix our callsign on initial contact with "student". If flying into a MATZ, a low hours pilot can use the prefix "Tyro" when qualified. I like that convention. I wish that civilian FIS would adopt it.

Navy is using the same aspect system for ships. When you want to calculate how far away another ship is passing you or you want to intercept without using radar you use basic triangle math. If you regard yourself as stationary and the other guy shows you a ten degree bow right in a distance of 6000yds you can use sinus 10 x 6000yds and get 3200yds distance of track. Ther it makes more sense to say that a guy going right towards you is showing zero Angle of bow due to the math. At least on subs it’s used a lot when working with a periscope. I don’t really sea a necessity for a navy Air Force difference there though.

Priceless. I probably would've been a solid fighter pilot if I'd been groomed to be one but I ended up being a professional limo driver.. which is badass in and of itself, at least to me, but I can relate to the focus, self discipline and calm demeanor of fighter pilots. Anyways.. I'm definitely adopting this lingo and will watch this video until I memorize most or all of it. I appreciate the insight into the FP lifestyle.

Things must have changed, we used code 1, code 2, and hard down in the Marines in the early '80s. I was Phantom radar shop so we had a lot of code 2 stuff that didn't get worked on until after the last jet was on the ground or when it went hard down for something else, (and after that shop had worked THEIR gripes AND the jet wasn't needed for another hop right away). The saying was, "fuckit, flyit, fixit later." I just remembered, in the maintenance control shack they had a board for aircraft status, two columns with an arrow drawn in each block on every jet's line, up arrow or down arrow. First column was airframe status and second column was radar status. Up and up, up and down, down and up and down and down were the possibilities.

Super interesting, thanks! So if you heard me over the radio saying, “Tally, 1500, low aspect, I’m Jester, turning hot” that’d make sense? Asking for the time I’ll never actually say that in real life 😅
