trbrts, those dudes won't get near those aircraft for, I'd say, about three or four years. They're cadets.

how can you tell they're cadets? i was trying to read their name tags, and as far as i can tell, what with their attire and call signs, they're prolly commissioned but are in flight school. are you sure they're still in the academy?

These are fourth year cadets. (in other words, freshmen.) I got it off a message board geared toward current and former cadets.

Don't take it seriously, these kids deserve to be able to let off steam just like regular college kids.

Well, that was a waste of bandwidth.

There are at least a few frames where you can make out on their nametags that they're USAFA cadets. I'd wager that they've been pre-selected into the pilot training stream or have taken / are taking the gliding course at USAFA.

And, yeah, it's the sort of foolishness that 18- and 19-year old boys get up to. Probably worse since there are so few luscious ladies about.

I like the part where they straddle the bed, say “Strap it on,” then play with their joysticks.

MrMoonPie is right... I was expecting it to launch into amateur gay porn at any sec...
