She's probably lying about the baby too..

based on FBB's posting history.. i'm 99.2783664664523535% positive he's making everything up.

If by "flying fighter jets" you mean "making me a sandwich", then yes, possible by age 21. She doesn't need a fighter jet to go from the kitchen to bedroom...

:awe:

You don't have to go to the Air Force Academy to become a USAF pilot. Most officers enter the military through ROTC or by going to OCS after college.

Yeah though, the girl in question is full of shit.

Extremely unlikely.

I bet a 20 year old Army Blackhawk pilot, and she's probably the only one there is. Finished college\ROTC at 18 and off to Fort Rucker for 2 years of flight school. I sort of imagined that Air Force fighter jet training was longer than Army rotary wing training though...

The Army is different. All Air Force pilots are commissioned officers, whereas most Army helicopter pilots are warrant officers who do not have to have had a college education.

Any chick who has her shit together enough to bang out a college degree and be flying jets for the USAF by age 21 (even if it's just in flight school) would NOT be making a baby out of wedlock with fuzzybabybunny.

Something here doesn't add up, even if you use new math. Just saying.

I agree.

It takes a LOT of dedication and hard work just to become a pilot and they aren't going to screw it all up by getting pregnant.

Met with her at around 10pm tonight.

Told her that she needs to stop beating around the bush and start showing me things to convince me that she is who she says she is. That every time she evades she pushes me further and further away. She's pregnant with my baby. From day one she's always been very evasive with my questions, always answering me extremely vaguely about her work.

Asked her what AFSC stood for. She instantly became defensive, and she said it stood for Air Force Security Clearance and that it gives you clearance to see top secret information (it stands for Air Force Specialty Code - everyone's got one). I asked her what her's was and she said "you think I can actually give that to you?" So I asked her how many digits are AFSC's and she got mad and wouldn't answer. I asked her what her rank and number were and she wouldn't answer. I asked her if she's actually flown real missions or just traning missions. She wouldn't answer and said "you know, I think you need to leave." So I left. I'm 26 years old. She's pregnant with our baby. I need help. I'm so worried. Do I need a lawyer ASAP?

Wait. Is this the same girl you mentioned before that was also disabled or something? And now you believe she's in the Air force. Dude, how naive are you? I bet if she told you she's a Princess next, you'll believe her? Have you asked your stuffed animals if they believe her?

Oh and so this:

The most likely scenario is some bent brain little psycho-liar is spinning yarns you're too naive and socially retarded not to immediately see through. She's also not in Special Operations.

Did you two meet in a pharmacy while getting your prescriptions filled?

Posting in an EPIC thread!

I think we can safely assume the girl in question is full of shit. The question now becomes, is there a girl in question?

I call shens.

I think the question is, how naive are we?
Is anybody believing a word of this?

Dude, you've been here long enough to read his threads. I have no doubt he could possibly get a chick pregnant and I have no doubt he'll believe anything told to him by some girl to get laid.

I mean come on, he has stuffed animals and wears women clothes b/c they fit him better(and even posted pics here).

Oh snap. Thread just got real. Either fbb is planning an elaborate troll, or is majorly naive and f'ed. Check out his thread in L&R about a month back.

Little late to this thread, probably restating what's been said but I'm too lazy to look.

No, it is not possible. The only service that allows enlisted personnel to fly is the US Army and those are Warrant Officers and the Army only flies helicopters. For a person in the Air Force, the requirement is a college degree plus flight training.

One of my friends is the same age as me (24) and just got his wings in the Navy flying F-18E/F Superhornets. He's one smart mofo and graduated pretty close to top of his flight class. Another friend (same age) is in flight training with the air force yet and still doesn't have his wings.

I.e., you or your girl is full of shit.

EDIT: HOLY FUCK, JUST READ THE THREAD.

One other thing...if the chick graduated from college at 18 why the hell would the Air Force put her in a flight suit instead of a lab. Doesn't make sense.

Oh, and wear a fucking condom you twat.

Where's my popcorn, this is one entertaining thread. Somebody better make note of it for the awards at the end of the year.
