Just another reason why I don't watch television.......
Ever see a movie about your profession? Seeing one about mine (Pushing Tin) made me realize just how screwed up hollywood can get it. It really makes you realize how 'off' alot of movies and TV shows probably are. Entertaining? Sure. Accurate....not really.
You mean you guys don't really stand at the end of the active runway and let the turbulance from a departing 747 bounce you around???
One of my friends who was a career military officer used to love watching JAG. On that show the commanding officer was a SEAL (because "action guys" really aspire to become Former Action Guys), the lead male character was a fighter pilot (who had a vision problem that kept him in the Law until the script demanded he fly) and his partner was the youngest (and hottest looking) female Marine Lt. Col. I have ever seen. -In the words of my friend "It was the best comedy on TV."
