Most dangerous job?

In a word: NO.

Heck, average fighter pilot does all that. . .and more. Just doesn’t do it over crowds.

Uhhhh, no. I do.

Wyatt exited the aircraft wearing a huge smile. “He did a complete barrel roll,” Tucker says. “My hands weren’t even touching the controls!”

Totally against Young Eagles rules.

I’d say a Marine Corporal at some FOB in Afghanistan probably has the most dangerous job “in America.”

Actually, the most dangerous form of flying is cropdusting. Try flying an airplane--even if it's a specialized cropduster plane!--at 10 to 20 feet above the ground spreading agrichemicals and have to be aware that telephone/electrical lines are major collision hazards. Even the tiniest mistake flying so low is possibly lethal to the pilot.

Small wonder why there is now major interest in using small drones loaded with agrichemicals as replacements for cropdusting planes.

Love Sean Tucker!!!! I’ve seen him fly at a couple of airshows. They broadcast him live from the cockpit as he’s flying. He’s a one man show. The man loves to fly.
