I am sure that is true. Seriously, about Muslim pilots. I was at Laughlin AFB, pilot training base. We had Iranian Air Force student pilots learning to fly. The instructor pilots I knew, all said these Muslims couldn't fly airplanes to save their rear ends. I doubt much has changed. The Iranians couldn't even best the Iraqis in the Iran/Iraq war, and you saw how the Iraqi Air Force was blown out of the sky by USAF and USN pilots. I doubt the Iranians would fare well against US pilots either.
I lived there on Edwards Street, used to mow lawns for the officers. My Father taught egress systems to the enlisted and officers. We lost one of ours at Laughlin that was flying the U-2 over Cuba. I was there until 1968. My Father served in SAC, TAC, was a crew chief in Thailand for Thuds and in Japan when the B-57E's were overflying China and Russia. He knew Curtis LeMay and many of the famous USAF Pilots personally and served with them. I am sure the veterans are disappointed in the way the USAF is handled today and the ones that have passed are spinning in their graves. I spent 10 years in the USAF and was brought up spit and polish and the USAF was changing during my term of service. I can remember my Father having to qualify with the M-1 Carbine and M1911 .45 and serving with Marines and Army for his deployments. During the debacle at the Bay of Pigs he was armed to the teeth ready for deployment to Cuba that was reversed by Kennedy.
