Recently on a commercial flight, I sat beside an Air Force pilot who flew the F15 in the first Gulf War, and the U2 in the current conflict. Far from some tough, warrior type personality, he was exceptionally professional, thoughtful, careful, deliberate, and thorough. He gave the impression as being someone always in perfect balance, not given to recklessness or passion.

Those airplanes cost millions of dollars. It would be idiotic to put them in the hands of emotional gung ho types.
