WEBVTT 00:15.180 --> 00:17.236 I'm Captain mandy fire cannon . So I 00:17.236 --> 00:19.440 was one of the F 35 pilots , I was the 00:19.440 --> 00:22.500 weak men in the second F 35 . 00:27.040 --> 00:29.040 A lot of planning was done by those 00:29.040 --> 00:31.207 around us and then the mission was for 00:31.207 --> 00:33.650 us to fly out here . We knew there was 00:33.650 --> 00:35.650 gonna be a target that we needed to 00:35.650 --> 00:37.761 find and we worked with vision and to 00:37.761 --> 00:39.817 find that target on the ground using 00:39.817 --> 00:41.817 our cameras and sensors and then we 00:41.817 --> 00:44.039 went ahead and straight to the target . 00:44.039 --> 00:46.300 The goal was to eliminate the target 00:46.450 --> 00:49.020 and then as the last report we could do 00:49.020 --> 00:51.820 a show of force . So we flew up , flew 00:51.820 --> 00:55.080 fast and then accomplish with this . 00:59.120 --> 01:01.009 It's pretty awesome to see people 01:01.009 --> 01:03.180 excited about the F 35 . So whenever 01:03.180 --> 01:05.347 people are willing to take the time to 01:05.347 --> 01:07.402 come out to look at it and listen to 01:07.402 --> 01:09.624 what we have to say , as far as what we 01:09.624 --> 01:11.624 can do what it can do . It's always 01:11.624 --> 01:14.060 really fun to see flying with the 4 19 . 01:14.080 --> 01:16.390 Flying with Loco , it was really , 01:16.390 --> 01:18.720 really fun and it's always just a great 01:18.720 --> 01:20.942 kind of interaction between the three D 01:20.942 --> 01:22.887 eight and 4 19 . I started a pilot 01:22.887 --> 01:24.887 training down in columbus Air Force 01:24.887 --> 01:27.109 Base in Mississippi And when I finished 01:27.109 --> 01:29.276 up there I also did I F . F . And then 01:29.276 --> 01:31.387 I knew at that point I was tracking F 01:31.387 --> 01:33.810 35 . So I traveled just a few hours 01:33.820 --> 01:35.876 over to Eglin Air Force Base where I 01:35.876 --> 01:38.480 completed the course for the F 35 then 01:38.480 --> 01:41.160 here I am now at Hill Air Force Base uh 01:41.170 --> 01:44.230 About a year flying the F 35 . With the 01:44.240 --> 01:48.050 41 being a new to the 4 to 1 , I just 01:48.050 --> 01:50.217 hit my one year mark here officially . 01:50.217 --> 01:53.240 Being a full of wingman is busy . It 01:53.240 --> 01:55.935 takes a lot of repetition studying and 01:55.935 --> 01:58.157 then you're just constantly training to 01:58.157 --> 02:00.175 get better and better . So there's 02:00.175 --> 02:02.231 never really a moment where you feel 02:02.231 --> 02:04.453 that you've mastered everything because 02:04.453 --> 02:06.925 once you get good at something , a new 02:06.925 --> 02:09.075 opportunity , new training it's given 02:09.075 --> 02:10.985 to you . So you're constantly 02:10.985 --> 02:12.763 developing new skills , further 02:12.763 --> 02:15.155 improving the old skills . So it's just 02:15.165 --> 02:17.715 been busy busy , which I love . You 02:17.715 --> 02:19.937 can't really get a much better job than 02:19.937 --> 02:22.159 this , getting to fly pretty much every 02:22.159 --> 02:21.165 day .
