"Flight" surgeon is more of a position title then a job description.
I know what a Flight Surgeon is and does, and that he will have a flight suit, and wear it on occasion going about his assigned duties, and at some point will most certainly be on flight status. Canada might be different.

Then again, it is the AF, so who knows these days.

Well my info is sort of dated but spending much time on air bases for both countries I don't think I ever saw a Flight Surgeon in a flight suit. Maybe they do now or at least when deployed.

Wiki says:


"Flight surgeons are typically rated aviators on flight status (i.e., they log flight hours in military aircraft as a crewmember), but are not required to be rated or licensed pilots, naval flight officers, or navigators/CSOs."

I once saw him at McChord AFB, dressed in a flight suit, while attending the promotion ceremonies for a General Officer, that was my client.

He used to give me some "good" meds, just to have on hand, for when I felt poorly ...... he can't do that so much anymore ......

Time to go ....... sneak up on a bowl of oatmeal .....

I must just have always been away from the aircraft when they went out. Not like I fueled every single one that took off (although it did seem like it some days)

I bet you can find something faster than a BRZ/FRS at USAF.

Feed the speed monkey there.

And best of luck on your path!

Theres a DIY on how to make your own buttons to retain the cruise control functionality. See YouTube link below.

I put a Custco (spelling?) on mine and find it's a major improvement over OEM. Cruise control lever remains in place.
