Moon Puppy asked if this is where I am showing me a clip

Yep but I was in the sim when this was made. Funny about pilots running us over. Not as much of a concern to me as being diced by a prop or sucked down the intake. I did almost get run over once. A USN pilot came in in a T-Bird and me and a partner parked 2 jets. I stopped him and went to chock the mains and he stuck his head in the cockpit and throttled up. Main gear door hit my leg before I could scramble out. Pilot stopped when the other pilot jumped out of his plane and winged his helmet off the guys head. Ahh good times a long time ago in a land far away.

Anyways if you want to see the whole series that video is from it is here

It follows a course of CF-18 pilots through their training. I was in the sim by this time so lots of them.
 
It was a TV series called Jetstream that ran in early 2008 on Discovery Channel Canada.

Cheers,
