Pilot Hours
Flying 4,000 hours in the same type of fighter aircraft is rare because most fighter missions last less than 1.5 hours. In addition, pilots usually change type of aircraft and take non-flying assignments. Active-duty F-16 pilots typically fly about 250 hours a year. More than 3,000 pilots have topped the 1,000-hour mark in an F-16; more than 500 pilots have surpassed 2,000 hours; and less than fifty pilots have flown more than 3,000 hours.
