Lt. Col. Tim Schepper has flown B-1B Lancers for 22 years. He has spent 208 days in B-1 cockpits becoming the first pilot to surpass the 5,000 flight hour plateau.
Congratulations to you, LTC! I, too, logged 5,000 flight hours in my military career, but did it in UH-1 helicopters. Because my Hueys had only a 2-hour fuel load, I got to perform more landings than you did. Also, much of it was performed below 50 feet of altitude, and while wearing night vision goggles. And once in a while people were shooting at me. I believe you when you say you don't know any pilot who doesn't love flying the B-1B. I can say the same about the grand old lady, the Huey.

OK, settle down guys beating your own drum, the Colonel's achievement was brought forward by Boeing. This is all Boeing's announcements. Send your logs to Huey&Company and we'll watch the vids. OH! by the way, what service, what action and what was the goggles model number? Usually most night LRRPs, SEAL drops were much further than 2hrs and most were done with the 'Jolly-greens', just sayin. Maybe there are a few Marine Huey pilots here on this thread that will know when heavy night-vision ops began?

My military service was serving in VF84 Jolly Rogers. My squadron CO surpassed 10,000 hours in 34 different aircraft. That was an incredible feat, and at the time a Naval record. Congrats to this guy. 5000 just in one plane is a great achievement. And thank Boeing and President Regan for providing this wonderful aircraft.
