I heard that before they let u fly the planes, you have to go through a spinal tap to make sure you haven't done certain drugs. If anyone could answer this and maybe leave a link to where i could find an answer, thatd be great

Yes, this is true, at least for the Army. LSD remains present in spinal fluid for life, and they don't want anyone who has been exposed to LSD to pilot a plane because of possible flashbacks, etc. that could affect their performance.

I would not doubt it. A hair sample to. I did acid in my youth and let me tell you I seriously wonder if it has anything to do why I am the way I am! They don't want a pilot who's going to crack jokes while there taking pictures of Korea in the their top secret saucer.

Are there any US government pilots in the house?
