as far as i know, you are not disqualified for flying if your eyesight is correctable to 20/20 through certain types of laser surgery. PRK, i believe, is a corrective laser surgery that is allowed while other types (like LASIK might not be). If you're interested in becoming a pilot, go ahead and talk to a recruiter-- they should know the deal. Just as additional information, another disqualifying eyesight related issue is colorblindness and i believe it's almost impossible to be a pilot if that's an issue (like it was for me).

The way I was told, any person with corrective lenses, such as glasses or contacts are not elligible. If you have surgically corrective vision, you can qualify. This is due to the fact that during combat, if your glasses or contacts are dislodged, you can no longer fly the plane/helicopter safely.

Where is it possible to purchase the game Street Fighter?

The game Street Fighter is available in many places, and it depends on which Street Fighter. Street Fighter I is older and came out for Famicon and NES, therefore someone might have to go to a used game store specializing in older games from the 80s and 90s, but their best bet would be Ebay or Amazon. If they are talking about the new Street Fighter games like Street Fighter IV, then gamestop, amazon, steam, and even PSN and XBOX live have either a disc copy or downloadable copy available.


Was George Bush the youngest pilot in the US Air Force during world war 2?

He was NOT the youngest fighter pilot. My Uncle, Paul Coari, was the youngest fighter pilot in World War II. But - I guess since Bush was the president - people think it's okay that he claims to be the youngest fighter pilot, even though he was not.

Is getting front bangs a good idea if you have glasses?

No, front bangs box someones face and even though they are nice on some people I think glasses and front bangs together would Iif it makes sense 'overcrowd' your face. I think either no fringe or a small side fringe looks best on people with glasses. To answer your question: no I don't think it is a good idea.
