Talk:Soarin'/@comment-63.145.229.42-20120422005720

Assuming the Wonderbolts are a direct analogy of real world fighter stunt performers, primarily North American inspired (Thunderbirds/Blue Angels), they are members of Equestria's air force. Since they're fliers, they would also be officers by requirement.

Soarin was shown briefly in a dress uniform very similar in appearance to the US Air Force dress uniform, and if his devices are correct, he would be displayed as being a Lieutenant Colonel, a very senior rank for a pilot, right before Colonel (Generals do not usually fly)
