What the fuck?
This was never any good at all.
He did break into the Death Star and rescue the princess
>>63621672
He didn't even have a ship or money. Obi-Wan did everything for those teenagers.

It's a fairy tale, not a war drama.
>>63621600
oh you need a hug.

>family killed by empire
>longtime neighbor and briefly apprentice to Jedi (a rebel leader)
>risked life to rescue princess Leia (a rebel leader)
>delivered superweapon plans to rebel hands for analysis
All this serves to demonstrate his loyalty to the Rebellion.
>fought his way off Death Star.
>demonstrates piloting skills on simulator (unfilmed scene, it was in the script and appears on the radio drama adaptation)
>vouched for by Biggs.
So he becomes a pilot then and there.
I'll concede that it's still a bit of a stretch but if you assume the Rebellion had more ships than pilots at that moment, it's not unreasonable for the rebel leaders to take anyone they could get.

Hmm, you're right it'd never happen, um, except maybe to:
Lance C. Wade Texas farmboy who joined the Canadian Air Force at age 25, fought and became an air ace in the Battle of Britain.
Star Wars: lacks technical accuracy--?
Take my advice OP, don't try to imitate a grown-up until your voice changes.

The most decorated soldier in us history was exactly this
>>63623960
Pretty sure that didn't just suddenly happen to him in one day and luke was a only about 18
>>63624334
Luke was 21 read the wiki you ignorant little midichlorian.
Luke was the son of the chosen one and had possibly the highest midichlorian count in the galaxy at that point.
Bear in mind that his dad while he was half his age was already winning extremely dangerous racing matches and singlehandedly fucked up the neimodian blockade by annihilating their mothership.
>>63624517
Luke was born 19 BBY.
Episode 4 takes place in year 0.

>Obi-Wan did everything for those teenagers.
Obi-wan made Luke sell his landspeeder. Then promised Han money he didn't have for the difference.
