Must have prior flight experience:

Bet you a whole pile of Russian cosmonauts answer this ad.
And Buzz Aldrin, of course. ;-)

I suppose jumping off my roof with a hang glider built out of tinkertoys
and a bedsheet would not count as 'flight experience'?

Well, you can try...(now I have this image of doctors removing
multicolored wooden sticks from your skin.)
I'll rely on my experiance of hitting my head on the overhead I-beam in
the basement in my low-gravity simulator harness.
I think Bigelow is getting a bit ahead of themselves though in asking
for astronauts for their space station complex before they have a rocket
to get to it...or a space station complex for that matter. :-D

As implied, I think we each have excellent CV's that perfectly match the
opportunity at hand...
