This model is for all you Tomcat and Captain Dale "Snort" Snodgrass fans....

This is my most recent build and an ambitious attempt at recreating one on the most iconic Tomcat moments in history. The model replicates what is affectionately know as "The Shot"

I'm sure many Naval aviators are familiar with this image. For those who may not be familiar with it, this short blurb from John Sponauer's interview with Captain Snodgrass sums it up nicely.

New Combat Systems Officer course opens in Pensacola

by Capt. John Severns
Air Education and Training Command Public Affairs

5/5/2010 - PENSACOLA NAVAL AIR STATION, Fla. -- Air Force aviator training took a huge step into the 21st century Wednesday, when the inaugural class of Combat Systems Officer students began training here with the 479th Flying Training Group.

As they sat down in classes this week and began a new year-long training program, the CSO (pronounced "Sizzo") students became part of a fundamental transformation of Air Force training that started in 2002, when then-Chief of Staff Gen. John P. Jumper ordered a redesign of Air Force navigator training.

Just thought I would pass some of this along since nobody actually has a clue about the reserves until you join.

Pay: several different types.

AT (annual training), ADT (additional duty training), and ADSW (additional duty special work) are all the same as when you were on active duty. You will receive base pay, flight pay, housing, and food. How much you can do per year varies depending on the annual funding allotment but you are guaranteed 12 days of AT per year.
