even the FAGs will get jealous!
Especially when you send them post cards from the 5 star hotel talking about beer, perdiem and local talent while they are on the boat...

I'm glad to hear that ASW is still the focus of VP mission, although I don't think the P-8 will be as effective at sub-surface prosecution as the P-3.
It'll be interesting. On the one hand, the P-8 is banking on a lot of new and/or different technology to make it work (e.g. GPS buoys, expendable MAD UAVs, BAMS, in flight refueling). On the other hand, the P-3 is getting to the point in its life cycle where the aircraft itself is actually impeding mission accomplishment.
So last I heard the inflight refueling was gone.
