    Finally routing my package

    What exactly is it that you "don't wanna do" as an NFO? :confused: F/A-18F doesn't suck. NFO gets the same paycheck and chance at command as a pilot.

    Missle (?????) seen near jet flying over Texas

    Had a friend go face to face with a cruise missile on a low level NE of Sand Dog. We only saw it in his HUD on the tape playback. Oddly, no one ever took credit for it. :D

    Missing Air France Jet over the Atlantic ...

    Three rules of Thunderstorm: Avoid, Avoid, Avoid. Having flown through two nasty cells in my career, I would never do it again even if you paid me real good money. We probably bordered on the upper edge of severe turbulence and we were tossed every which way but loose, lost comms, iced up and...

    SWA Tire Fire @ HOBBY ???

    Those flames were good size and licking up under the wing pretty good. I'd be curious as to what tower said to them to perhaps instigate the evacuation..."Your're on fire" is what comes to mind...???

    Sea Air Space Expo in DC

    I attended the luncheon where CJCS ADM Mullen spoke. Very interesting. His points: People #1, families #2, parts (everything else) #3 Shift of focus to war in Afghanistan vice Iraq. But a big takeaway is he's been out of the budgeting process for 18 months as CJCS.

    Anyone know how to find an old NAVADMIN?

    I got it to count. Used a service record entry, a signed certificate from the CAG, FITREPs, orders to CVW-14 at the time and list of eligible operations for the AFEM from the web site. This earns me 6 more days a year paid vacation in 1 year into GS employment instead of 3.

    Not for chest candy. I'm trying to determine qualifying military service for my GS job. It can only be campaigns or expeditionary awards since I'm retired. It will add to my GS service time and change my vacation earning accrual rate. Which is worth money to me. PERS is telling me my time...

    The need for Speed

    Been to mach 2.0 at just a tad over 50k feet in an F-14D. A very smooth ride. F-14 A will easily hit 1.5 to 1.6 in an easy descent from 40k in AB. It just wants to keep going faster.
