    The New pit for my money....

    I rode a HD XLC 1200 for 2 years in San Diego on my way to work on the CVN at NAS North Island. It was 24 miles one way. Sure helped with traffic as lane splitting is legal in california. I did that very slowly and very carefully...usually only when traffic was stopped. Drive VERY defensively...

    professional discussion about new T-bird female

    "Kind of along the lines of the first two female tomcat pilots that some felt were rushed through" I was an FRS instructor in VF-124 when that happened. It was ugly. Lots of pressure to graduate them, special AOMs, etc.... Saw it very first hand...flew with them...and couldn't do anything...

    2006 Thunderbirds to feature first female pilot

    Gotta be a good stick to do what she's earned. Best of luck to her. I suspect it won't be long til we have a female Blue Angel. Personally, I think it's no big deal, male/female if they can fly the machine well. Of course you watch the hoopla surrounding the "First (fill in whatever...

    Treatment of NFOs in the fleet

    Unfortunately for years as you may remember...if you attrited from flight school you went SWO. Not good image PR for the the whole SWO community. We (aviators) used to joke that no SWO ever failed out of SWOS and became an SNA/SNFO by default. The reverse sadly was not true. Now aviation...

    Possibility of NFO to Pilot.

    ...because there are no NFOs in the C-2 community, ergo no NFOs in positions of responsibilty in the C-2 community. In the F-18, for example, or any multi seat aircraft with NFOs and pilots, there often are times when the NFO is the Mission Commander and senior to the pilot. The pilot does...

    Possibility of NFO to Pilot.

    So be an NFO or get out. Real simple if you ask me. No one wants a whiney "I could have been a pilot" NFO in their command. Step up to the plate and serve, any way you can. NFO is not too shabby if you ask me. Clearly did not hurt ADM Fallon's (prospective CNO) career...

    A couple of stories about cameras in cockpits... Was just checking into CVW-14 staff in early 95ish when two F-14D had a mid-air at 30K feet. One jet had what we called a classic "John Wayne" load out...six phoenix (4 on belly, two on wing pylons) and two AIM-9M on the wing stations. Mind you...
