Seriously... He DOES however, hold the record for time logged in A4s, an award given him by Tailhook yrs back.
Just think, Flug we served with guys like this. What an honor!

BzB how many hours did you log in the A-4?
HOLY BE-JESUS! Did your pen get a little fat towards the end of it? I'm trying to get 2,000 Phrog hours before the old girl is retired and my back is killing me! Are you in some sorta perma-traction after that many hours? One thing's for sure, they didn't know about "ergonomics" back in those days...4,245 A-4 hrs..
4,245 A-4 hrs..I'll post a pic of the plaque soon (buying new camera). :ghost_125
New blog going up tonight (funny)! :jester_12

His last flight was a TA-4J, so maybe he ended with a VT DH tour? >4K in model is amazing. Hell, >4K hours TOTAL is amazing these days...Out of curiosity, how did you do this? Was it Operational -> VT -> Operational -> Operational DH ?
I still can't help but wonder if Skeeterman is reading this thread, waiting to post in another forum about how to edit a photo using Photoshop...
