glad it's only one of the two.
 
I cruised with the Varks in 84 & 86 when they flew Tomcats. I'll never forget those ORANGE flight suits.

Ask Schnugg about those flight suits. He has some good pictures, if you like seeing grown men in traffic cone orange.
 
You mean this post:

Yup, we wore orange as regular Joes. We were only test pilots exploring the edge of the flight envelope, when our pilot's said, "Hey, watch this" inflight.

Moboards suck, the way its taught at OCS sucks, the person teaching it (if still around) sucked at it, at SWOS you learn an easier method and then forget it which sucks. Luckily there are now computers on the bridge that give auto CPA. God help us if our SUPPO stands watch.
