Just FYI, Art: they were still using that "one a day in Tampa

F-4Es of a Replacement Training Unit for the Vietnam war.

There was nothing defective about the aircraft or the maintenance,
either; it was the inexperienced drivers that put 'em there.


Is that from the 1,000 houirs you flew the B-26?

No, but it was from the more than 30,000 hours I eventually
amassed working on those F-4s.

How many hours do you have maintaining the B-26?
If the answer is "none", then you're totally unqualified to
comment on the subject.
