Your point? They ARE fighter pilots...


So because they ARE fighter pilots they chose a rising sun to represent the
Sundowners? Are you saying fighter pilots are stupid?

Maybe "rising sun" was a poor descriptor for "sun on the horizon"? How
can one tell by looking at a logo if they are looking a a depiction of
East horizon or West?

Fighter pilots are not stupid, but, they occasionally may be
disoriented. At least AF pilots can always orient themselves by the
base runway--for the poor nasal radiators the runway keeps moving and
turning.
