your right about the Tomcat---can't understand what they were thinking-but
as I have said before---if that can keep alomst 50 year old B-52's
flying --they can certainly do it for the Tomcat.......


F-14s age much faster due to higher stress loads. For one thing B-52s don't do
cat shots and wire landings. If B-52s had to do the yanking and banking F-14s
do they'd age much faster too.
