Well aware of it. Wasn't that wing a carry over from the F111B program for the USN ? No. If anything, the B model wing was smaller than A. Don't quote me on that. Actually I think the FB-111 and the F-111B did share the same wing, they both had a wingspan of 70. Never liked 'Varks. It took way too long for the airplane to become operationally effective. Folks who drove them almost universally had a "can't do" attitude. Few fighter pilots in the organization. Oh boy if Kurt Todoroff sees this.... Ron Pilot/Wildland Firefighter |

In article .net, says... I think I would have heard about it too because in the 1980s my cousin CPT Malcolm Quon was stationed there and an incident like that would have been as infamous as the one where some dufus put a CP tent up in a dry river bed at NTC and got washed out. It wasn't just a CP tent ! It was the whole DAMN UMCP GRmprrrr Morons from Montana. My Det, G Troop's maintenance section and the maintenance guys from a Canadian recon troop were attached to assist them. I was NOT overjoyed to see the same warrant office sitting across the table from me in November at the JRTC D540. LOL! That makes it even funnier. BTW, did anyone remind the WO not to put anything in a dry wash this time? Snark |

I work in the S2/S3 shop now....... I think we need him to go "recon" down --- that-away- The poor truckers! Snark |

Maybe running the rail yard at Pinion Canyon or something. -- When dealing with propaganda terminology one sometimes always speaks in variable absolutes.
