Walt-

I think it's a GREAT use of my tax dollars - keeps it out of the hands
of some jobless liberal low-life! And thank you for your generous
contribution, too, Walt, old boy!

Go Air Force!

Now if we could get the swabbies from Annapolis and the whoops from
that old place in New York with 200 some years of tradition unmarred
by progress to join the fun, we could have a fun series!

(yes I know the gliders were donated).

Kirk, I hope those DG 1000's they just bought were donated too. *And I'm
all for keeping my tax money out of the hands of liberal low life. *The
swabbies would probably want to do all their landings arrested. *Don't
get your G suit in a wad, I'm all for glider training for our life
takers and heart breakers in blue. No matter how you cut it, our tax
money is paying for at least part of this. *'74 huh? *Looks like you
missed all the fun.

Yeah, we had to be satisfied with waving at the war protesters during
the Noon parade...

Yep, we paid for the DGs with our tax money, so at least I can pretend
that all mine went for bombs, bullets, and gliders!

Seriously, considering the fiascos the AF has been through on other
aircraft purchases, sounds like the DG buy was pretty smooth.

Speaking of G-suits, mine is sitting right here in front of me at
work, next to my helmet and other assorted "I Love Me" stuff (I work
for the Large Airplane Company, so it fits right in...)

Now, getting in to it might be ugly!

Cheers,

Kirk

I know what you mean. No G suit but I have two old flight suits, one K2B and one Nomex. I can still get into both, I can't zip either of them up but I can still get into them.
