F-102, but then you knew that already..

He flew F-102s operationally as well was the trainers to get there.

Art seems to be under the impression that when you join the ANG
they take you down to Planes-R-Us and let you pick a shiny new
airplane of your choice.
Art is also under the mistaken impression that Bush was at any
time AWOL. He obviously has not clue one about how the ANG works.
Not to mention which he totally ignores Bush's two+ years spent
on active service training to fly this "cheesypoof" ( his idea )
of an airplane.
Art is also it seems completely ignorant.... of the personnel
situation in period when draw down of the military during
Vietnamisation and post withdrawal period meant there were
herds of regular USAF pilots looking for flying billets which
cam from guess where. Evidently the math associated with
M flying billets and M+N pilots is beyond Art these days.


Art is generally ignorant of military aviation.

Guess it was all they figured he could handle.

C'mon, Art; Bush was in the Texas ANG; the Texas ANG was flying the
F-102 at the time; so Bush flew the F-102. So what is your point?

Let's be fair. It was what the TANG Champagne unit flew.

He didn't go AWOL, he was coked to gills when he wrecked
a plane, and he was in rehab after that.

Hushed up because of his family.

Google it.

Including pilots of the 147th squadron rotated out to Palace Alert duty
in Viet Nam, among other places, at the time Bush joined the squadron.

Two years later, the 147th was tasked with training ANG F-102 pilots.

What plane? When?

Surely you can point out the accident report?

Hushed up because of his family.

That, or made up later by someone else?

Google it.

Cite.

What utter rubbish.


Google it.

Why, so we can once again prove that the internet is full of kooky sites
that assert everything from Elvis being alive and living in Bali to the
existance of transporter beams?

What does that say about you Art?

They would only let you sit in the plane, not fly it, it wasn't even a
fighter and lets face it, it was hardly the USAAFs premier bomber at the
time.

Clearly the USAAF realised that you were not worth the trouble, were you?

And they were right, you aren't worth the trouble and it's time to killfile
you - for years you have demonstrated your sheer ignorance here, but now you
are so far into bitter senility that you aren't even worth laughing at.

You've always been a joke Art, now it's just a sad one.

Thanks, I certainly did not. Maybe I should, but I didn't.

Actually transporter beams do exist. What do you think they run hoist trolleys
on?
