Actually, the other way around. The G was #2 and was flown by an IP that
had "99%" H time in his career. A water assisted G will out accelerate

an H
for about 90 seconds


OK, I'm straightened out now. Despite the fact we're an "all H" force now,

the
FTU still puts great emphisis on co-pilots comparing takeoff data when

planning
for a MITO and they site the Castle mishap as an example of what can

happen if
one jet out performs another on departure.

Well that's interesting that they're still teaching that lesson.

That was the first heavy aircraft accident I saw and it wasn't a good thing
to see, obviously. I can replay the whole thing from watching the two ship
taking the active to watching 2 descend below the trees like it was
yesterday. Lead continued on with his departure which called for a left 180
turn back east bound. We all stood there for about 20 minutes watching him
raise his flaps and disappear over the Sierras.

Not saying this is real. It's an obvious fake, but a B52 is capable of creating shock eggs. A shock egg isn't 100 percent evidence of supersonic flight, only of humid air.
