Sweet Jugs ... errr, Jug... , yeah, Jug! -Gregg

Thanks Murph. Those of us that don't know don't know what we don't know! -Gregg

And the F-14 ... -Gregg

True, has the AIM-120's range increased through it's generational improvements though its size hasn't increased? I guess its mostly done through motor and fuel advancements. Maybe even warhead improvement also. -Gregg

Sweet Photo Spook! Phantastic Phinish! Love those Fujimi Phantoms! -Gregg

There will be a few Marine F-35C squadrons to fulfill Marine Carrier Air Wing duties. -Gregg

Black Knights transition... -Gregg

My friend was onboard Connie in the late 80s during the fire she sustained. According to him, the ship was never the same again, warped decks, lots of doors that would not shut properly, persistant mechanical and plumbing problems, etc. I doubt they'd ever drag her back into service. -Gregg

No, they wouldn't but when said aircraft comes up for repaint and they're at sea, chances are its going to be a less colorful scheme. I guess I just haven't worded myself clearly, sorry. -Gregg

Yes, I realize that Dave , I just meant that maybe the Jolly Rogers' may have repainted their CAG jet in more subdued markings compared to the recent Anniversary markings due to possible combat ... -Gregg

D'oh, I confused it with the -27 markings! It seems there's less formality these days on some of this stuff. -Gregg

Yes but its a single seat jet with DCAG on left and CAG on the right. -Gregg

Just a guess but the CAG might be a WSO . -Gregg

Wow, great stuff Holmes! Thanks for sharing the links! I've saved them! -Gregg

The only times Hornets have worn LGG over white was special schemes like during the 100 Anniversary of Naval Flight, etc... -Gregg
