It's not about speed. He said close in. It's about the turn.

The F-14 isn't the only one. If you're in a Viper fighting a Hornet, you don't slow down below 400-450 because he's got too much rudder and alpha.

On topic, good luck Allegiant guys/gals.

FLL guys start AB training in Febraury, Bellingham should be finished around the same time. I'm not sure the status of IWA, still mixed AB and MD. There's no word on more transitions after that so far. I think we're waiting to get more Airbii on the property still, but I'm not 100% sure.

BLI has its 1st Bus. VBD Pilots are flying the 80s 'till the end of the month when the 2nd Bus come online up there. Funny thing is that a lot of the VBD CAs are fairly new and High Mins....not a good mix for the type of WX this time of year! There's actually a SFB AB guy (JD) TDY'd here too.

And crickets from HQ.. Heard all the poges were shocked. Our gutless leader was out ‘golfing’, lighting up his Cubans. Don’t know if any of you at HQ, caught a glimpse of the good senator stuffing his face in front of the chow trucks. Also heard our ‘cheese-d!ck’ accountants were starring in awe of us through the safety of the mirrored glass. And our new ‘Hero’ was hiding out in Florida? Gutsy move Mav.. Should we expect another limp-D!ck email?
