    The "Best of the Best" go to the Air National Guard? Shoot, I didn't know it was made up mostly of Marines Doc. Thanks for telling me! "We can debate the value of AF vs Navy over a few beers anytime", but a comment: Keith was a Marine. Do not equate that to being "in the Navy". The Marines are to the Navy as a flush chain is to an old toilet; Part of it, but not IN it. That point aside, also be aware that Sailors and Marines fight at every opportunity, until someone from the Air Force walks by, then they beat the crap out of those poor guys as a team. Finally, tell me something on a professional note: Since we both would agree that the Air Force has tactical missions in the real world.... Just who is providing EW support for your aircraft? Including the F-117 models back before they retired? Hmmm? Did you know that the Air Force CONTRACTED the Department of the Navy to do that for them? Yep. Right after they retired the EF-111. An "embarrassing fact" if you ask me. End of debate.

    Yes as I remember it was a cost cutting measure to incorporate the AF Ardvark Drivers with the A-6 guys to get all in one airframe at one cost.

    Yeah, but you take the Navy guys off of the boat and deploy them to your typical country club AFB and you ruin them forever! All those shipboard skills deteriorate rapidly. They lose their ability to walk on bulkheads (walls) on a rolling ship, no longer can they sleep under a jet blast deflector during flight ops that's making shit fall off of the walls in their stateroom, they get overly sensitive because they're not used to getting pounded on by LSO's after every trap, their skills dull for their night joinups on a tanker with a low fuel state because the deck's foul, they forget how to read stuff like " - HX S.CHLUIM LoBIC EGAR PNUTL T1" (Interpreted to mean, "No grade pass (shitty grade) high start, settle on chase lineup in the middle, low flat in close, ease gun at the ramp, pull nose up to land. Taxi one wire."), but mostly they forget what it's like to get shot up a dead cow's ass (night cat) and they learn to land at night without their knees shaking afterward. Yup, ruins 'em forever! : ) Mark Davis N44YK (former wing and training qualified LSO) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roger Kemp M.D." <viperdoc@mindspring.com> Sent: Friday, July 31, 2009 6:23 PM Subject: RE: Yak-List: Re: LoPresti Fury Top Gun at AirVenture Booth 333 > <viperdoc@mindspring.com> > > Yes as I remember it was a cost cutting measure to incorporate the AF > Ardvark Drivers with the A-6 guys to get all in one airframe at one cost. > Doc > > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com > [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Bitterlich, Mark > G > CIV Det Cherry Point, MALS-14 64E > Sent: Friday, July 31, 2009 11:16 AM > To: yak-list@matronics.com > Subject: RE: Yak-List: Re: LoPresti Fury Top Gun at AirVenture Booth 333 > > MALS-14 64E" <mark.bitterlich@navy.mil> > > > The "Best of the Best" go to the Air National Guard?

    Subject: Housai oil ring mod
    From: Jay McIntyre <cjaviator@gmail.com>
    Hi all. Anyone out there have any experience or advice with regards to installing oil control rings in the standard CJ6 engine? I understand that there are suitable rings out there being used in the M-14 and the results are vastly reduced oil burns. Cheers, Jay New Zealand
