A friend at Laughlin told me that they had an overall pilot projection shortage for the year, and they had to augment their numbers by pulling from CSO/RPA/alternates/etc. Laughlin seems to have the best mx and moves the most pilots, so that’s played into it as well. Additionally, they’re implementing a new program combining T-38 phase and IFF fundamentals that they’re calling “FBF” (Fighter Bomber Fundamentals) which is expected to move more pilots through that track. Something “going down” made it sound more dramatic, but that’s all I know.

Apparently this happened two days ago but got overshadowed by current events. A Bolivian C-130 crashed into a crowded street, killing numerous people. It was also transporting cash for their National Bank and riot police had to be called in to subdue looters.

What took you so long.Isn't that 101-0 the Albinos stat line? I think some Mudhens were downed in Desert Storm.I remember F-16 and A-10 losses during DStorm but don’t remember any F-15 loses.Saudi F-15Ses have been downed to SAMs as well, so the perfect record stands I think? weren’t there USAF F-15E losses back in Desert Storm?Huge screw up by the armed forces of Kuwait but if you have spent anytime there they still remember we came to help in 1991. Crazy footage of a local helping one of the downed aircrew. AQPptBFZfFsqf2ZHbYpb9V7qHpW1-JsI53iyUMhoQSXUDo5xmSeP6u2yxdp4efHy-SQSIOmF-O6ICHrQSIkbkUbtEtWaKNapNJQnuF7TutDcyA.mp4
