I successfully argued a FAIP out of a Buff and into a Viper while a FLT/CC. I unsuccessfully argued a FAIP out of a Viper into a Buff. Rack and stacks are great and all, but they can be ignored.

I'm sure the blue talking point will be somewhere along the line of, "We need good dudes in every community." This is true, but if he was such a good dude, there is a skeleton there somewhere not many know about, thats usually how it works.

I agree that bombers should come out of the T-1 pipeline as well, I'd imagine they would be fought over. I bet big blue just sees the T-38 grads as future T-38 instructors though, just my view from the peanut gallery.
