Sometimes you read a thread and just say to yourself..."Self...what the ####..." So I'll throw in my 2 cents anyway...C-130, E-3, KC-10 and C-5...it gets as hot as the FE wants it to!!!!

IHTFP2003...just a few notes to add on your post...since returning from the desert AWACS guys haven't deployed, although I'm sure they are looking for somewhere to go. Must be getting bored sitting in Tinker all this time. May be different for the JSTARS guys. I wouldn't call the AWACS guys glorified ATC exactly. That's like calling JSTARS guys traffic patrol. They do learn alot of tactics and I haven't seen an ATC guy control an LFE with 16 to 20 fighters, run CSARS, tanker control and TST's. By the way...if the job sucks...why are you doing it?

Unfortunatly, this forum is labeled "General Discussions", which is why you get freshment ROTC guys asking how they can become fighter pilots and get the F-22! Maybe the moderator could make another forum that is just 'aviation' for those that just want to talk flying.

Q: How many pilots does it take to change a light bulb? A: One, he stands there while the world revolves around him.
