Active Duty Drops from memory....there was a Saudi F-15 and 4 or 5 guard guys from the T-1 side of the house.

Also, isn't that the 2nd Growler for XL?

Yeah, the rotating object on the A-10 is far more fun.

And yes, two in a row for XL.

Allegedly it was traded the day of the Sheppard drop, from Sheppard. We had very, very strong "evidence" that we were gonna have the Growler.

We all assumed it must have been some sort of joint-spouse swap....but I don't know why they are sending him there. He didn't seem surprised when it flashed on the screen.

There was a T-38 FAIP from CBM to DLF also. 

 

The Red Bulls need FAIPs so AFPC gave them their pound of flesh from END and CBM.

Yeah, when significant numbers of UPT IPs coming to 38 squadrons keep going to 88s/89s at PIT and take a month to get through TI with multiple TI cert attempts I'd want more FAIPs too. We're not teaching perch anymore so that's one less thing to hook for. 

I'm actually curious how DLF found themselves in such a FAIP shortage?

Under the recent “syllabus revision”, perch setups are no longer a required item in T-38s, along with formation landings and several other items. Don’t worry though, we also cut the number of rides in the syllabus along with the solos to get these new pilots out to the CAF even quicker. Good thing we’ve re-defined it as a “pilot production problem”

Oh good. Just more things the FTU has to teach. What could go wrong?
