Didn't you hear that there is a high-school club weather balloon over the western part of the US?

Been seeing those (or F5's) a whole lot in Kenna the last couple weeks. Very few 15's and 18's.

The Naval squad that’s down in Belle Chasse was to have switched to F-5s from the F-18s last year or so.

The Louisiana Air National Guard should still be in F-15s.

That makes no sense. That's like going backwards 40 years.

Do they just act as an adversary unit flying those?

Funny to come across this thread tonight. Was putting the cover on the grill and had a Bell TH-67 flyover without his lights on and about half scared the shite out of me.

Apparently Ft. Knox is doing training through the 4th of March.
