I never miss an opportunity to talk to those Ol' guys when I'm at an airSho.   They've been there, done that, and lived to tell about it. I wish I could have Moose's friend's father that was one of the "Black Sheep". I would have really enjoyed that. He was a friend of Bill Jordan's, they served together in the Marines in WW2.

Every now again my dad will forward me somethin one of his Marine Corps League buddies sends him.  This is supposedly a conversation overheard on the channel pilots tune into when flying over iranian airspace.

" Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'

Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'

Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'

Aircraft: 'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait!'

Air Defense Radar: (no response ... total silence)

   

      Got a good laugh outta that one.

We usually have a couple of small grassfires at the AirSho in Midland in Oct. They simulate the bomb explosions with black powder and diesel fuel buried in the ground.
