| So the other day #10903 & #10904 disappeared from our (Vermont ANG) flightline. I assumed that had left over the weekend. Nope! Because we had a DV Jet coming in Monday they were moved to the commerical side of the airport. So early this morning they blast off before 6 am (I love it when they wake up all the haters) only to return with one broke again. Needless to say these two are still stuck on US soil. |

| 176FS pilots delivered the latest batch of F-16s as indicated by the latest article. From what I've read the 176th is a ANG unit equipped with block 30 airframes. Does there have to be type qualifications between the blocks or can any block 30 pilot just hop into a block 52 and fly it? |
