Quote of the Day
(The commanding officer) ordered the tracer ammo removed... I'll never forget the spectacular results we got. Our kill rate went up from 50 to 100 per cent.

J-79 Testbed

USAF #75752
F-16B
Modified as F-16/79 with a General Electric J-79 engine. This engine was tested as a low-cost and lower-thrust alternative for non-NATO allies. The project never materialised because the standard Pratt & Whitney F-100 engine was made available to all who could pay for it under the Reagan Administration.

Callsign of the day
Callsign "NOSA"
AWACS pilot took the AF's offer to cross from heavies into the fighter world in the mid-to-late 90's. Even though he wasn't an ABM to provide situational awareness (SA), his callsign had double-special meaning cuz, he generally had NO SA but, he came from a bird that was to provide SA to the fight! Hence, he was dubbed NOSA. He was also dubbed Data as in the Star Trek: Next Generation character since he had about as much personality as Data!
