#1 Words fail me. I cannot describe how funny this article is. I'm starting to think we could help thin out the Iranian herd by giving them every F-14 part the DoD has left.

#10 "ageing fleet of aircraft mostly dating from before the 1979" When I went on AD (in 1973) my first post school maintenace effort was on a SH-3D (Sikorsky S-61 to you civilians) built in 1966. When I retired in 1997, that same aircraft was still in servise at NASWI as a SAR bird. So it ain't the years, its the maintenance dummy!
(maybe lake marylou has a huge magnetic effect on helicopters)
anybody important inside??
