As I recall, the AC got downgraded for awhile and was reinstated a few months later. The USAF was not very tolerable of guys messing up. Fortunately, I had some classic f-ups that flew under the radar. That's what happens when you upgrade a 1st Lt to IP, give him a heavy jet, a crew, and tell him to fly internationally about 90% of the time. It was a steep learning curve but it was a frikkin blast!
