I think removing formation landings from UPT IS A BAD IDEA.
The guy doing the video didn't think it was a bad idea and I was DIASGREEING with him.
I'm watching another AIB video on the low transition/gear up F-22 landing at Fallon and again - I'm not seeing a LOD. Maybe the USN/USMC is just more blunt about it as the JAGMAN ends with '
find XXXX IN/NOT IN the Line of Duty' etc.... (paraphrasing here - I'm not pulling out the Command Legal Course books here.
)
yeah, I did screw up the typing. I agree, it’s a bad idea to remove form landings in UPT. I don’t think they were a major contributor to the accident rate over the decades that the T-38 has been in service. It’s had several maintenance issues causing accidents.
