Is Jet blue a Major or not??
If not then get them off the Major Forum.....
If they are ...get rid of the Sub Forum...
Seems simple to me.

I know agsbill...He flew for that cropduster company down in Dixie. He retired from the boys in blue also. He attained the rank of Lt/Col. I believe that is equlivant to a first lieutenant in the Marine Corps.

Hello again...
Some of us just "lurk" because we can't type that fast.
When I got hired at that Dixie carrier I was almost 35...I was the oldest guy hired by them up until that date. I had a little over 6000 hrs and I hoped that I would have my application looked at !!...almost all hours were heavy jet. Just about 1800hrs in the C141...that was before A or B...I was chief of stan eval in my C7 unit in Vietnam...I was maybe 25 or 26 years old back then....I had about 1200 hrs in combat...all in Vietnam....one DFC and 14 Air Medals...I was in class ten on the C5A ...About 3000hrs in the C5 at that time....4800 hrs total....flew her for 17 years...I had the first no flap landing in the C5 and I flew the first "operational" C5 inflight refueling mission on the C5.
318,000 lbs of fuel 49,000 gallons...6 railroad tank cars... enough gas for a car getting 30mpg, 15000 miles per year to go 83 years without refueling.....I've dumped 200,000 #s of JP4 over Tokyo. Six Greyhound buses in the cargo compartment....
I've talked to "wideawake tower".
I enjoy this forum.......I like to see the wheel reinvented.
1st Lt my ass !!
