Instantaneous power, two pilots to do it, no pain of aerial refueling... You guys should give the E-2 pilot bonus to the NFO's in the back that actually work for a living!

No stability, need to use rudders, and the second pilot's a distraction.

Power on is instant ish, but the 8 blade doesn't take power off instantly. (Yeah, that took some getting used to)

As a old single seat guy, we always said that we never met an NFO that we wouldn't trade for 200 lbs. of gas.

NFO's have great value. If you have to punch and end up in a survival situation you have 200 pounds of meat and a thick pair of glasses to start a fire.

Hahahahaha!!

Navigators. What's the difference between a retired Navigator and a large pizza? A large pizza can feed a family of four.

Haha! I say that with the utmost respect of my navigator buddies.

Kinda.

C'mon guys... no need to pick on the Hummer drivers. Contrary to how it may feel, it doesn't actually enhance your ego.
