Maybe we should just go to LOX, seemed to work for a few decades or so. Yes LOX is dangerous and has problematic logistics but so is JP and things that fly off the rails.

I don't expect there to be a document available for a public link.

No, it would be information dissemination via email/briefing, which happens all the time in every civilian and military organization, even ones with great leaders. Briefings can be delegated to lower local leadership levels and it is still can be effective leadership and successfully disseminated. If you need one specific leader to go and educate folks on an issue face to face, in many different locales, there is either a breakdown in leadership down the ranks, a breakdown in information dissemination down the ranks, or something else that would prompt it. No idea as an outsider what that would be, but I would not say, in any organization, it is normal for only one person to conduct a face to face briefing as a method of distributing the results of a safety related investigation.

From a Cobham (one manufacturer of the OBOGS systems) brochure: "Cobham has established the installation of its flight-proven On-Board Oxygen Generating System (OBOGS) on the Lockheed-Martin F-16 Falcon aircraft to replace the liquid oxygen system (LOX). Minimal modification is required to retrofit the aircraft with OBOGS."
It would seem that if minimal work is required to replace the LOX system, minimal work would be required to reinstall the LOX system (or install it on the T-45). What am I missing?
Is the admiral still doing his traveling lecturing gig?
