Re: F 14 Tom Cat
Everytime you've lost them you've also found them and I had them by the next day so not that big a deal. I will say I sat in the lounge at DIA and watched out the window as a bag fell off a cart and everyone drove around it for about 15 minutes. Finally someone spotted it and picked it up and threw it on a cart that was bound for who knows where, they never checked the tag, I had a good laugh about it.
I don't know what the washout ratio is for fighter piolts but I bet everyone isn't so lucky. I'm just glad we have all these boys on our side, God Bless America.
