    Thanks for the vid Pete.

    Those were the days when there were different flavors of aircraft instead of mostly lawn dart F-18's

    IMHO, they should of kept the Tomcat (F-14) and just spent for updates, avionics, etc.

    I remember at Miramar when the phase out of the F-4's and phase in of the F-14 was going on.

    Before that the F-4's for the F-8's. And so it goes.........

    Thank goodness the background music was not some form of Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone".

    I still like that song, despite hearing it on the flight deck, ad nauseum. NC
