The problem with operating military jets from civilian airfields. All the little speed bumps when taxiing. Still if you go by NFR flight procedures, its not such a problem.

NFR! No Frick'n Rules. Just overtake them.

LOL!

No, no, no! It should be more of "I have radar lock, do I have permission to fire?" :pop4:

Tempting Meshman, but that is a vintage DC3 in the background.

You see some strange combinations of aircraft on the taxiways at airports that have both military and civilian sides. I remember flying out of Fukuoka (formerly Itazuke AB) on a JAL 727. Taxiway made a turn so I saw a few of the planes waiting ahead of us: USN C-117, couple Cessna/Piper type twins, a JASDF F-86 and another Japanese commercial jet.
