They have been using F-14s and 15s for how long tho?

F14's = Naval Jet
F15's = Air Force
F16's = Happy Hooligans

All the above are old jets though. Either way, replacing them with these unmanned drones is just gay, gayer than Brian even. To the pilots it'll probably be like trading in their Ferrari/Porsche for a Toyota minivan.

I love the Happy Hooligans and will miss the F-16's buzzing over with afterburner:)

Speaking of F-16's, I came across these scale models the other week. Powered by real turbine engines, operating landing gear, etc, the real deal. For a 1:8 scale they run about 5k when you are said and done. I want one badly;) Here is a video:

I'll miss the planes. They were pretty old, but they were really interesting to work with and in pretty good shape.

trading planes for rc planes is gay. Whoever decided that should get kicked in the nuts by eric cartman.

afterburner is just a pilots way of saying "I'm hitting CETV y0!!!!"

and my step-uncle is a happy hooligan. he's already had his last flight (it was more than a month ago since his last flight)...as soon as he started training on flying the drones, they didn't want him to fly an F-16 anymore...sad

I grew up with my dad in the air force and i'm kinda partial to the jet noise. It will be missed. The f-16 was a bad ass jet.

Shit, F-16's ain't old...our tankers were made in the late 50s. They're at the top of Air Mobility Command's replacement list.

Wow. I didn't realize those tankers were that old. You must be in competition with the B-52s for oldest plane in the inventory, then.

Yeah, they're up there.

Most of our planes are held together with speed tape, dubble bubble and many many prayers, haha.
