Sometimes I wish I was young enough to get into the things I hear “you kids” talk about.

Challenge coins, free beer(s) for the same, all these snappy aircraft/helos.....

(I’d dearly love to get myself in a Hornet for a few turns around the area........)

I hear you, be sure to take a Hornet pilot with you.

If you can fly one that guy who just purchased the entire remaining Aussie ones (48/36 fully operational) is probably looking for some folks to fly OPFOR for him. He has a contract to provide the opponent air forces for training.

Tell your grandchildren that, and I am betting they would pitch in to buy you a ride on an aircraft like that.
