If one were to go to Whidbey Island Naval Air Station and watch the daily airshow they would think there is some sort of increased military action going on. P3’s and EA6 Prowlers launching all the time. Of course this is all just typical daily flight activities, however to the untrained and uniformed observer they could think up all sorts of stuff.
No Prowlers anymore, all F/A-18 E/F Growlers. My gawd they’re loud!
