Sort of like TV deputy Barney Fife who had to keep his revolver unloaded and had one bullet in his pocket that he could load if the Sheriff said it was OK. France is the world’s Mayberry?

SONOBUOY PING!

Click on pic for past Navair pings.

Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.
