I agree -and "Broker " said it all- COD aircraft deliver
"guests" all the time, the S3 I guess was picked because
it is a warplane.When I served (VF51) every cruise-
we lost an airplane - so there is some danger.

By the way, the use to entice lowly airmen to re-enlist
with a catapult shot and landing.

I don't see this as being all that dangerous, but it certainly is a publicity stunt. I thought we moved past publicity stunts when the clintoon was finally kicked out of office. :(
