I wonder how long it will be before something major breaks after being shutdown and re-started and shutdown and re-started and shutdown and......? Big machinery doesn’t always behave well when subjected to such treatment.

“BFRC”...Ha! I haven’t heard that term for a good long while. N2O4 is nasty stuff. The hydrazines will give you cancer if you even think about looking in their direction.

I, too, met a Tuskegee Airman. I met the gentleman at a HazMat training course in Atlanta held nextdoor to Dobbins AFB. While we were doing hands-on training exercises, there were several F-15s doing touch-and-go landings. As the 15s were doing tight turns very nearly directly overhead (you could see the pilots in their cockpits), he remarked, "I'd give my left *** to get a ride in one those."
We struck up a conversation and he identified himself as Tuskegee Airman. He revealed that he had flown in WW2 and Korea. He clearly enjoyed flying. The country can be proud the achievements of these men..
