Yeah, I can just imagine the outcome of a Marine crew chief running into an army hanger to "grab a part" in order to keep his bird operational!!  :Rofl  But it does make sense. I'll believe it when I see it though. Maybe the folks that decided to keep throwing money at the old Phrogs instead of forcing the Marines to buy CH-60's aren't around any more.


Any pilot that tells you he's never been lost is either lying or he's never been anywhere.

You have to remember they are talking SOG................  Not the service as a whole...............  USAF, USMC, USN are all going to have F-35's, how much do you think will be interchangeable?...............

Cheers
