Don't you mean practicing surrendering to the Canadian and American
navies?

Their aviators already tried that:

We didn't like their aircraft, or their uniforms.

"Forced to land" for an overnight in Atlantic City? Hah!! Reminds me of
when I was in the AF in Colorado. AF/Navy/Marine training flights would use
Buckley ANGB as a destination. Amazing how many of those suffered
mechanical problems on late Friday afternoons in the winter -- and just
happened to have skis and other accoutrements tucked away somewhere on the
airplane! :-)

I know military pilots that used to keep their flying hours up by making
trips up to Pease Airforce Base in NH, just a few miles from the lobstoer
vendors.

Is this the same French Navy that got a handful of thier fighters stuck
in NJ last week?

Heard a report about a couple of French fighters and a weather plane
from a carrier in the area being forced to land at an NJ airport
because they ran low on fuel. Seems they couldn't make it back to the
ship because of bad weather. (Makes you wonder what the weather plane
was doing.)

One of the pilots tried to buy fuel with a credit card... but he was
over his limit or something.

Just a little jab at our 'great father' in Cleveland (Avon Lake) who
like to preach how the unwashed commoners should behave...while he does
the opposite.
(remember Jim Baker & Tammy ? of the PTL club??)

Don,
I must be half asleep, it still went over my head. I remember Jim and Tammy
but I don't see how it relates to pom pom and the military
It's ok, don't worry about it
