157 ARW Aircrew Hiring

The stark irony of this is that the equipment we should have been using for the 20+ years of whack-a-mole was the older hardware and we should have saved the wear and tear and countless AOS moves on the nice stuff. But I digress. Back to our regular programming Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It probably would have been fun to rip around in F-100s and F-104s, be a generation behind the AD and not have to do more than 2 weeks a year. My old unit flew C-133s…not sure I would have enjoyed Old Shakey. Maybe. When I look back at my old unit’s KC-135 to KC-46 conversion and what a pain that was from a training, Stan/eval, funding and MX perspective, I can’t imagine being in the 1950s ANG where units swapped aircraft every 2-3 years. Units like the 104th went P-47, P-51, F-94 to F-86 in a decade back in the 50s I know some units had to deal with the C-21 to the “C-23…no just kidding…find something else to fly”. Conversions are a challenge any way you slice it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
