Yes I hear that Richie .It took me approxiately a year to get used to the "roaring thunder" as the landing approach is right over my house .They start their flights early still like at 6-7am and dont finish till normally 10-30 or so at night.There ain't nothing like the roaring sound of freedom.I remember the day of seeing the entire F-14 Jolly Rogers squadron coming in, and now as you well know the Jolly Rogers are now F-18 E/F's.I now see/hear the Super Hornets .You wouldnt beleive how much louder the Super Hornets are than the F-18C's!
The F-18's fly nonstop and often play with F-5's here too!Oceana also has a couple Mirages & also a Mig 29
PS: sorry for the topic shift of your thread,F-14's were just mentioned.Back to the regularly scheduled program now
