Living the dream
Hal: The change of heart came about because we have a few other aviators from different branches that have really contributed to this website. With insights into their training, downrange exploits, and general good humor with the rest of us. I do not envision us getting "overrun", since we control the updating of the user profiles.
I think that the air force types should have them, too. Hacker and HuggyU2 come to mind as folks who have been great contributers.
I'd also add NAC wings et al. Then again, I'm not the guy who has to all of the geekery needed to make it happen. If some forum members are good at this stuff (as it would appear) then it shouldn't be too big of a deal.
Just my .02.
