sandiego89 ... I have no doubt that the USAF had/has some very capable aircraft and indeed crews. I was thinking more in the context of their employment in CONUS, where perhaps they got/get rather less practice than we did/do in the UK.
Apologies if my comment caused offence.
PS: Glad to see the VA weather is cooling down a bit. Arriving 31 Aug for 2 weeks vacation/shopping in Alexandria
