And you don't use rocket engines?!?  ;)



That's a modification the Corps won't pay for.

It's not fair. The Navy get to use JATO just to show off...

I didn't know Fat Albert belonged to the Marines -- though in hindsight, I suppose it makes sense. A token to the flying leathernecks: "Here. Go fly this fat ass bird while we cruise around in our shiny whizbang fighters."

I've seen it in person and don't remember it saying that. I just see Blue Angel livery and assume Navy.

I saw it when you said that. I'm just saying I obviously didn't pay attention any of the numerous times I've seen pictures or when I've actually seen it.
