Very nice indeed!!  I'm looking at the 84 in the 84-275 and thinking about the age of these aircraft.  That would be like having P-80s as front line equipment in 1973.

I know, right?  There are still a few FY79 A-10s flying around, possibly even some 78s, and I think the F-15Cs are the same way.  And there are some ridiculously old T-38s.  Like, a-guy-in-UPT-could-very-well-be-flying-the-same-aircraft-his-grandfather-flew old.

Fairly sure there are documented cases of this happening with B-52s.
