[MilCom] Blue Angel Pilot Trash-Talks the Florida Central-East Coast!

[GeorgeF.]

You may not like the post but don't kill the messenger, just reporting what 
was heard, the good, the bad, the ugly.

Did everyone miss the point?  I guess so.  I can't believe this, this is 
almost like a military cover-up to cover-up the unprofessionalism of one of 
their own.  Sorry but that is what I heard and I don't feel the need to 
"sanitize" what I hear.  That would be the equivalent of a newscaster 
deleting the "bad" parts of a news story.   In short maybe I should not 
have posted about it here but just put it on the website.  I really don't 
need the advertising of this group in order to gain web traffic as the site 
gets an average of 3000 unique visitors daily.  (during the heat of the war 
it was about 5000).  However I thought I was sharing something with the 
group that would be of interest to the group.  I guess I thought wrong as 
it appears that this group only wants sanitized news, I sure that is not 
the case.

I feel that 99.99% of military personal are very professional and in no way 
was this post meant to argue that point.  Someone emailed thinking that I 
was anti-military/anti-war because of my post.   That couldn't be farther 
from the truth!  I'm as pro-war and pro-military as one could be.  However 
those flying for or are members of the crews of any US Military 
Demonstration team need to show 100.0% professionalism as they are picked 
for  there respective teams because they are the best of the best.   What I 
heard was less than professional and most certainly  not the "best of the 
best".     After all there are a thousand people that would love to take 
that pilots place and probably more deserving as the pilot in question 
lacks the respect and professionalism required by the team.

Those are my thoughts.

Those who would think going "secure" on routine air-air, ATC, comms are a 
bit off base.  I don't think the military would (or could) devote the 
resources required to secure air-air comms.  Secure comms is a very 
resource intensive chore.

Just some quick stats:  For every neg. email I've received regarding these 
comms I've received about 5 postitive.
