As an ex F-15 Eagle Keeper I have a  rumor for you. I was told by an
SR-71 pilot that unless they crossed an ocean it was considered a local
flight? We were both at Andrews AFB for an airshow at the time. Was he BSing
or is it true I always wondered. by the way what was your afsc? I was 
a 32672 (comm/nav/ecm)
