A group of talented, dedicated, and thoroughly freakin' loony
aero-writers hone their comedic talents and vent their pent-up
frustrations at various aero-issues once a year.
Holy Schniekes, That F-16 Has Us In Its Sights --
Commonly used epithet by pilots who inadvertantly violate

"OK, folks... ANN did not suddenly
lose its mind (though, there ARE moments... oh, never mind).
Check the DATE. 04.01.06.
It's April FIRST... a/k/a APRIL Fool's Day.
Get It?
If you believed ANY of this stuff, you have been fooled,
bamboozled, and otherwise become yet another victim of our annual
attempt to enjoy the First day Of April with a little imagination
and a LOT of nonsense. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we
did."

ANN readers checked the date before they got too involved in any of
the stories we publish on April 1st of each year. Happy April
Fool's Day!
