That's not an F-16.

Kor-rect. GWB flew the F102 *Delta Dagger,* AKA the *Lawn Dart*.

Good thing for the folks who pull building maintenance on that school it wasn't a Warthawg. Though I think the last NY Wartie unit was the 138th FS [former] Boys from Syracuse, now driving the F16 since the early '90s or so. Come to think of it, they've had a few problems, too.

Warthog wouldn't be at FL7, more like 700 feet ;-).

Boys from Syracuse

Do you know why they did away with that moniker? Was it due to some PC-type issue?
