IIRC, they did this before, right after WW1. They folded the FAA into the RAF. Of course, back then the UK had a "fleet" -- a big one! When aircraft carriers began to come into their own in the late Twenties, the FAA was reestablished.

Now there's hardly a "fleet" to speak of.

With Zero’s spending, can it be far off that the U.S. has to sell it’s fleet to meet the debt?
