I'm transferring to a new Fleet Support Team here at NAS North Island and it's been a hectic morning.
I went from the Fleet Support Team that worked on these to the FST that works on these, but I'll still be working on CNI (Communications - Navigation - Instruments).
Cool stuff.
UPDATE: For those that are interested, HERE is information on the F/A-18 C/D Hornet and F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet.

Posted by: Cait at July 22, 2004 05:39 AMWell, I answered my own question. They are F-5E Tiger II. I'd never even heard of them!!! And apparently the new one you're going to work on is the Super Hornet, F/A-18E/F. Well, way to go.
Posted by: Cait at July 22, 2004 05:45 AMActually, the Tigers that I worked on are now called F-5N Tigers (Navy variant); they're used by the Aggressor squadrons in Yuma and Fallon.
And I don't know if I'll be working on the Super Hornets as opposed to the regular Hornet - both are still cool.
