    EA guys have to be so happy that they aren't flying the Prowlers any more. No more 3g limit, no more worries about 4.5 bearing eating itself, no more 25 hour oil samples. No more holes in the heat shields around the engines being repaired over and over again. Their new jets have a HUD, and afterburners!

      Friends with a crew chief who retired when the last Prowler squadron transitioned at Cherry Point and can confirm. He called it a flying history museum. His relationship with the airplane went from love to love/hate some time after 2003.
