“Stab” Holmes — father, loving husband, and F-16 fighter pilot in the D.C. Guard. — In August, he was diagnosed with an incurable tumor that grows in the brain stem, making surgery almost impossible. An attempt to remove the cancer was made but was unsuccessful. As you might imagine, there is a long list of expenses that rack up, from treatment to everyday needs such as childcare. Please consider supporting “Stab” and his family with a GoFundMe setup by fellow squadron mates.

Welcome to the latest episode of "Lowdown" on the Afterburn podcast, where we dive into aviation and defense news. This week, we look back into a bit of recent history with iTurkey's failed coup attempt on July 15, 2016, and its impact on the F-35 program. Turkey's shift towards Russia led to its removal from the F-35 program.
We also cover the latest in aviation mishaps, including a tail strike incident involving a 777, a food poisoning scare on a Delta flight, a tragic maintenance accident on a Varesh Airlines 737, Boeing's Starliner mission, and the groundbreaking KC-46's nonstop around-the-world flight.

In this episode of the Afterburn Podcast, we dive into the possibility of replacing the A-10 Warthog with the F/A-18 Super Hornet.
This episode is hosted by John "Rain" Waters who is joined by Patrick "Burt" Brown, an experienced A-10 pilot and Weapons School Instructor.
"Burt" has presented the idea (see article link below) of replacing the A-10 with the F-18 Super Hornet in the United States Air Force. He makes the case for the Super Hornet, highlighting its asymmetrical capabilities, austere field capability, weapons loadout, and joint outside platform. The discussion also touches on the concept of agile combat employment and the importance of retaining the knowledge and skill set within the A-10 community. The conversation explores alternative options such as the Super Tucano, T-7, and F-15EX, but ultimately concludes that the Super Hornet is the best choice.
The conversation explores the viability of using F-18 Super Hornets as a replacement for the A-10 Warthog. The main themes discussed include the need to preserve the knowledge and skill set of the A-10 community, the importance of maintaining production capacity for fighter jets, and the potential advantages of the Super Hornet in terms of versatility and asymmetry. The conversation also touches on the possibility of the Air Force acquiring Growlers and the challenges of organizational change and specialization within the F-35 program.
