They F-16's will turn to 090 and head back toward land. What they do after that is pretty strange, though. I've seen them land on the ocean (something none of *us* have ever done, I'm sure), or fly around the Bay for a while then head back out to sea. I followed one back to land, then he disappeared. The fun part is that the MiG's will be about a mile behind you while you're trying to get close enough to the F-16's, and if they decide to fire it gets pretty wild. Incidentally, anyone want a sure-fire method to get a cruise missle? -- Andrew Folkins ...ihnp4!alberta!andrew The University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Remember, when all else is said and done, at least *we* have someplace to park our keyboards.
