Speaking of things that go boom in the night, I'd kind of forgotten that we now are working in similar fields. If you care for alphabet soup, I'm out west of you working as Deputy RSO in NDT at ABL working for ATK. (Allegany Ballistics Laboratory at Rocket Center, WV)
I don't suppose you ever come out this way in your travels? I'm about 4 hours from Alexandria.
Scott PS. Not to nitpick, but the clip of the F-4 breaking up clearly has AIM-9X in the captions, so somebody was taking liberties with their interpretation of "SLAMRAAM"...

About the only thing that has me scratching my head is NDT, since that means non-destructive testing to me.
Nothing currently on my schedule to get me out there.
Last point, you are correct - since use of an AIM-9X was never a SLAMRAAM option. Or was it...
