Not sure we need that. As long as we can spot weld some tailhooks onto whatever our pilot-type members are flying these days (or catch them in those fancy pop-up cargo net things), we already have our own little air force, right?

Designate it the P228.

It's going to look a little odd with tiki lights running down the sides of the flight deck.
