Awww crap.... ANOTHER one I've never seen!  As far as I knew, there were only two birds that wore the SEA scheme.  This is NEITHER of them!!! 

I'm gonna have to look up both of the tail numbers that I have to see if this is either of em!

yes, I was wondering about that one, because you're book indicated the early birds with the TAC camo had light grey undersides......but this one doesn't.  So I didn't know if it was an early bird or something the cav guys did on their own?  Anyway, it's a pretty cool scheme.......

While Jon, if you ever revise your book, you can add them. Read that book from cover to cover when I got it(Before I started hanging out here)
