I've seen open Buff bays at several shows, where you stick your head up

of an (inert, obviously) four B28RI clip, for time (the load team was
practicing for some SAC competition). Talk about having every move
choreographed so as not to waste a second, all the while working from
multipage checklists in plastic sleeves held together with three rings.
snip good story

Anyone know if "quick turn arounds" are generally practised for the
heavier platforms in the USAF/USN/USMC (obviously at least some of it
happens with the above story), or is it mainly limited to CAS types,
for whom every minute on the ground is another minute you're not on
the cab rank?
