SAN LUIS OBISPO - At a quarter past noon on Jan. 21, a U.S. Navy F-18
Super Hornet jet fighter flown by a combat-tested pilot named Richard
Webb appeared over the Edna Valley and streaked toward San Luis Obispo
County Regional Airport.

There's nothing new about discipline. He deserved, and received, the
same treatment as two F-4J pilots who buzzed their former tormentors at
Warner Springs in 1969.

That pass was low enough for jet-wash to collapse a guard tower and
cause an instructor's near-fatal thoracic splinter penetration.

Clunk, clunk on the long green felt.
