They seem very calm during an alert scramble

[@wcate8301]

Doesn't look like the Hot Pad scrambles I remember from cold war days. Our Alert Fives sat cockpit watch in their Phantoms, under an umbrella if it rained, or in an air-conditioned flightline shack if it was too hot. Their gear was always donned and adjusted, and their helmets sitting on the glareshields, all plugged in. Huffer carts and ground power plugged in and running within 20 seconds of the klaxon, and the birds would be taxiing out in less than two minutes. Thirty seconds at the hold short for the ordies to pull the pins, and cleared for takeoff, expedited climb. They averaged one or two "live" scrambles a day, and got pretty good at it. If you were in a flying club plane teaching a student (as I was), you made yourself scarce, real quick.

what does "made yourself scarce" mean? What does it have to with teaching a student?

[@wcate8301]

​@paogene1288 , there was a Navy flying club on base, and I was a flight instructor there. We used the same runways and taxiways in our Cessnas and Pipers as the military jets did. If you were in the traffic pattern for the active runway when a scramble was called, you promptly exited the control zone in the direction Tower ordered, or you orbited in place, well clear of the traffic pattern. In any right-of-way contest between a Cessna and a Phantom, "tonnage always wins"! Sharing the airspace with fast movers was a good experience for students to have, right from the get-go. That's how I learned, as well.
