Cool Air Force guy here

Hi my name is Charles. I am currently have been serving in the US Air Force for 17+ years now and currently stationed at Nellis AFB, NV. WE have been having a lot of discussions on MilitaryTuners.com about alternative fuels and how to increase our MPGs. So I joined up so I can learn a lot more as many other Military members are looking at stretching their dollars with their MPG's.

Welcome !
I hope you can find something which actually goes into practice on a broad scale.
I was aware that the military was using hybrids to extend vehicle range, so it's good to see that the military is open minded to new ideas.

Off topic : I've loved fighter jets since I was a kid. ( I would have loved to see the YF-23 win over the F-22. It looked so much more futuristic. The F-22 just looks like a cleaned up F-15. )
