During my time in that war, I was glad that any plane with US or Austl. markings would show up and work over the ridge before we had to go up.   We were fortunate that the enemy airforce could not make the trip down to the MLR, as they would have been shot down long before getting half way.  We never had to worry about what was flying over our heads, because it would be "ours".  Thanks you fly boys.
