Mike, do they still have AFM 51-37?

So do I qualify as an “old head” or “old phart”?

Post the McPeak era, along with SAC/MAC?TAC becoming ACC/AMC, came a rewrite of old regs given new numbers. Some idiot General came up with this crap in order to pin on another star, IMO. Anyhow, all AFRs became AFIs (Instructions) and AFMs became AFMANs....something about them having a more "directive" meaning. So the old AFM 51-37 is now AFMAN 11-217. AFR 60-16 became AFI 11-206. Many others affected, but those are the general flying ones.
