The P3 jobs were alway far and few between, but I loved the look of those things with the radome on top. I assumed the domes came off the E2

The mixing of Customs and Border Patrol flying (CBP) hasn't gone well, with a lot of finger pointing back and forth. I was good friends with guys on both sides, but most have retired now.
Yeah I know a lot of guys, in both the Jax and Corpus squadrons. You are correct that the dome was off the E-2. Customs didn't follow the Navy's fatigue inspections initially and that's why they are now in a pickle.
