I did a LOT of special projects at China Lake in my career and really enjoyed it. The flying was great and invariably the "what if" ideas they came up with make you appreciate their passion even if sometimes you'd come back from a flight with a "WTF were we thinking" grin

Pretty much all my flying there was with VX-5 then VX-9. We'd bring our jet down for the week or so since their Prowler was often down for maint or getting modded to fit something new on it.
