Strike Fighter Squadron (VFA) 31 "Tomcatters" are the second oldest Navy Fighter Attack squadron operating today. The squadron is based at NAS Oceana (VA) and is using the call-sign "Felix" after the emblem and mascot, the famous cartoon character Felix the Cat, running with a large spherical bomb with a lighted fuse. The squadron became the last unit to fly F-14 Tomcats with the Pacific Fleet and saw the last F-14 flight occurring on 4 October 2006. VF-31 transitioned to F/A-18E Super Hornet and was redesignated VFA-31 in late 2006.

This former Trans World Airlines (N959U, from July 1988) and American Airlines (N959U, from December 2001) is seen during take-off from Kandahar. Weird to see such a sleek civil colourful aircraft taking off from a war location, where camouflaged jet fighters, helicopters and unmanned aerial systems, often fully armed, are operating from the same runway. The MD82 started flying with Kam Air from September 2008. Since September 2017, the aircraft is reported withdrawn from use. Since that month it is in use at an amusement park in Kabul city.
