[FedCom] Re: CAP Aircraft Callsign Changes?? Re: Civil AirPatrol"High Bird" Operations Callsign Changes?

CAPFLIGHT is a Civil Air Patrol assigned aero callsign it is not a callsign 
for fighter aircraft...  NO one else has posted any info to reflect that 
fighter aircraft anywhere on Combat Air Patrol's are using the CAPFLIGHT 
callsign.......
