Congressman Matt Gaetz spent the afternoon touring NAS Pensacola.  He spoke with pilots and navy officials about problems with the oxygen systems on the T-45 training jets.  The congressmen then held a news conference about what should happen next and why some pilots are refusing to fly.

Congressman Gaetz got mixed reactions from pilots aboard NAS Pensacola about the grounding of the T-45.  He began by saying defense sequestration has the state of military readiness in disrepair.
