Not one foot below minimums. Period. 250 below 10. Period Etc. Etc. Period Thou, wench, shall never utter the name of a sacred wingman. Period. Raindude, have you ever seen a talk by a Naval Flight Surgeon called "Sex and the Aviator"? "Let's keep the peckers pointed North boys.....er...and girls (sts)

Just ahead of the release of "Fighter Pilot: The Memoirs of Legendary Ace Robin Olds" is this review from today's Wall Street Journal, by Dan Ford. The book, written by Robin, his daughter Christina, and former F-105 pilot - and noted military aviation author - Ed Rasimus, will be available nationwide tomorrow. Salute Robin, and thank you to Christina and Ed for helping us to remember this true American leader. This true American Hero. Mike

NO SENSE OF HUMOR ALERT Humor, look into it.

FYI comments like that aren't received very well around here FNG. Just because Rainman is slow and dangerous behind the wheel doesn't mean he can't still serve a purpose. His posts, while blunt, usually carry a lot of wisdom. Usually.

Yeah, forcing a dude to chose (on the spot) between loyalty to spouse or loyalty to bros is kind of a d-bag move. Not a good technique, if you ask me.

Ugh. Wives like you make me want to f-cking puke.

Calling you a c-u-n-t for constantly talking shit won't do any good. You feel cool coming on here and acting like a jerkoff. You should be a sim instructor. UPT students would eat your bullshit up.

I'm glad you "know how the system works." But what usually happens is the receiver disconnects themselves before we have a chance to shut the AR pumps off or close the line valve. What are you talking about? Most the time you guys disconnect yourselves before we get a chance to close the line valve and shut off the AR pumps.

Show some respect. You can disagree without announcing youself as a jerk. Would you say this to her face? With her husband standing there? Act like an officer.

I find it troubling that Mr. Day, the USAF director for irregular warfare, is publicly stating that his camp is 'fighting the fighter mafia on this.' If that's his perception of where irregular warfare programs are right now, then he's pretty far out of touch with the reality. My advice to him is to quit making excuses and start serving the customer better. As an operator, my biggest gripe is the incorporation of a WSO into slow FAC'in. Everyone wants to draw parallels with FACs of yore. And while some (not all) of FAC platforms - A-1, O-1, O-2, OV-10, A-10, F-100 - had two seats, exactly zero carried a nav or a WSO. I think this would be a great mission but if it ends up working like Strike Eagle CAS ("Hey pilot, don't mask my targeting pod, and talk on the radio only by exception!") then you can keep it.
