  1. I just pissed myself from laughter. If there was a video, the narrator would need some sort of creepy eastern European accent lol.
  2. Nothing a few cold crisp coors couldn't take care of. Spoken like a true gentleman
  3. https://www.airandspaceforces.com/article/0698tigers/ NKAWTG
  4. Aww man, I just got my tickets lol.
  5. It was a little harder getting ATIS in the Huey single pilot. We were so slow, it'd change several times from the time I was 7 miles out to touch down. So much ATIS. I have nightmares about it.
  6. Those are crazy mfers man! It doesn't feel natural to pull over the horizon without wings lol.
  7. As a former FCF pilot, thats "nuts", big huge ones lol. Edit: Fully articulated rotors won't fall off like a "semi rigid" (sts) underslung rotor. Lol. This gave me one more chance to use "semi rigid" in a professional conversation. Hats off to the old dudes! They did a lot of crazy shit before I was born. Loops in 53s, smoking in cockpits and fix to fixes without the GPS lol.
  8. https://youtu.be/VC2E8RJE3Jo Edit: Huge nutsack alert!!!
  9. I did a lag roll pretty close to my form partner in T-6s. My instructor let me do it. It was my rec ride for form in T-6s. Other than my checkride the next day, it was one of my last memories of flying upside down, as I tracked helos.
  10. Hey Guys, Big Gulps….lol
  11. Thats how you CRM
  12. This. 100%.
  13. Definitely a different mindset needed for crew vs single pilot ops (Who's gonna get ATIS? lol). Regardless, if it has afterburners or not. UPT should be a base to establish these different types of mindsets, not the operationl units (sts). A dude with pilot wings should know the basics for the type aircraft he's flying when he shows up to the Sq. Crew based flying is a little different. It's hard to share lol.
  14. Looks like negative Gs made that monster fly out of some lady’s (or Eagle Driver’s) purse. Lol. That’s an ACARs message I never had to send as an FO. Lol
  15. https://www.thisdayinaviation.com/tag/james-phillip-fleming/ Drink a beer for this dude!!!
  16. "Speaking of pinch. Do you mind if i use that method? It works for me"- MP. "You're not doing a F2F, you're fucking homing"-IP Biff. Lol If you're reading this, no harm bud... That was a good trip!!! 👍
  17. Im pretry sure the fat chicks at Scooters/Crappys won't care what they're flying. Lol
  18. The first 4.5 seconds are my favorite lol
  19. Thats a real shocker lol
  20. The NDB is the best instrument approach around lol, I bet the Army still has a few lol. Yeap, you should always know basic instrument techniques. As much as I hated doing a F2F, I always gave one on check rides (before it was removed from the 11mDS vol 2 ). One day (crazy world war or alien invasion), those moving maps and GPS waypoints may not be there or be that accurate. That trusty TACAN will always be there. Lol
  21. Can we go family style?
  22. "I said two engines, not one you incompetent son of a bitch!!! And now you have to do air to ground stuff. I'm leaving you for an Eagle driver" - Wife (more than likley a trans wife lol) of husband who dropped Vipers. Lol. Something like that I imagine.
  23. That's bad to hear. I imagine how excited I'd be if had to take my first bite of the AF shit sandwich as a 1Lt. A big bite. No matter how people say "That's life and such" it would really suck to have dropped a UAV out of UPT, regardless if it was Heavies or Fast Movers. It would put a little chip on the brightest young Lt. That was bad time for AF morale across the board from what I remember. It put a real stink on UPT for a while. That's for sure.
