  2. I wanna see the King dead.....after he does an 18 minute Bonham style drum solo with those magic staffs lol
  3. I just pissed myself from laughter. If there was a video, the narrator would need some sort of creepy eastern European accent lol.
  4. Nothing a few cold crisp coors couldn't take care of. Spoken like a true gentleman

    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.

    Those are crazy mfers man! It doesn't feel natural to pull over the horizon without wings lol.

    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.

    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.
  12. Hey Guys, Big Gulps….lol

    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.
  16. 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
  17. https://www.thisdayinaviation.com/tag/james-phillip-fleming/ Drink a beer for this dude!!!
  18. "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!!! 👍

    Im pretry sure the fat chicks at Scooters/Crappys won't care what they're flying. Lol
  20. The first 4.5 seconds are my favorite lol
  21. Biff_T replied to norskman's topic in General Discussion
    Thats a real shocker lol
  22. 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
