  1. I don't even want to know what you were searching for on youtube to find this.
  2. This! Equa made the best fitting flight suits out there. Too bad they went out of business.
  3. Because the AF teaches management, not leadership.
  4. Pretty much. You are wrong. There is learning in ever facet of aviation. Whether it's improving routines, safety, or emergency response. It is our nature as pilots to learn from accidents and get better. We still have dudes land gear up, or at the wrong airport, or taking birds on takeoff and crashing, etc. etc. You can cry all day about "enough is enough" but it's not unique to airshows. People die. As long as humans pilot aircraft, this will be the case. Let me know how hanging out at the local airport goes for kids these days. A lot of kids only get to see fighters and high performance aircraft up close and personal at airshows. Who cares?
  5. The fact that you are even asking this question points to the further pussification of America. Aviation is inherently dangerous. We take risks. Shit happens. We learn from it and move on, but there is no reason to pack it all up and quit just because "one life is too many." Airshows still inspire future generations of aviators, and if it creates a spark in just one kid who will become the next Neil Armstrong and one day set foot on Mars or become the first Ace in World War IV, it's fucking worth it. Death is mandatory. Being a pussy is not.
  6. This. Not even worth an honorable mention.
  7. This is a movie about Strike Eagles at Red Flag?
  8. Not in the Reserves. You can't force a dude to deploy unless you activate him.
  9. No. Chicks dig it. Time for a rehack.
  10. So a guy ordered a TV off amazon and got a SIG 716 https://www.myfoxdc.com/story/19221052/dc-man-orders-television-online-receives-rifle-instead
  11. DBS 2 *shudder*
  12. No really, I don't actually care what some retiree Coach slurper says about.. well, anything. But please keep telling us how awesome you used to be. https://vimeo.com/42139962 Time to move on with your life. You're no longer relevant.
  13. I'm sure lots of fucks will be given by your friends in the retirement home. As for those of us that still actually fly...
  14. What is this "radar termination point" of which you speak? How do you know how far away it is?
  15. Congrats. You're going to like your new trunk monkey. Less talking in the brief.
  16. You're doing it wrong.
  17. But seriously though, it sounds like they're just preparing these dudes for the inevitable Q-3 from the boom operator when their Ipad isn't fully charged. Gotta toughen'em up before they get out there in the real world and all that.
  18. Pardon my ignorance, but how do they make heavy bubbas simulate MOPP4 walking to the jet? Do they make you wear the David Clarks and put on your Aviators? Or do you get to put the hefty bag over your nugget too?
  19. You're dangerous.
  20. You don't need all that crap to land at the right airport. People have managed to find and land at the right places since before Al Gore invented the internet. This is basic airmanship.
  21. BTW, it was banned in the city of Aurora too https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2908691/posts Aurora, Co 1. "Dangerous weapon" includes firearm 2. Revocation of license for furnishing a firearm to a minor or someone under the influence. 3. Window displays cannot include firearms with barrels less than 12 inches long. 4. Unlawful to carry concealed "dangerous weapon" 5. Unlawful to discharge firearms, unless by law enforcement on duty or on shooting range. 6. Unlawful to possess firearm while under the influence of intoxicant 7. Unlawful to have loaded firearm in motor vehicle. 8. Unlawful for a juvenile to possess a firearm. Now this does say https://www.coloradoceasefire.org/munilaws.htm So I dunno.
