It's a decommissioned East German IL-62 airliner named Lady Agnes which landed at Gollenberg, Germany in 1989 to be put on exhibit there... (More info) Gollenberg is considered the "oldest airfield in the world" as Otto Lilienthal, a German aviation pioneer, was the first person to make well-documented, repeated and successful glider flights there in the late 1800s...

Yet you don't post a single pic. Tsk tsk, my friend. For those who are wondering what Brick is talking about, go here: https://www.craigspegel.com/#grips

Not sure all of these will show up, but I gotta give it a try! And Rainman has been spotted again!

Busted!

Something like this? https://blog.medalsofamerica.com/civilian-wear-quick-guide-medals-ribbon-racks-non-uniform-articles/

Let's see... Looks good to me!

Time for Maj T.J. "King" Kong!

The only time I will even consider squeezing into the old uniform (it's been almost a decade since I retired) would be a military event in which I have a role. For example, I commissioned my nephew last year when he graduated from college. It was an extremely proud moment for me, and I made sure I could fit into my service dress for it. However, for anything else, I will wear the appropriate civilian attire. Plus, that way I don't have to shave! Cheers! M2

Damn, didn't realize who prevalent this is! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!

Check out Military Arms Channel on Facebook, they hope to have one reviewed in the very near future. Apparently it's been done before, copying off a paintball guns set-up. There's a debate as to whether it is worth the money/trouble.

Weird...

Is it the actual video or just the link? All I'm seeing is the link, and not an embedded video. By the way, using Firefox v43.0.2. Cheers! M2

Nope, tried it a few times and still only get the link and not the embedded video. Cheers! M2

Air Force manpower management has always been a clusterfuck, it just gets worse sometimes more than others. I am not against a WO program, I just know the USAF won't adopt it because of my first sentence. It works in Army aviation where those who want to fly go that route and those that want to rise up in rank and command become officers. The AF has been breech-loading its people--and especially its officer corps--for decades, and I don't see any improvement in the immediate future no matter who becomes the CSAF. Everyone thought that Welsh would be the redeemer who unfucks all that was done by those before him (Schwartz, Moseley); but it doesn't seem like that's going to happen. He may be a nice guy, but he's not the savior everyone thought he'd be. Unfortunately, I see that continuing to be the case for the time being. One exception, kudos still go to SecAF James for canning Flops in Blue. I never thought I'd see that happen in my lifetime, and maybe just maybe it is an indicator that there is a change on the horizon but I still won't hold my breath....

See?

Not it's not working in the Gun Talk thread... https://www.flyingsquadron.com/forums/topic/11254-gun-talk/?page=205

That's how I normally do so, but it wasn't working for me. I'll try it again...
