Ram

Maybe so...but is she HOT? haha

Yup.

Haha...that reminds me of these two:

Sometimes that's not really a bad thing... While at KPHX...Cutter Aviation on a CT XC weekend: Hot blonde ramp girl: So this big thing is your machine gun, right? (points to T-38 pitot boom) Me: YES Girl: So, like, how many knots do you have? Me: TWO BIG ONES (seeing she doesn't get it, I say) Oh, about 600, or about a mile every six seconds Girl: WOAH! So, uh...is that faster than just about any car can drive? Me: Hmm...I take it you're not a mechanic here, eh? Ok...so that last line I only said in my brain, but I was thinkin' it. Although she was dumber than a box 'o rocks, I don't think anyone cared. And I keep going back...

I'll bet that sucked. HD

Ok, ok, ok... So not all of my ideas are good ones. After a couple beers and during a boring night of washing my bags in the ol' laundry machine, this SEEMED like a pretty funny thread. Now I realize... This thread = So lock it if you wish. I'm done.

So being a :cunning linguist" is good? Hell, if AETC is offering free language courses online, how long before it's a requirement to make O-4? I'm not against learning a new language (pretty cool to do it for free, sts), but with the direction that our USAF is going (think "soverign options in cyberspace"), it makes ya go "hmmmm."

extra credit, actually. EDIT: Laundry is done...screw you guys, I'm outta here.

I knew it! Beer? Check. SportsCenter? Check. Waiting for laundry to dry sucks, people. I'm bored off my ass.

STFU, graybeard!

This topic should get some decent discussion going... So what do you carry in your flight suit pockets? What about your G-suit? Other pockets? Here's mine: Flight Suit Right chest pocket: Wallet and SQ coin Left chest pocket: USB jump drive and elastic "pen band" Left Sleeve: Cell phone, chapstick, earplugs Thigh pockets: Nothing Knife pocket: Gone Left ankle: Nothing Right ankle: Flight cap and Oakley soft vault/sunglasses G Suit Left pocket: Checklist Right pocket: Red "crack to light" glowstick, silver mylar blanket, piddle pack, LED flashlight (clip to zipper type), and (if I'm going off-station) my Garmin 96C Helmet bag pockets Extra piddle pack, flashlight, extra nomex gloves So chime-in with what you got on ya. I bet us BaseOps-ers carry some crazy shit...

Does that thing get SportCenter? I've been trying to get that on the color MFD in the T-38C, but I've yet to figure it out. I figure that maybe it would be nice to update my fantasy football team while Stanley is doing loops or flying localizers... ...yeah, that WOULD be a good use of the avionics.

Anyone know where to get started on the correspondence stuff? Any websites with a step-by-step, or with gouge?

Toro sent me a PM that the thread title had gotten clipped or something, so he changed it. I have no problem with it, so neither should anyone else.

Yikes.

ERAU had a pretty rough Christmas. This afternoon, a tornado ripped through their flightline and destroyed most of their airplanes. Here are the gory pictures: My sources say they lost 50 of the 65 aircraft, and their Mx hanger got hit pretty hard, too. [ 26. December 2006, 06:04: Message edited by: Toro ]

Ah, and then there's there "other" gray for certain T-38Cs: https://www.airliners.net/open.file/0752006/M/ Moody's IFF jets, I think. [ 22. December 2006, 07:09: Message edited by: Fury220 ]

OB/GYN Nah...not really, but someone had to say it.

oh god, that is GOLD...I'm taking that to work. I almost choked on my beer.

Not true, but ERAU awards credit for PIT and some RTU's. I got 8 of my 9 electives written off as a T-38 PIT grad, for example.

Dead bug!

I've flown 6 rides now in my pilot training career so far and I haven't crashed yet. So by my math, my IP has saved the AF $30,000,000. (six T^'s) I think that qualifies my IP for something right?

oh man - 4 year flying tours would be sweet... ...except for FAIP tours :(

Fill in the blank (usually a Bonanza) and that's how most GA accident investigation stories begin...
