Eglin F-35 crash
Had bad wreck in high school Lots of windshield in knee and arm joints. You could feel it in there most days and then just randomly sitting around you'd look down and see a piece breaking the skin and would pop out.

Marine 130/35 swap paint
This wasn't the run of the mill IFE. There was absolutely nothing a phone number was going to do in this situation to assist or help the crew or anyone else. These guys/gals were assholes and elbows troubleshooting and running multiple checklists. Just clear the airspace around them and leave em' be.

Quibbling. There is zero justification or legality for homeboy to roll down your street and shoot at you with ANYTHING for not obeying an order issued less than 15 seconds from being shouted out. I would have had the exact same reaction as the people filming.- Kim Jong-un Assassinated?!?
