  1. On a lighter note
  2. The 8th SOS used to make lobster runs back in the 80s. Monthly thing.
  3. Not enough footage of the girl
  4. 1983 or so, two LtCs in the seats. Right after take off each one thought they were flying the plane. They were both trying to trim the airplane so when one let go the tabs moved. One calls runaway elevator trim, the other says I've got it too. Only took a few seconds to figure out and I had already announced that emergency trim was selected. First and only time I had self induced runaway trim.
  5. Maybe some people learned it while in the military.
  6. Just in time for an election.
  7. This was it. Back then if you were going anywhere in the states chances were good you were going on a 73

    FAA Mil Comp

    This right here. Was my exact experience getting dealing with them.
  9. No, they were 737s Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  10. There were several incidents, and I think two crashes, with the rudder actuator going full travel or something like that.
  11. That's when gunship IOs, Illuminator Operators, who were A431s became loadmasters. Funny thing about that was they had actual inflight duties. Many medals were awarded to them over the years from AMs up to Silver Stars(Viet Nam). I wonder if that FCC was on the Flight Orders.

  13. The stews must have been really hot
  14. I kicked an IF out of my sim one time for telling a student "We do it like this, but on a check ride we do it like this." I was like WTF? Then GTFO and wait for debrief. Some guys develop techniques that they think are so good it'll reverse global warming, then later realize it wasn't so great after all.
  15. Q2s if they screw up but don't violate safety or cause mission impact. I've given two Q3s. One for safety and one that would have caused mission impact. I had to intervene both times. This was pre AFSOC when you had to sell a Q3 to the CC or DO.
  16. I was beginning to think it's natural state was behind a Ukrainian farmers tractor.
  17. I may, or may not, have brought a 68 chevy truck cab, hood, fenders, doors, grill, basically the whole front end, from Chino CA to HRT in a AC-H.
  18. My language is a little rusty but I think he said "I got you mutha fucka, and I hope I got yo mama too!"
