  1. I've been teaching that for years and no I'm not joking. I almost got run over by a fire truck after an egress. Almost stepped on a snake once too.
  2. Can't happen this way all the time but there have been several nonstop flights from FL. We took an H to Italy in 23.7. Depends on the crisis I guess. One of the justifications to put refueling on the gunships was to get to the fight in hours instead of days.
  3. Good thing it didn't hit that 74. Wonder if they took off. "Ladies and gentlemen we just had an airplane crash in front of us. We may be delayed a bit".

    CSAR-X

    AFSOC wants the money and thats it.
  5. If I heard the last line in that vid right, she thinks an AR15 is full auto.
  6. [\url] Have to wonder what the decent rate was on the J.
  7. I recall a Moose in AK taking mulriple 20mm hits. It didn't go far.
  8. Standing by for "If it had an engineer" in 3.....2.......1
  9. Yes it's valid. Was not disputing that.
  10. To be fair IIRC the eng called go around twice on the Kuwait incident. In 22 years of flying I never called a go around. I brought things to the attention of the pilot that made them decide to go around a few times. Things like "We're lined up on the taxi way" or stuff like that. Makes sense, less people less chaos and CRM issues.
  11. Eng didn't help the Herk in Blytheville AR.
  12. Same system as my wifes Nissan Titan.
  13. This started really growing in AFSOC shortly after it became a MAJCOM. In two years at Gp DOV I had five bosses run through just to get that stink on. One of them sent an email to all of us about how important it was for us to look good. Shiny boots, haircuts and all that. Nothing about airplanes. Holy shit, we wondered if we were in Stan Eval or SOS/PME school.
  14. A parachute is like a gun. If you need one and don't have one you will probably never need one again. Several bailouts from AC-130s in the Viet Nam.
  15. No thanks. Those look like a gunner tied them down. Big fail I see is straps going across sharp edges. When those straps get pulled tight they are easy to cut.
  16. So, will there be an Operational Diversity Management(ODM) form in the mission folder along with the ORM form?

    My gun porn. The one I lost in the flood looked like this. Simplicity defined and made in 1967. Edit, pic stole off the interwebs edit again because I would never have carpet like that

    Airwoman?

    My "older than you" statement. You could call an E-9 sergeant back in the day, it was in the reg. We would call real Chiefs, Chief, and E-9s sergeant.
  19. I too, was lucky enough to be schooled by dudes that flew Herks/Gunships in Vietnam.
  20. The militarization of the police is disturbing.

    Biden was hired to make Obama look smart. He is very good at his job.

    I tend to agree with you, just trying to get this out to as many people as I can.
