Dead Last

I think Stormin' Norman Schwarzkopf would be a great fit right now... Cheers

AFSOC should have moved to Holloman(MUCH better than Cannon) instead of Cannon and 22's should have been at Cannon, that way when the 22s leave the base would shut down for good... cheers

Management... cheers

Charlie, How's KAF? Get rid of the Shoes at the Deid and it wouldn't be half bad... Until then, I'll take Bagram anyday. cheers

It's been nice knowing you...

The Herk is coming up on 56 as well, 23 Aug 54 if I'm not mistaken. And you're right in saying they definitely don't make like they used to. cheers

A medium sized fleet of these things would be a perfect option to the W's mod. cheers

FALSE... Little Rock for basic qual then, Cannon

Have you gone through Little Rock? The rest of your training will be here at Cannon. You WILL be busy when you get qualed. PM me if you have any questions. Good luck cheers

MC-130W, not HC...

What does that mean? I know what DS is... I am curious to know what you meant.

CH hit it right on the head, we said "we are very heavy and will need a toboggan..." We were at 10k and tobogganed to 7k... yeah we were extremely heavy well above 155k. cheers

EC/ACs arent the only 130's that need the toboggan, MC's definitely need it too. In a recent contingency I fell off the boom at max power, I requested the toboggan and had pre-briefed it with the tanker crew enroute to the track so I thought they would go right into it. When I asked for it the said stand by for coordination, un-fvckin believable! I was slightly annoyed when we had to wait another few minutes for the coordination with atc and then they started the decent without saying anything. I could complain more but I was just happy to have gotten the gas and not needed to divert for gas. cheers

And, your follow on to the MQ-1 predator will be the... MQ-9 Reaper!!! Congrats, I'm kidding... but seriously cheers you're going to need it

I hate you sooo much...

Well done!! cheers

I had my bow on base back at Little Rock, they even had an archery range on base. Shouldn't be an issue... cheers

OIF = Operation New Dawn https://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/02/18/military-mission-iraq-gets-change/?test=latestnews cheers

And great training!! cheers

Has Pyramid gotten any better?

I got the chance to meet him back in '05 and the guy has some stories to tell, if you get the chance it's worth it. I have been in the other theater for the past couple years so it sounds like I've missed out on some gems... cheers

Look mom: Not even at the "Before Starting Engines" Checklist

200 lbs and then you pay extra?!?! WTF? I'm 6'3" 215 and would look ridiculous if I weighed 155 it would be impossible to keep up with. I know many other guys that are of the same profile. But 200? Seriously? Granted I do feel that there should be some line to differentiate between your average human and the fatty but whether that should be at the discretion of the Airline who knows. Maybe they should have a sample space like they have for carry-on bags, if you can't fit in the seat then you pay extra. f'it cheers

The whole thing about having two sets of engines and props is going to be a tremendous ass pain when this abomination starts to deploy... Or when the ever reliable computer $hits the bed. Whatever, I'll continue to fly my 88 model 130 and be completely happy. I'm just saying Cheers
