The Falcon has always been really impressive to me, got in and out of my old airport all the time without problems, and with landing rolls much shorter than the dudes in their C172s. Even the short runway at 3600’, no problem. Granted field elevation was only 1000 msl but still, I’ve had Citations that had to land opposite direction with a 7kt tailwind because they needed the full 4840’ of the long rwy and couldn’t work with the 600ft displaced threshold.

Chug that kool aid!

The Step-130 wasn’t available to be brought in? Pretty amazing all around.

Well build some fuckin shelters already…and get some Gepards, CRAM, etc going. But it’s good to know all this will just work itself out.

Great. With Boeing’s track record for on-time success, they’ll be here any day now! @No One , you could probably add between 1-3 destroyed KC-135s to that list, same attack as that E-3 that suffered a mere flesh wound.

F-35 hit?

Is Iran the Japan tho? Or is it China?

RVS on the KC-767 works…ask the Italians or Japanese. USAF specified a different RVS system for KC-46.

I’m sure many have similar stories from UPT, but one I’d heard was a Saudi student who failed Loadmaster training courses in the US, flew back home, and didn’t make it many steps off the jetway before being executed for dishonoring the Kingdom. In the airport itself.

Joe Don Baker, no shit? I knew it was based on the Sheriff Buford Pusser story. gonna have to track that movie down. Kirsti out btw.

Per Wiki, two mud hens lost in ODS. SAM or AAA

Qatar got two Su-24s so…possible
