We currently have a dictator and radical Islamic terrorists killing each other...am I the only one who thinks this is the best foreign policy we have had in a couple decades?

11 Years and a Colonel?

So what is it? A UFO? The Russians? The Chinese? NOOOOPE. Buddy finishes our normal AR with the TACAMO's and they drop into STL for transition. Hilarity ensues. ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI) -A mysterious white plane drew plenty of attention Tuesday afternoon near Lambert Airport and nearby Maryland Heights. The low flying four engine plane came low over ranch style homes in Edmundson and prompted some to take photographs. Janice Marienau of the 43-hundred block of Beauty in Edmundson started to photograph the plane after it flew over her family’s home three times. Then she called FOX 2 News when calls to Lambert Airport and Scott Air Force Base in Illinois turned up no explanation. “We thought it was unusual because we thought why not Scott Air Force base, why not Mid America where they don’t have a lot of traffic,” Marienau said. The low flying plane raised even more questions when some military jets took off at Lambert. “I was telling my mom and my brother they were so low I think if somebody jumped out of it with a parachute they wouldn’t have had time to open,” she said. One of her photos, when enlarged, showed a U.S. Navy white star in a navy circle and the word Navy on the virtually all white plane. Navy Commander Ed McCabe cleared up the mystery. “It’s a strategic communications plane we use like a radio in the sky.” Pilots from Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma were taking advantage of the good weather to do some training in the Mercury E6. Commercial as well as military airports serve as practice points for low approaches and touch and go, Cmdr. McCabe explained. “They need to see a variety of airports; the more fields a pilot sees, the better prepared he’ll be,” said McCabe. It’s routine training for new or experienced pilots that is all done with the permission of air traffic controllers at the airports. https://fox2now.com/2013/08/20/large-white-plane-flying-in-pattern-worries-some-in-st-louis/

Common sense has prevailed.

To play Devil's advocate...what happens when a Jewish or Christian religious scholar decides to write a non-flattering book on Muhammad? I don't think the book is gonna make the best sellers list, that's for sure.

THIS! I left -135 PIQ with 644K points.

I'm neither a C-17 or -10 driver, but I can say I picked based off location and I have no regret. I love the -135 and I guarantee I would have loved any other jet just as much. TL;DR = TFI is the best thing known to man.

This guy is infamous around the -135 community. He is batshit insane.

A very hard read. RIP Brandon and crew.

I agree Israel should have the option to buy all these from us if they wanted...I am not sure us giving them away for free is the smartest choice.

I was talking to an Aussie at the Green Been a couple days ago who was doing that for their helos. He really seemed to be enjoying his life.

Yea, I had to shake my head at the fact that she couldn't read "her" letter because it was written in cursive. And when did they stop teaching how to write and read cursive?

Nice girls car...

So Israel and Al Qaeda are on the same side? That's a first.

Hope she enjoys her first double track w/the autopilot inop. Or hell, first sortie downrange with the autopilot inop. Hello 10 hours of hand flying.

So who has a really high speed LPA? All we could manage was a limo...so this would be major one-upmanship right here.

I agree, the scene at the end of the credits was more like the one after the Avengers, good for a chuckle but not a teaser for anything else.

Aren't 747s fly by wire? The stab trim brake on the KC-135 is mechanical and I really hope the 747 doesn't have the same bike chain we have for trimming.

Damn. Too much of this lately. To the crew.
