  2. Yeah...a little bondo and that'll buff right out...
  3. It takes two to tango... Forget the moral/legal implications for a moment. Does it disturb anyone else that the Director of the CIA can't even keep his own affair a secret?
  4. Maybe they know something about upcoming RIFs...
  5. So Rainman should have about 6-9 generations...

    FIFY And I don't recall having any issues with C-2. We outnumbered them at least 6 to 1 at every encounter. We put 'em in their proper place.

    <sigh> It shows how much of a lack of actual leadership they have at the zoo. A good leader says "Knock off the bullshit" and the subordinates react. You don't need to cancel years of tradition just because of a single bad act.
  8. 3rd generation aviator: Grandfather (mother's side): B-17 gunner Grandfather (father's side): PBY Pilot Grandmother (father's side): Unofficial observer in WWII on PBYs (different theater from my grandfather), Civil aviatrix Father: B-52D EW, RC-135S, RC135X, among others Me: B52H EW
  9. https://en.wikipedia....nt_flight_rules Yeah. IMC would have made more sense, but IFR does too. Quit quibbling. Aren't there some kids on your lawn
  10. When your gas gauge shows "E" and you JUST took 110K from a tanker, chances are that your gauge is wrong. Likewise, when one of your instruments shows you in a 6 degree bank while the others show you at wings-level, don't trust the malfunctioning instrument remind me not to fly with you in IFR
  11. Spatial D is a killer. Trust your instruments unless you have significant reason to ignore them

  13. Thank you very much Captain Obvious. That was the joke.
  14. one, PM me for more info. I went through a similar experience, but I'm not going to share all the details with the public.
  15. another "self smart" individual... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_cage
  16. Turn in your issued D-20 dice...
  17. Actual video of the test from inside the test structure. A CD drive literally throws up a CD. I promise: no rickrolls https://www.boeing.com/Features/2012/10/bds_champ_10_22_12.html?goback=.gde_3665454_member_178473235 For those wondering why/how the camera survived, it was in a Faraday cage BQZip01 casts a magic spell of knowledge (+7 nerdiness) Rainmain uses the cloak of ignorance (+9 stupidity). Knowledge is useless on Rainman
  18. Looks like the Boeing folks have a new cruise missile up their sleeves...no, not literally https://stlouis.cbslocal.com/2012/10/25/boeing-successfully-tests-microwave-missile-that-takes-out-electronic-targets/
  19. Whether or not he faked an injury is irrelevant. This kind of behavior shouldn't be tolerated. It's a game.
  20. I'll use small words just for you
  21. Thanks for the optimism
