  1. 2. The esteemed assembly must judge if said chica was worth a fifty-foot plunge into the sea.
  2. Nah, give me the armed crop duster any day! Taildraggers are more fun.
  3. Shoes know how to play crud?
  4. Kinda curious what his story is on going from Marine chopper pilot to Army colonel. Seems like a well-earned retirement, though!
  5. None of this proves if Vegas is hot or not. Until proven otherwise, I will choose to believe she looks like the chick in Hacker's avatar. Stranger things have happened.
  6. I hope this got sent as a joke, because if not, this dimwit needs to be slapped...multiple times. Of course, a colonel claiming to be single handedly responsible for the success of the war in Iraq is not outside the realm of possibility.
  7. "Sorry, the maximum number of viewers for this channel has been reached" WTF? Guess alot of people like Bob Ross!
  8. Randolph guys don't, but when we were cross-country to San Diego, the guys working at the Navy bases did.
  9. Sort of depends on what version of the MC you're talking about. There's a Talon, a Shadow and a Spear. They all do sorta the same thing, low level insertion of spec ops bubbas and chopper refueling, but I know there are some dudes on here who fly those so I'll leave the details to them, lest I fnck it up. As to airframes post P-Cola...depends on what you want to do. If you want to go Mach 2 and pulls Gs and shit, Strike Eagles would probably be a good deal. If you want to haul stuff, kick Army dudes out the back and go literally everywhere, you might go slicks. If you want to drop a shit-ton of ordnance and strike the fear of God into bad guys, you might consider B-52s. Just talk to your instructors when you get down there to get an idea what their life was like. And be sure to ask, just as you did in your question, about the pros AND the cons. And unless you're married, make the decision for you. Don't let anybody else, girlfriend, classmate, whoever, influence your decision. Make it for yourself.
  10. What I find darkly amusing is that the picture used in the article is actually a 737-200.
  11. You've got seven posts on the board, and you're correcting some guy's grammar. Wow, you're gonna go far.
  12. Hope the Air Force agrees with your plan. Or they might tell you STFU and color and get back to your INS and chart. Lots of surface area there!
  13. Further, when's all that going to happen?
  14. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but in the situation you're describing, the American flag doesn't have to be higher, just to the left of everything else when looking at it.
  15. Besides, Moostang, you, like me, are gonna be a nav. We'll never touch a Viper or an Eagle, so what's it matter?
  16. Two sets of wings...was he a nav or somethin' before flying F-16s?
  17. Four years (well, probably more like five for most of you) and you dumbass cajuns still can't spell GO right. Enjoy it while it lasts, because your asses are gettin' stomped come football season.
  18. This just means the Buff is going to live forever...
  19. All the EW instructors here keep bending our ear with that interchangeable seat stuff, but the instructors navs keep saying no, that's just to get you to track EW. You'd have too many currencies to keep up with to make it a realistic possibility. I've also heard recently the FTU has begun to dual qualify navs right out of the schoolhouse so you have the capability to sit in either seat downstairs. How this will actually play out I'm not sure, but that's what I've been told.
  20. That's a bitch move. Think she planned that? Like, "I'm going to put this general in his place, watch this". Wouldn't put it past her.
  21. Speaking of which, anybody know where to get a pair of Addisons? I think my base supply has them, but their lazy asses won't go check if they have my size in stock. Any suggestions?
  22. Seems to me this whole CSO thing is going to produce a jack of all trades, master of none type aviator. I'd much rather have my EWO be an actual EWO, instead of a dude who got the same stuff I did and is just sitting at a different station. Have a specialty isn't a bad thing, IMHO.
  23. I thought we had 36 at some point...anyway!
