  1. Found one. Hard to see because of the flash but the positive needle is over at the 3oclock deadspace. I know, fighter guys are chuckling at 5g
  2. Bill was a good stick. Even going past 90 a couple times he pulled out smooth(STS) I have a picture of 02s g meter on my computer at work it's pegged. Guess whos crew flew it's next flight since we were FCF qualified. The co wore his chute the whole flight. The shiny things are popped rivets. Later on back at HRT when the medals were awarded 02s crew got DFCs, our crew got the Air Medal. I joked with Bill that if he had over geed our airplane we would have got DFCs too.
  3. It was time to put away the homemade wine as I was about to enter crew rest for what would be the most memorable flight of my career. This was the third mission of the war for us. A snippet from this book https://www.amazon.com/Ghostriders-1976-1995-William-Walter-ebook/dp/B09VQWY5RP/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid&sr&fbclid=IwAR1vELr1aoqfQjbqO5BywaXVt7DDWvGiBeBh9ZuJL-V4stML3whaaGOFpAY On the evening of January 21, mission planners began tasking AC-130s identically as they did for fighters as two AC-130s were assigned to 30x30 nautical mile “kill boxes.” On this night, weather was good and both crews were advised there would be a fighter CAP available in their working areas. Ghost 02, commanded by Capt P.L. took off first in Grave Digger and proceeded to their target area in south central Iraq.23 Within their assigned kill box was an Iraqi command and control center, which was expected to be protected with AAA. About an hour later, Ghost 03 commanded by Capt Preaskorn took off in Bad Company, en route to their target area. I was on Ghost 03
  4. Some of us miss those days
  5. "in a locked garage next to a Corvette" will be a multiple choice answer in an upcoming Insider Threat Awareness training.
  6. Brings back good memories of rotations to Panama. Some cervesas and chicks sitting watching the miraflores locks. Yeah, we were really watching the locks.
  7. Bringing this back up with a 2fer. I guess this dude really got raided.
  8. I know this is short notice but the Wife may be staying in Columbus tonight. looking for a hotel recommendation that's not in the hood.
  9. Exactly what I was pointing out. Think we could use that here Can't find the article I read prohibiting the CBP from using funds for border security. I think there is some funding for new technology though, not sure.
  10. Single tandem, double tandem, triple tandem. What does it mean, it's so complicated.
  11. It was about the online debate and what some folks thought it was doing to the kids
  12. JROTC and NRA marksmanship training sparks online debate: 'Militarization of kids' | Fox News
  13. I agree with you there. I'm pointing out both are members of the deep state/swamp/establishment. Is this anything new? No. I believe we can thank the interwebs for more news/info coming out to the general public nowadays.
  14. Looks like this administration is finally coming around, $400+ million for border security in this new bill. Oh, wait a minute.
  15. I'm not sure, but I think they do. Let me check with Bernie real quick.
  16. And we'll need pics of the pilot
  17. I don't know of any right off hand. Seemed like he was trying. He did shake things up though.
  18. Quoting myself for uhhello. Not sure how you can laugh at that. You like the establishment? If you do then please defend it. There are some old timers on this board that have seen the establishment/deep state first hand while working at the five sided building.
