Looks like a definite maybe on the Bell 505? Haven’t heard the RW folks here in ABQ talk about it much though.

Your link is bad and might not be the SOAR. The NYTimes article says MH-60 and special forces but the U.S. Navy operates a small fleet of MH-60R/S helos that support ASW and SOF.
Regardless, a sad day.
Tracking the Navy also has MH-60’s that do SOF support, but they don’t do HAAR and all the links said it was during an air refueling event.
You hit the nail on the head with the last line though brother. I was selfishly hoping there’d be minimal chance I knew those involved. Not great odds now.

160th SOAR crew, damnit. 🥃

I take it this isn’t the outcome the interviewer looks for with the “You call a go-around and the Captain continues the approach” scenario…

Its hard to articulate the difference in words but choking a dog with jumper cables is not socially acceptable. Catching and releasing a fish is. If i saw a person choking a fish with jumper cables I would question his sanity.
I love lamp
I do believe I’d just grab a beer and see how that last one played out though!

Which Baseops.net forum members have written anything supportive of Hamas burning and decapitating children?
I do believe Biff was speaking in hyperbole. @Biff_T I realize that’s a lotta syllables I just banged together there, but I got ya! 🍻

McJay,
What airshow are you referring to?
I have no idea what your post is trying to say.
Sorry Huggy, words mean things!
United Airlines is sponsoring a Fly-in/Car Show Sunday up at Rocky Mountain Metro. We’re sending some aircraft up to talk to CO area cadets, but we’ve also been told there will be opportunities to speak with United folks about future employment opportunities. Because… accelerate networking or lose, or something like that!

Full story of the Rivet Joint incident finally coming out. We came EPICALLY close to Article Five thanks to incompetence. Crazy that both missiles failed thankfully saving the 30 man crew. This could have been FUGLEY!
Rogue Russian pilot tried to shoot down RAF aircraft in 2022
I doubt Article 5 would’ve been invoked, but thankfully we won’t know thanks to Ivan’s incompetence. Historically speaking, the Soviet’s shot down 15 of our aircraft during the Cold War outside of combat zones and we never invoked Article 5.

The Duke City. What a cluster of a town. It kinda reminds me of Barter Town in Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Lol.
Dont get shanked by a transgender Native on central. Lol
Thanks Biff, now I can’t get the image of MLG saying “Who run Barter Town?” out of my head!

Miranda Viscoli, co-president of New Mexicans to Prevent Gun Violence, applauded the governor’s order as a courageous and necessary step to curbing gun violence, even if the measure’s legal fate is uncertain.
“If it saves one life, then it’s worth doing,” Viscoli said.
gee where have we heard that trope before?!
If you want a fun look at how willing people are to believe that shit, pop into the r/Albuquerque subreddit and look at any of the posts dealing with this.
Not only have most forgotten all about the impacts of State and Federal government overreach during COVID, they forgot how frighteningly close the major cities were to a major societal meltdown. I can’t retire and GTFO of here soon enough.

Not sure if anyone will find this useful or not, but I made a map of the CONUS domiciles.
