StoleIt Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 But what would happen if we bolted treadmills to the wingtips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbar Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Yep. Why do we paint our refueling trucks green? Shouldn't they be painted to match the concrete so they are less vulnerable to air attack in say, Korea, and also keep the fuel a little cooler? I mean, do we really go driving these things out in the woods that much? Is painting them green gonna save them from a terrorist or SOF attack? The Korean AF paints theirs grey-maybe they're on to something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
