My personal favorite was a WIC ME and I was the only one to make it across the valley of death on the other side of the container. I look up and the Red Air Regen is right over my target, two "dead" Vipers come scooting back, cross the line and do a Split S to come after me. Conan!!!! Where are you chimps?!?!?

One of my favorites. In my EWO days was on a TDY up to Bodo, Norway. Was Blue Air for a big LFE they had that week. We manage to get in and hit our airdrop without getting shot (lots of fjords and rocks to hide in, and our screen was able to keep Red off us for the first 15-20 minutes). As we're egressing, one of the Red Air guys regens, and proceeds to just blast straight after us. My aft jammer was tits up but like I said, lots of terrain to hide in, the front jammer was working, and there was solid overcast layer above so I felt like we had a chance. There were two Blue guys fairly close to me, I'm yelling that I'm spiked (Bitch give me some help!) but they were busy with another regen. Anywho start to notch the guy, GCI is giving me good callouts, I figure he's just gonna fly overhead cause of the overcast layer/mountains all around and then get shot by Blue. All of the sudden my LM calls "Hey I think I see....Holy Shit!!!" followed quickly by Pilot saying "Jesus Christ" and then "Fox 2 on Talon". Guy came right through the overcast, shot us, flew underneath us, then lights the burner and rockets right back up through the cloud deck. My pilot looks back at me and asks WTF was that. All I had was "Aaahh, yeah, they got us". In the debrief I asked the guy how he was able to get below the WX like that and he says he's been flying in the same patch of terrain for 20 years so he knew where all the high stuff was based on where the peaks were sticking up above the cloud deck. Can't notch that.

Nobody thought to look down for an AI when we were that low. Edited December 24, 2024Dec 24 by arg
December 24, 2024Dec 24 We need more stories and memes about filing IFR flight plans and shooting approaches to minimums.

Telling the Koreans we were "Talon VFR" and them clearing us for a self contained departure. I think I posted a comment here somewhere about an approach into Sarajevo right after Clinton declared peace in Bosnia.

January 10Jan 10 Maybe they can rezone all of that property to build low income apartment buildings. That's what they (LA and Sacramento) keep pushing down to the cities in Orange County. I feel for the victims of the fire (I can see the smoke from my home) but it couldn't happen to a more smug community. That being said, I pray for the firefighters and the families who can't afford to rebuild.
