  • This guy "mitchell.alaska" on Flickr has some of the absolute best aviation photography I've seen. Of course, I may just be partial since he's AK ANG and as a result they're mostly CSAR- https://www.f

Funny thing is, I bet the boom would STILL ask for the tail number to be TXed over the radio...

I'm sad I've never had a chance to drop low drag weapons.

Who drops a level HD?

That's fraud waste and abuse.

Fraud waste and abuse would be requiring that 100% of your pilot selectable tailkits be hardwired to low drag every year.

Oh wait.

I do. 10 pops are a suicide mission. The climb from 100 to 300' for release is enough of a pop.

We need to talk.

Hey hey.....this is a legit deployment spin up. ....Any day now we're going to start flying 4-ships and change the SCL to carry Mavericks and HD Mk-82s in OEF. Pay no attention to the UAV behind the curtain, these guys are invested in 100% realistic training for the AOR.

I was not talking about FSWD training. I believe every single sortie should be FSWD and every pilot should fly twice a day. I am even happy to pay more taxes to make that happen.

I was saying dropping HD munitions out of a level pass should be considered FWA.

Who drops a level HD?

That's fraud waste and abuse.

Kind of impossible for a B-52 to drop a string of 45 Mk-62s with SE kits any other way...true story...

Just because you can pull more than 2 Gs...
