Another thing to add. If any one of you see me at a boogie somewhere this summer, please introduce yourself. It would be cool to put faces to names. Actually, I'm not good with names. But I'll have beer!!!!!:D


well We may have a better chance meeting at redflag or something, but If I see you I'll introduce myself, even though I'm not a girl:ph34r:

If you look at the centerline station on the belly there is a large canoe looking thing. That is the TARS Pod, it takes really cool pictures and that's about it. I have a targeting pod on my jet so in case something happens, I can use my wingman as a "mule" and laze his bombs in.

I fly a Piper Warrior. Can I get all the chicks too?

Oh wait, that'd make me gay...

Nevermind! :P

Next week I'm looking at flying this... B|

Look at all that >a-hem< cargo room!!! :):):)

Maybe I can get a cool pic of me in all my flight gear in front of it, too! -Yeah, my...sweatshirt and baseball cap. I'll even get a pic with my wingman. He's a Canadian goose named 'FOD'. :|

High-tech shit I work with, I tell ya! (and I don't even have a license yet :o;))

Nice pics, but if they had been taken from a car, my reponse would have been "shouldn't you be watching the road?!?" :D

what i was talking about is that there is no targetting pod on the jet in P1010001.jpg just the pylon.... normally if there is no pod they always remove the pylon too....

ever heard these guys do the "fighterpilot song"? www.dosgringosrocks.com/ it is soooo freaking funny!!!

You need to get pics of you using the ejection seat or your wingman. Don't worry my taxes will pay for it.;):P



Just spit soda everywhere...

:D:D



Trust me, if I ever have to punch, I'm logging that jump!!!!



At MacDill AFB in Tampa, they have a big annual airshow. There is a handle that is clearly marked to blow the canopy. A few years back, a bonehead spectator did.
:S

Parked on the ground. The handle was attached to the outside. I don't know much about it, but apparently, it is something used by ground crews to get pilots out.

It was clearly marked with a nice flag. Somebody pulled it to see if it worked. :S It causes a LOT of damage to the plane. Something like $200K.
