Bomb Navy

 

Man, I gotta remember to enable pop-ups on my work system...

Navy formation: same sky, same day. Army spearhead attack: Call in the Buffs. USMC flight check: Can the pilot find the pointy end? I could go on forever......

 

There is a reason the Eagle FLIES over the US

 

Go Air Force, nuke 'em 'till they glow then call in the Marines for night cleanup.

typhoid can always run on over to the nearest airforce base and toss it on the next flight to WPAFB, Im sure Dave could arrange that,,,

I think the best stunt, of all the trade schools, was the painting of the USAF Academy Phantom in Blue Angel colors!

we'll have a lot of airshows here this weekend. Besides the Navy blowout of Air Force, which always has a lot of flyovers and flight demo's; we also have a two day air show here in Colorado Springs.

 

While driving up to the mountain this afternoon, I had the pleasure of watching a CF-18 practice his routine. We'll also have the Canadian flight demonstration team here as well.

 

The airspace could get a bit crowded!

I think combatace should field a team. I figure it'd look something like this:

I think I'll say neutral with the whole navy vs air force thing, seeing as Canada has both but neither are very noteworthy, and I'm a fan of the F-4, which is kinda neutral too.

 

I'm always up to play. :yes:

Man what a game, 33 to 27 final. Hats off to the Navy.

 

you're not kidding!

 

a see-saw of a game and a cliff-hanger all the way!

 

Good game! AF made a game of it for sure.

 

I've been enjoying a few brews......

had an airshow here both on Sat and Sun. I went to that and got some nice photos. The Snowbirds didn't make it in because of the weather though.

I guess that no matter how good the team is, weather is weather, especially in 50 year old planes.

I rather doubt those particular airframes are 50 years old.

Hurts to say, but good job, Navy. Maybe there's hope after all.......................

yeah, the actual planes the 'birs fly were built between 1963 and 67, but the basic design dates back to the BAC Jet Provost of 1955.
