  1. Very Handsome ordinance there. Get well soon ! One has got a like a thread where you don't get a warning for saying "drop it" or "retarded" CL
  2. Will the National Geographic map be included to find it as Jake and his Beenie did ? CL
  3. Another successful intercept. CL
  4. Forward deployed. OpSec and need to know only please. CL
  5. Didn't the old AIM-7 Sparrows drop and then light off also ? CL
  6. You can buy the A-1s from Razbam or download Dels Vietnam era SPAD @ http://combatace.com/files/file/12337-flyable-a-1hj-skyraider-for-sf2v-ver-10/ Many others also in the download "barn" CL
  7. Can we just call it the Strato Hauler ? Stratofrieghter Stratocruiser Stratotanker I don't think we can call these birds a miscellaneous whatsit airplane. CL
  8. Nor Youtube either. 1964 was a wonderful year for movies. Zulu Dr. Strangelove Donavan's Reef Goldfinger From Russia with Love. Fistfull of Dollars Father Goose The Pink Panther Viva Las Vegas Ensign Pulver Robinson Coruso on Mars 7 faces of Dr Lao And some Flipper movie I think CL
  9. Ball caps or no O2 brain buckets ? If we get Sean Penn, Jimmy Buffet, Justin Bieber or Hunter Thompson, and a Wooky with the the HU-16 and PBM I won't complain much at first. CL
  10. And HU-16 Albatross. I already sniveled for the PBM Marlin. CL
  11. This should be an easy one. It appears we have 99.85% of the airplane all ready. HC-97G Stratofrieghter. They supported the Gemini space program and SAR missions in South East Asia in the 1960s. http://www.aero-web.org/specs/boeing/hc-97g.htm Interesting. It appears some where painted ADC grey and others stayed bare metal. I'm thinking SPADs escorting and HU-16s would be part of their show after the PJs jump. CL
  12. Add this to my snivel list. I'm partial to D on Nyghtfalls link, The HC-97G SAR Ship.. I belief the Dumbo ( If they still called them that in the 60s ) the divers jumped from In the movie Thunderball was one of these. For the 1950s it appears it will be any of the MATS Skins. CL
  13. Cool. Nonstop to Havana ? Ground objects and flight crew uploaded soon ? Book me a flight please. CL
  14. Here is another one for you. Enjoy CL Those really make Sense. CL
  15. It's all fun and games on a det flying off the beach until SAC is here. CL
  16. That would be sweet for the brown water navy in the Mekong Delta. They where designated AGPs as PBR tenders when recommissioned I'm not sure if the Harnett County was the same class but these would be must haves for Wings over South Vietnam. or Wings Over the Mekong Delta. WOMD ? CL
  17. When you're out of F-8s, you're out of fighters. CL
  18. Affirm. For retardant drops its anchor and flank, tie the next drop to the last. It is linear. Helicopter bucket drops can be spot specific. One wildland fire suppression mission for aviation that i think is reasonably obtainable is the Troop Shuttle of handcrews by helicopter to helispots using the Crater and Cargo method after somebody makes some handcrews of course. LAPES dozers could be fun. After watching the C-130 Wings I would call an engine that was rediculously worn out a Lapes Engine. CL
