Good ole Grandpa Pettibone ? CL

Affirm. Whiskey does lead to the Tango or the virginia real and others. CL

It looks looks like today is the day. http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/US-Perfect-Storm-Ship-Reef/2017/05/10/id/789225/ CL

Correction, YAP has Fs and Gs. CL

Not easy reading. Marine pilots are Naval Aviators and sport Naval Aviator wings. I believe they don't get their wings unless they are successful at carrier landings in their advanced flight training. In RAG training i have no knowledge if they have to be carrier qualified in type, F-18 or ? these days. US Marine Corps F-4 and F-8 squadrons were deployed on the America, Oriskany, and Midway. Good post Xreal. CL

You forgot "hey rube" CL

YAP CL

Hawkeye or Greyhound Gunship ? CL

bitchin' A spring Christmas stocking. CL

ooh, it has the jungle penetrator too. CL

This is all I got. CL

Interesting seeing the changes from full gun cruiser to guided missile cruiser in its life. CL

oh yah. from SF1 site. http://combatace.com/topic/53750-20mm-for-ov-10s/ Killerbee allready did the data : CL, Make a Folder in Your Weapons called "GPU-2/A" and add a copy of the suu11.LOD in it. then use the Info below for the Data.ini. [WeaponData001] TypeName=GPU-2/A FullName=GPU-2/A Gun Pod ModelName=suu11 Mass=266.000000 Diameter=0.300000 Length=2.150000 SubsonicDragCoeff=0.200000 SupersonicDragCoeff=0.770000 AttachmentType=USAF SpecificStationCode= NationName=USAF,USN StartYear=1965 EndYear=1985 Availability=2 BaseQuantity=24 Exported=FALSE ExportStartYear=0 ExportEndYear=0 ExportAvailability=0 WeaponDataType=3 GunTypeName=20MM_M197 MaxRounds=300 MuzzlePosition=0.000000,1.000000,0.000000 LightPosition=0.000000,1.150000,0.000000 AimDirection=0.000000,1.000000,0.000000 EjectShells=1 EjectPosition=0.000000,-0.550000,-0.100000 EjectVelocity=0.000000,0.000000,-2.000000 Now You'll need the Gun Info and put it in Your "Gun" Folder.....

It will give You below. From your video link it appears the GPU-2A does not need us to increase the pylon load limit. the OV-10a had 2 strapped on. I have been dreaming about the GPU-2A for awhile but I thought a fictional 50 Cal GAU-19 stuffed in a SUU-11 pod body could be sooner obtainable with data ini tweaking and give us more bang bang then 7.62 does. Bitchin' video link Crusader. I never saw that one before. CL

Nice. A Seawolf. CL

For our helos, A-1s, T-28s, OV-10s, A-37s and what. And this also. CL

Hmm? Just saw this on wikileaks. I hope its carrying the Buttler Building materials for the club and not another batch of high maintenance special warfare wannabes. CL

Oh yah I see ditch hawks single or triple flying over my house, on weekends from what I think is Boise to Fallon. The best was back in the 60s when the H-34s would fly over our house in HB from MCAS Tustin to their ship at Long Beach. CL

If its the yellow sparrow missiles the BAs did fly with them CL

Yah same sierra with the Coral Sea, CV-43. I did a cruise on it when it was "San Fransisco's Own" on a helicopter squadron. She was the 1st and last carrier to cruise with A-1 Skyraiders. The Midway is a museum and CV-43 is not. In the not too distant future any body who shaves with a blade will have the USS Coral Sea to use. CL

I'm sorry I'm so productive in my personal life I didn't notice. CL
