Here ya go:

I have many...I'll post them in the next post

It's amazing how much incredible work goes into something as small as a 30 second commercial. Nice work!! Fates

Nobody wants War. And nobody wants another Hitler. I'm sure both candidates for Presidency can agree on that.

Firehawkordy said it, but I'll re-state it differently though. What you choose now, will greatly effect the rest of your life in civilian clothes. I've never been in the military, but I have been to college where countless ex- CREW CHIEFS found out that working on real aircraft in the real word meant another 2 years of technical training to get a civilian liscense, The Airframe and Powerplant Certificate. I'm sure this is also true for the Medical field as RN, LPN, CNA, etc are all civilian certificates that may require additional training above and beyond what the miltary provides. This may also be true for any field that you obtain. My advice, in whatever you choose, is to research how it will carry over into the civilian life when you decide to no longer re-enlist (assuming you dont at some time). Choose that MOS wisely, and then make every attempt to work on any civilian certificates of training while you are still in the Armed Forces. <C> Fates

I love this one:

Gotta love piston driven aircraft......well....not really...I'll take a jet engine any day. I spent 7years working on recips in the GA side of things. The other 8 years have been in Bizjets. It's incredible to hear stories all the time about recips and bending props and such....got a polished Warrior prop on my fireplace Mantel:

Raptor...check PM

I would think that they would open up request for beta testing, once a beta version is available. The game is still pre-beta, or alpha. Give these guys time. They are doing a great job putting everything in place, and testing will come in time. Cheers! Fates

Was deleting old email...came across this pic Remoinds me of the Weiner Dog Nationals....

Have you ever just had one of those days were ya wanna just grab your keys, and go home? Well...today was that day. Got called at 0600 in bed with preflight problems, so it was rush off to work without a morning shower and prep the aircraft for its flight...typical pop-up. And guess what, the pilots from the night before left the emer-battery on, and it was down to 4 volts. Well luckily there was a spare ready to go. Well...they wait for the passengers to arrive and then their off to Houston from Indy. About 45 minutes later, I get a call. It's the co-pilot from the flight phone giving me a heads-up on a problem. The co-pilots main windscreen was in-process of delaminating as we were on the phone. He described the area about 8"x12", the size of a sheet of paper. Then we talked about our options, which were continued to destination or return home. Either way, delamination of windshields are a typical aircraft occurence, and in the case of this Hawker, it was actually a deferrable item. The conversation went on for 1-2 minutes, when the co-pilot told me to hold...and then..he told me that the delamination had grown about an addtional 50% within 30 seconds. From his voice, I could tell that he was a little worried, but then it all happened. As we were discussing the options, he stated "OH F**K!!, Gotta Go"...I heard a loud explosion...and the phone went dead. I sat at my desk for 5 minutes very shakin over what had happened. Those were some of the longest minutes in my life. I then told myself that these aircraft are built pretty damn tough, and the crew train and train and train for just about everything. I fired up our aircraft tracker that will follow our aircraft anywhere in the western hemisphere. It displays departure and destination information, as well as Speed, Altitude, and ETA. The first thing I noticed was that their Altitude was 270 and their destination was no longer Houston. As the screen refreshed, they were down to 14 thousand feet. This told me that aircraft control was no longer an issue, and I was preping our dispatch department to get a second crew rolling to launch a recover aircraft to meet the passengers business scedule. Well, 15 minutes later...the phone rings from wonderful Padukah, KY. the pilot had snapped a digital pic of the screen, and used his cellphone to email it to me. Isn't technology great? I was relieved to hear that their descent went well, but part of me was still shaken up a bit. Now...just when you thought you had a day to get caught up on all the paperwork, Murphy sticks his boot up your butt and lets you know he cares! Fates

As much as I Dispise EA, I'll announce that their BF: Vietnam website is lookin good http://www.eagames.com/official/battlefiel...nam/us/home.jsp enjoy Fates

Yeah that was about the best thing...heeh I still didn't see but mayby 3 commercials that were wortha damn. All I seen was CBS promote their station as well as all sorts of typical MOVIE promotions. This year IMHO was pretty lame for the commercials. <C> Fates

Funny you should say that. It seems I spend a great deal of time surfing and reading webpages in German these days. It's amazing that I still remember as much as I do from my highschool days.
