The 10 C-5s are to be replaced with eight C-17s, the Air Force said Friday, March 12. Maj. Cynthia Harris, a spokeswoman, said she did not have more precise dates for when the replacements will take place. The 445th Airlift Wing, an Air Force Reserve unit, flies the planes several times a week from Wright-Patterson to carry munitions, weapons, airmen’s belongings and other cargo from the United States to international destinations in support of the global war on terror. Reservists also often fly the planes in the Dayton area during pilot training runs. The Air Force has seen rapidly increasing costs for modernizing its more than 100 C-5 planes system-wide, including replacing or overhauling their engines and navigation systems. The oldest C-5s date to between 1969 and 1980. The C-17s date to the 1980s and 1990s. The noisy C-5s are among the largest aircraft in the world. Their massive cargo interiors can carry up to 270,000 pounds of cargo, including tanks and helicopters. I will be glad to get those C-17's too. Not a moment too soon.

OH DEAR GOD!

Thank god they are ok.

That is correct sir.

Keep in mind a few things about the TSR and sorry to use the screen shot thread for this info. 1. No pit, using the Jag pit right now. 2. I am having bomb bay loadout issues. (Could use help there by someone who knows what they are doing and has time) 3. Needs better sounds. 4. FM needs tweaking (Fubar512 has that covered) Having said that this is an "as is " package as you all know the reason.

For immediate back ups I use a 500GB external go drive. That backs up my laptop. For my desktop I use 2 external drives and do a double back up. I have alot of files and it takes time but I just drag and drop and walk away. Then after that I will burn all to several dual layer DVD-R's. Make for a lot of disks but my stuff is safe.

The new one by Piecemeal. Check the SF2 Terrains section.

I'm trying Lexx. What is that saying, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink.

Mytai01 hasn't been around in years my friend.

More TSR goodness. Having issues with the bomb bay.

Some WIP's. Out soon Sundowner and the RAF C-130's. Craig and Ant gave me permission to release the TSR as is since his HD crash, its gone. I am getting it up to SF2 standards with Fubar512.

Oh Jeez, I am just an admin everyone. I am in contact with this guy. Thank you all.

Well that is one of the hooks to get in the military. I have no problem with it. You get skills you will use the rest of your life. I do agree with you about the Mid East thing. One nuke saves alot of man power.

Well wish him good luck for me. I am sure he will do fine. As far as the civic achievements go, if he was like an Eagle Scout for example he can get another stripe. That program has been around for years. I am curious, what kind of mixed feelings? Scared for him, proud? I am always willing to listen to someone's feeling on this. It's a huge step for someone to do this.

I have backed up my stuff today. Have you? I still have my shovel!

Whatever gives you that idea?

Oops I guess I forgot to add, you cant go wrong with any choice. That is what I meant to say. But I see you made your choice. So nevermind.

Edwards Korean terrain.

Georgetown is done. UNLV is done. Vandy is done. Notre Dame is done. So far this tourney has been great!

They got one in the local area and I have NEVER had a burger this good anywhere in the world. (I'm a leading authority on burgers. ) It was hot an juicy and the fries were outstanding but dear god this burger was better than.......well you get the idea. I mean these were better than In and Out Burger in Cali. Better than Chesters in San Antonio. They were better than the Fonzie burger here at Foy's in Fairborn near the base. I am going back tomorrow that is for damn sure. High blood pressure and cholesterol be damned!

More of...whatever....

Yes and ones without arm pit hair too.

Falcon FTW!!!!!
