  1. Aircraft get old (F-15's), complex propulsion system (harrier), over use/environment (Iraq/Afghanistan). I was watching a news report on F-16's in Iraq. The report stated that the aircraft are getting a major service every 2 months. this service usually takes place every 2 years at home. So many reasons for crashes. People don't have wings or gills. So submariners and pilots get all of my respect. At least the Devil Dog made it and will be able to provide CAS to the Leathernecks in the field on his scheduled deployment.
  2. Nope, my coworker Tom is, I can't even say the things he says or i will be damned for all eternity I think (at least by my wife). Speaking of Tom I have to rotate off of 8 hour shifts on to his 12 hour shift for 3 weeks to cover for him. His @$$ is bleeding. Hey see, i can be non pc too i guess. I should have said that Operator X is out for UC (Ulcerative Colitis) for 3 weeks using his Sick benefits for a period to be determined by a medical professional. And we have it easy?
  3. Isn't this borderline "political"? I thought I was never depressed because I am well adjusted, did 6 years in the Corps and Mommy and Daddy love me. Oh yeah and i am the minority share holder as well, do what i am told, and built her Dad's: fence, put a new kitchen in his house, installed 1200 sq feet of flooring, painted the house. And then i did all of that over again at my house. Slaves, I mean husbands are happy to help.
  4. Man, that isn't even a question
  5. I was just browsing through some old aviation books from when I was a kid. West's Modern Fighters. I came across the Buc and remembered how when I was a kid, for some reason I loved it (and the A-6). LOVE THE BUC. It is definately one of the one's i would make if i wa a gifted modder, had the necessary modeling software, etc. To those that do, THANKS AGAIN. If and when the Buc comes out I will be one more step towards nirvana, paradise, whatever you call it. And, keep your banana's to yourselves.
  6. Took my wife to Melting Pot in Sacramento for her bday with her brother and his girlfriend. Factor in the drinks and that is steep. My wife is on a business trip for vday so, i stuffed a card in her suitcase and we are good. After hemmoraging cash at christmas we called a spending freeze
  7. F-35 (all Versions) Gripen Eurofighter
  8. Sierra Hotel Mod. I really look forward to this. Made me feel like I was 13 all over again (just this time with a job, a computer and some really talented people that are kind enough to share their hard work with us the untalented). Love macross and I will take these in fighter form only anyday
  9. Thanks for all of the input. Now if I can just get the Majoriity Share Holder to sign off on this investment(She got a new job and i am now a minority Share Holder). Well, she is gone for the week so...
  10. Thanks I will look in to the price. Just saw the price while i was passing through staples.
  11. My current system has 512mb ram. It has two slots, One chip. Will upgrading to 1gb in one slot and the existing 512 mb ram help loading speeds for the TW series? I could go 2gb in the future. Thanks for any input. Is it worth the $100.
  12. Firefox The Right Stuff (it counts) Memphis Bell Tuskegee Airmen Flight of the Intruder Topgun (just for childhood nostalgia sake) Does Airplane count?
  13. My A-4EL Finally got humped. You know when you can't make something work or solve a problem? Well, I walk away from it for 6 months and then out of the blue the wife goes on a business trip and I get it done. Much thanks to all of those that helped back in august.
  14. I think it is safe to assume that this is the old normal for carrier and other maritime ops going forward. Honestly, I think it is a disgrace that they get that close before picking up their shadows though.

  16. I like it. I was a Macross/Robotech fan growing up I would use the skins if you posted them.
  17. I just downloaded them all The sorted them in to folders based on country. I have a WWII folder in a larger folder for all of my TW mods. Worked for me.
  18. The question is how do i pilfer the needed funds from our general fund without raising the GAO (wife's) interest?
  19. This is frikkin' great. I knew you would do this one Wrench. I can't wait. I love the Corsair mod you did recently and this will compliment well. When I was a kid my grandad made me a 1/48 scale Monogram model of each (working landing gear and folding wings). These are my two all time favorites. I love the WW II stuff by Wrench and all the others.

    Cloverfield

    It looked nothing like that. More like a deformed spider with a fish tail.

    Cloverfield

    Any thoughts? I saw it today. Not worth the hype. Godzilla 1998 (which was totally gay) meets Blair Witch (also totally gay).
  23. They probably timed it with Bush's visit to the ME. The following is from GlobalSecurity.org Elaine Sciolino pointed out in her April 20, 1997, article in `The New York Times,' the potential for real conflict between the United States and Iran is significant, `when two enemy navies with vastly different military missions and governments that do not talk to each other are crowded into such a small, highly strategic body of water.' The acquisition by Iran of advanced cruise missiles, like the C-802 model, must be considered a serious threat to stability, given the explosive situation that already exists. Iran's intent seems clear: to challenge the United States for predominance in the Gulf.
  24. Coming down in buckets today so, I decided it was a good time to back everything up. I have an external drive and burn it to dvd as well. I have been lucky so far as I have never lost a HD (knock on wood, or at least laminate that looks like cheap wood.)
