      Yeah but I haven't see their F-4 on a schedule for a while.

      Or, you could head to the UK. They're doing Tornado F.3 flights until late October. You're looking at around £155 PP though. Dunno how much that is re the Yank dollar.

      Last I saw, the Collings foundation was going to cost me a few thousand to fly in either the Scooter, or the Rhino.

  2. So, I've decided I'm going to collect C&R rifles

      nothing feels better in ones hands than a big chunk of wood and machined steel.

      Right? But my center piece has some serious history to it so it feels a little spooky.

  3. Beyond fucking done

  4. Funeral Detail.

  5. I have decided I will not reenlist in the active duty Army, I cannot subjegate myselt to witnessing my fellow soldiers get fucked over by leaders who live by a double standard.

      It's crossed my mind, Dave. I'm either thinking about going back home and reclassing to 15T or trying to go Air Guard or Reserves.

      ah different on than i was used to. laughed at another vid shot inside a DFAC with most on the floor. guess everyone was the bad kids my time around, only 1-2 would go to the floor, not one two sitting in chairs.

       

    4. Viggen

      Viggen

      Never was in a DFAC when rocket attacks happened. Was always either asleep or at work.

  9. Anyone ever been to the Strategic Air and Space Museum in Nebraska?

  10. Awesome! PCS orders were deleted.

    1. Dave

      Dave

  11. PCS orders? What?! Noooooo!

    1. daddyairplanes

      daddyairplanes

      you'll live.

    2. Viggen

      Viggen

      I've only a laptop so it'll make it. Everything I own should fit into my Cherokee.

      daddyairplanes

      ah saving yourself the exquisite joy of a government paid move. And the joy of claims after said move....

  12. A Soldier, who's favorite service is the Air Force, but who's main interest is Naval Aviation. I'm a mess!

  13. I should crack open that F-4J NATOPS manual

  14. At home, away from work, away from my Jeep, and away from the Xbox. Time for Strike Fighters

  15. After only three days in the field, our two week FTX has been cancelled. Gotta love Aviation!

    1. daddyairplanes

      daddyairplanes

      in signal, the standard would be 10 days and the CO would announce we were gonna do it in 8. then looked like a douchebag when it took 12. in FA the standard would be 10 days but the CO would announce 15 days and look great when we came out at 12. therefore you boys musta been really high speed!

       

    2. Viggen

      Viggen

      Nah, it was really cold. BN commander said this was stupid and started asking soldiers when we should leave.

  16. Packing for an FTX. This shit is way to "hooah" for me.

  17. The Firefox-CombatAce lag suddenly stopped. I'm back!
