  1. Runway 36

    I'm pretty sure they never go with '00'. Though if you really want to know, you can dig out the FAR/AIM :)
  2. Navy Jet Down

    Just wondering, did you guys where parachutes? I would assume no, but I've been wrong before.
  3. Close Call

    Glad you're OK!
  4. Navy Jet Down

    Wrong incident. Haven't seen anything about the current missing crewmember.
  5. There are 17 rivets missing in the starboard intake, and 3 on the port. J/K! Looking awesome!
  6. The car...

    Nice!
  7. Navy Jet Down

    The T-39 is used to train NFO's for fleet a/c since they aren't the one's flying. No ejection system is provided (as previously mentioned). Courtesy of USN
  8. Find the Copperhead

    The way I see it, "Snake Free Is The Way To Be!"
  9. Holy cow! it can't be!

    Hope he has a good back-up band! j/k Good news though!
  10. India's C-130J

    Very nice
  11. Guys, let's take it easy with our theories as to why this accident happened. Let it rest for a while.
  12. Somali pirates target navy ship - Pic sez it all

    Can't believe they did this...again. Also, if they are shooting first, then they are not suspected pirates, they ARE pirates! Argh!
  13. Osprey down in Afghanistan

    Condolences to the families, and a salute to those that were lost.
  14. take a C-17 flight in afghnistan

    I think it's because of the difference in the HUD refresh rate, and the video capture rate.
  15. Hawkeye Down

    Over a the F-14 Association it was posted that the fleet has called off the search, and has declared the missing as 'deceased'.
  16. What if ?

    The AWG-9 on the F-14 could track 24 targets, and lock up the 6 most threatening and launch AIM-54s against them, and that's with 1970's technology. Now, add in modern, high speed digital processing, and you could very easily target the threats and ripple fire against them. Plus the range of the AIM-120D is touted as being near that of the AIM-54.
  17. Kim Jong-il dies at age 69

    Don't get my hopes up.
  18. The problem with that is that only #2 can use smart weapons (sometimes), and the rest go willy nilly on their own. But sometimes ya luck out
  19. That would be a great mission for me, I can't hit crap w/o LGB's or nukes Just pickle of some Willie Pete, and talk 'em on to the target.
  20. Joke of the Day

    "Tough break for Hand Job."
  21. They probably took the doors off of the H-34's to save weight. The Hueys have more power (just a guess [radial engine vs. gas turbine] )
  22. Welcome Home Southernap!
