Guess Colbert will have to change his stance!

SWeet!

There are ten people to find: the guy in the skiff (who the CG was looking for, the seven HC-130 crewmembers, and the two Cobra crew.

I think we (and the reast of the world) will be waiting a long time for the A400.

Tragic Link

Very succinctly put.

2 new flight crew positions opening up
DWCAce replied to Typhoid's topic in Military and General Aviation
As a fueler (and a pilot), I've come up with a hell of a solution. Simply give them the planned fuel, none of this 'alternate' or 'reserve' nonsense! Once the engines flame out, they've GOTTA land! And for the disclaimer... just kidding. -
sorry, I mean't the deployment method was manual

Set the control type to manual, and the input to 'vectored thrust' I did that on the F-14 a few years back.

Craziest stunt -- and grounded for 30 days!
DWCAce replied to a topic in Military and General Aviation
This has been discussed many times before. It was NOT a stunt, and the pilot was NOT grounded. -
Very, very sad news. Please pass on my thoughts and prayers to his family.

This ought to stir up a little talk
DWCAce replied to Jarhead1's topic in Military and General Aviation
It might of been an uncontrolled field, thus no control tower to talk to, which in turn means you better be on your game to keep things safe! -
I know what I'm doing when I get home from work!

That Facebook-ish one is priceless!

Good point... I thought I had seen pics of said loadout, but couldn't find them... I'm thinking you're right about the wing fold bit.. that's alot of weight, especially @ G.

Maybe this will also help to visualize the issue (just trying to help). Wiki states the thrust of the Pegasus 10 engine as around 19,000#'s. Whereas the Harrier GR 1 weighs: The Pegasus 105 (which versions power the GR7 series) develops 21,500#'s of thrust. And for the AV-8B's, this is straight from the NATOPS

Not to beat you down on this, but landing vertically with two drop tanks (typically EMPTY) can be very different from a vertical take-off with drop tanks (typically FULL). Like FC said, ya gotta crunch the numbers
