Anyone familiar with the H/CH-21C Shawnee?
sparkomatic replied to a topic in Mods/Skinning Discussion
saw this one as well... And this provides a good opportunity to ask...is there a Mojave out there? Seems like there was one... -
found an info source, so rocket-assist take-off and blown-flaps (giving a 25 mph reduction in approach speed) plus a search / track radar...sounds Gucci
-
Venture Brothers is awesome! Especially the evil scientist dude and his assistant with the baritone voice...
-
some airframes can lower their gear at higher speeds though...I had a boss who flew the -101B and they had to get the gear up shortly after rotation, but say the E-3 can lower its gear at least up to 400

"I will kill him!"

Thanks! Did we bomb it? Which time? It was surreal going for a morning jog around that place...

granted, just saying that I always thought it was smaller, more svelte...it looks huge in this shot...
-
Not saying it isnt still used for something...maybe that is where they invented AFSO21...but the new-new test site is far away, and north...scuttlebutt is that "they" (always a "they/them") leaned on GoogleEarth and the like to co-operate

I do enjoy that movie though, one of my favorites, any genre...could be Ursula Andres in a towel though...

Dawn Patrol with Flynn and Rathbone was good entertainment also By the by, the movie Blue Max was more about class struggle, the book was more about flying...
-
yeah...you get the idea just by the number of links and a perusal of the topics...

man, I just went to that AlphaSim website, first time in like two years...they had a T-34C that was really beautiful...landed a bit off specs though... and there was al Taqaddum...hey man would you post some screen shots of it? I am thinking about getting it, what do you think? also saw PNAS, good flying there...any one tried it yet?

-"and looking through the chainlink fence towards Hangar 18 still bring back good memories" exactly...screw "area 51"...all of the good stuff was hidden in Ohio (who would look there anyway?) best place to hide
-
Like making more F-15 with v3 radar and tweaked engines? The production line is still open...oh yeah! Still cheaper than the 40,000 airmen Moseley sold to buy 110 F-22...
