Godspeed aviators, tough loss and prayers for those they left behind.
I assume it is a current practice area for Aerobatics / Spins etc. but I did primary in Texas MANY moons ago and our areas...
Run a PVS-14 (good but FOM not as good as Sensei's FOM) here for hog hunting and for a budget IR laser, Lasermax UNI-IR has held up surprisingly well. Holds zero and good enough output for at least...
CONCUR!
Both Aircraft Commanders CW5s who thought this was one of their toughest missions.
Using embers on ground and trees to get reference when normally NVGs would be sucking in smoke!

Flew Bravos back in the day with CAPT Crozier so I will refrain from commentary on who is right in the cluster, other than to say he is a good man.
What I will happily point out for the benefit of...
Quoted for truth.
Familiar with that area and ceiling apparently was 1300 and dropping with fog. LEO rotary wing was not flying based on weather. As a trained Safety investigation dude I was...
Look at Dry Creek Outfitters Wichita Falls TX. Have hunted with them through some mutual LEO friends in the area (not as paying client) and they know their game! Don't know about the quality of...
Even as a 911 guy rooting for the RSR's and GT3's at this year's Daytona 24, it was great to see the Ford GTs slugging it out with them in the rain soaked chaos!
Movie looks like a must see!
Good catch, Start was Microsoft FSX not DCS. BUT DCS forum had screen shots and 3D model of Seahawk with 3rd party developer working on one so I can HOPE.
TGS I OFFICIALLY don't like you!!!!
MUST RESIST URGE to DOWNLOAD...."Turkeys" vs massed BACKFIRE raid was #@$%#$@%@#$% epic right down to the Vampire call.
So of course I had to google , start...
Well done from the owner of a 70 built to 73 RS Specs! Sadly I can only afford one P CAR, and though I would love a daily driver, I will stand pat with the one below. That said it is sitting in the...
Perhaps that is the point, though I doubt the movie guys were that sophisticated.
As the Navy Hawk guy, for the record those are not Blackhawks but MH-60S Knighthawks and in the ramp scene...
Ok then how about an older AGM-114B, have to shoot those up now that the Kilo variant is out. Kinda like shooting up your old duty ammo once a year.
Naval Aviator, History guy, Weapons Tactics Instructor Pilot holy grail moment! That Wildcat, Tail # F-5 with Felix and the 4 kill flags is of the legendary VF-3. VF-3 was lead by then LCDR (Later 4...
As above, 100% here and know many WAY more serious SIG customers (or former customers) than me who have complete faith in them as well.
Prayers out for those suffering this loss. BBI thanks to your team from ours for being out on the line.
Paint is original code 73 Chrome Spec Yellow.
With the 2.7 builds an "Early S" Cam = a very aggressive street cam. Mine has a WEBCAM variation on this theme that only behaves on the street with...
Ran a similar but slightly more developed RS Repro for years. She still sits in my garage waiting for more time on my part. Depending on Cam that 2.7 with Webers will be snotty on the street. You...
Roger Lief. Factory had it at 2750 in a 18" and honestly I initially did not compensate for 85DEG temps and a little altitude. As an amateur long distance guy at best it was my fault on the initial...
Concur with all the above praise. IMI 77gr shoots consistently at 1 MOA out of my LaRue 16" Stealth (1/8 twist). Just had it out to play at 600 KD. Initial Calcs had it at 5.0something MILS drop...
My current Boss along with a few of the guys I was at NSAWC with are grads of that course, all said it was one of the best courses they had been in, jealous.
