Is that duct tape holding the nose on?

Darn budget cut backs..... :laugh:

well in this economy, can you blame them?

Well let's hope they don't cut to far back.... I want to keep receiving my paychecks. :laugh:

Oct 1st is coming up... election year... who knows..:iono:

Don't remind me..... :facepalm:

Say... does anyone know where we are? I was so caught up in the conversation I didn't pay attention to the signs.

I think we should have made a left at Cucamonga.....

here's hoping...

and them're some crazy B-1 shenannigans, but...

one of the guys here proved it can fly with one wing forward & one wing back :confused0068:

That is pretty impressive... :D

:laugh:
:sm0:

Oh, man am I late to the party....lol

guess that's what i get for having to WORK!:mad0260:

Working the night shift, you probably have some strange experiences in your line of work... do a lot of your stories start with, "You ain't gonna believe this $#!t!" :laugh:

:scared0016:

One of San Antonio's finest helped me out one night. I was stuck on "Frontage Road" and couldn't find my street. Hmmmmm, Frontage Road. Largest road in San Anton.

Doug will know what I'm talking about.

Don't mind me.

OMG that stupid system is so jacked up... LMAO

I was on the ring (1408 or something) and my cousin said, "Get off on the Frontage Rd." Well hell, there's only a Frontage road every couple of miles!

It was a long trip. I thing the Houston to San Antonio leg was quicker than me driving in town!

It's cake now.

1604... the loop...

What's funny is when I am forced to drive into OK... I wonder and marvel at the lack of access roads... There are none... Exit the highway at 70 and turn into X store... or take an exit and drive about 11 teen miles back into no mans land for gas...

That shouldn't be a problem in the future, next time you're in Oklahoma and get lost, give me a call. I can help.....







We'll have you in :canada: in no time. :D

:laugh: for some reason I don't think he's kidding at all....

Once you get the hang of them it's great. I think of it as "pit road"

I left ~ARR! a note in speedsters thread :D

have a feeling I may regret this :sm0:

In my sig, the preregistration form link in in there. Helps to have this done, if any of you are doing the Autocross!! Hoping you guys can help me spread the word!

Would this be a Spam post?

i found out the story on this pic today...
some guys checking the fuel transfer system on the ground & got a little too much moved to the rear :bolt:

yeah, i hate this system here in abilene. i missed my 1/2mi prior exit too many times, so i just stay on the access roads. :rolleyes:

WoW... I can just see him going around in circles... :laugh:

Yup... as I mentioned earlier, it's happened more than once... Not sure if that pic is Dyess, but it did happen there once.

i'm pretty sure that one's ellsworth, but yeah, it's happened more than once :yikes:

Awwwww you Silly Fixed wingers :wub:

To Fly is Heavenly....

BUT

To HOVER is Divine :headbang:

That's why we have these now...:D

OOOOHH yeah.... those are cute... but when was the last time one of thoooose did a one wheeled landing on an edge of a cliff to save someones life..... ;)

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e2...ForcesUH60.jpg

It already flew through, cleared out the enemy so the life could be saved... Team work..:drinking:

:facepalm: Rotorheads...

It was an attempt to do a full landing but the earth was repelling the vibrations...
Chris and I have been over this before... Ten thousand loose parts flying in close formation is not an aircraft...
















































Actually, Having worked on helicopters as a medic and flying on them to work all the time, I'm simply amazed what they can do in the hands of a competent and skilled pilot...

:headbang: :respekt:

:laugh: Helicopters: Defying the laws of physics before it was cool. :cool:

This is a very critical point... :character0182: <--- Pilot :yikes:<--- Crewman/me/chris

Fixed for you... I took the controls of a Bocal <<, not sure of the spelling... for close to an hour one time... level straight flight at the time. i was the last one left on a crew change and they couldnt carry everyone on the big bird, so they sent this thing out... For all I know it was on autopilot, and I was just mimicking the AP... :iono:

saw a couple sitting at Eglin when i was checking out the AF variants a couple months ago. at least ours are already flying...

wait... didn't you spend your career jumping out of perfectly good aircraft?



or were you the one who had to push scaredy-cat Chris out? :laugh:

it still had to be fun though, right?

Fixed or Rotary - as long as they are ours (USA) they are cool. :thumbup:

True... JSF was the last project I was working on when I retired from the AF. If 911 hadn't thrown a monkey wrench into things I'd probably still be working on it.

:thumbdown:

Planes are like dragsters and rotaries are like AC cars. Built for different things. But I agree with Rob, a good pilot makes a world of a difference

^^ i never realized i'm 3 for 3 of your racing quotes :( :thumbdown:
all in 1 turn at road atlanta. i should at least get some redemption points for killing 3 birds with 1 stone
