LPD air dept is so small I doubt anyone cares.Flight deck personnel on CVNs don't wear khaki DCUs unless they are normally "khaki" wearers.

Or nose strut teathers..I've seen DC-10s and B-747s do that. There is a metal pole that gets stuck under the tail to prevent it.
The old C-54's (civilian DC-4) used to do that and required the pole attached to the tail on ground to prevent ending on their tails. They used to have problems taxiing as well and if you had a full load of personnel it was common to ask a number of passengers in the aft to come forward standing in the aisle until you took the runway to prevent ending up on your rear.View attachment 10575
Has anybody had this happen? I took this photo a couple years back, after we got fourteen inches of snow in one day.
Lots of Pioneer love around here today. Good stuff.

The flight attendants would never let you sit in first.....Does my tray table and scotch have to be stowed in first class during this flyby?

This was stolen from the kiowa site but I figured most around here would appreciate it.
My first thought was the video clip of the Apache doing a TERF and the pilot says "oh, yes of little faith" right before he clips some trees!
