    Two Kingsville T-45A's will be starring on the CBS weekly drama "NCIS" this Tuesday night at 8/7c. For those of you in K-Vegas and Meridian, that means 1900. :icon_wink

    So tune in!

    Sounds like a weak episode. Are the solving the case of who picked up their friend and went joyriding on their air nav solo?

    Yeah, it will involve an SNA getting taken to the cleaners on a divorce and subsequently killing his ex-wife.

    NCIS agents run the gamut from truly outstanding to former Sheriff's Deputy Cletus who saw his chance for a federal pension. While the show is obviously highly fictionalized (apparently there's a new version in Los Angeles, not the biggest Navy/MC town), the actual NCIS does do some pretty important stuff.

    NCIS used to have a LA field office up until the late 90s/early 2000s... I'm sure its LA setting makes production of the spinoff cheaper...

    Yea, the NCIS crew comes to investigate an assault and battery at the Country Luau. Oh wait I'm sorry, that actually happened in real life right before my eyes two nights ago not on TV

    Stupid question that goes well here I think: Did they screw up the "Prince's" nametag? It had baloonist's wings ( I think, it was kinda grainy )
    Related stupid question: Do stud's nametags have wings on them at all?

    No. Unless earned something with wings on it before flight school.

    Thats what I thought - here's what he was wearing

    Looking at it again makes me think it was a post production photoshop - looks like there's a blob over the other wing and the text is unbalanced[IMG]

    Some international studs have already earned their nation's wings prior to coming to flight school here in the States. For example, the Indian students in Kingsville already have wings from India.

    And if you look closely, they misspelled "Station" on the sign over the hangar. In the episode, the sign spells it "Stattion".

    The character in the show was stationed in Pax River and was scheduled to complete all of flight school in 3 months. Apparently the producers are not familiar with a little thing called Google.

    No they do not. My last job was with NETSAFA and I worked closely with the Indian Navy liason. The Indians don't have their wings when they arrive but do have approximately 70 hours of in house flight training before they arrive. By wings, I mean their wings of gold.
