T-45s over SouthTejas 8 OCT 2008
I'm in 253
I was still joining up. Blow me.
You look like a little peanut in that cockpit ... where's this "big guy" that can't fit that I always hear about ... ???
"Sunrise" ... ??? It comes fast in South Texas. When did you guys launch-y ... ???
On a runner? Nah, I like not pink-sheeting solos.
My first STUD-ACM hop was pure shit -- I learned in da' plane -- not off the 8.5X11 sheets of the syllabus -- and I never COULD get that "ACM EGG" down from a piece of paper .... as such, I almost blew the brief right out the window ... BUT:Wing down, top rudder, boards, you'll slide right in.
Technique only.

After a so-so hop .... on the fast running rdvs join-up, I used this "technique" to arrest a 5000000+ KIAS closure rate and slid right into position on the lead. Perfect.
My backseat Instructor shouted: "GOOD MOVE!!!" so loud I could hear it w/out the ICS.
It -- my non-standard, non-FTI, Fleet-style rdvs "technique" so impressed my F-8 Driver Instructor that he let me off the hook and gave me one below and one above for a 3.0 hop ...
AND then you shot your prop off shooting at the towed banner right?
I'm sure it wasn't all your fault since they were still experimenting with armor prop plating and the interrupter synchronization gear.
