In my best ""Great Karnak" voice "I did not know that" interesting.

All CAG's these day's are Captains (since the mid-eighties IIRC) A blackshoe may call an Aviator an Airdale, I would never, nor have I ever heard, an Aviator call another Aviator an Airdale.

I suspect you have this one since it was sold at the mess and came with the primary grad and I know it's VT-10 centric but we shared the T-47's. The original is 8x10. I do have some small TA-4 one's I'd have to scan but not sure how suitable they would be for larger.

That was my thought. Try that a few years back with Saddam and you would be hanging from your thumbs with your balls in your mouth. Welcome to freedom. You're welcome.

The national mall is not DC IMO. The crap that surrounds it is. The museums are great and DC certainly has some good restaurants and bars but those can be found in lots of other places and better ones too. My wife lived in DC when we dated for two years and I must have seen all of it at one...

Hell, they like the crackhead Berry so much they continue to elect him as a city councilman. Aside from the Metro system, DC is damn near a wasteland of anything good and I've spent more than enough time there and close to there to know what I'm talking about.

OK, talking out of my ass here but at what did the Marines become flexible on u-n-i-f-o-r-m? ;)

Suppose you had to do something with your sketch pad as the 500 lb'ers kept landing in your town and Mustangs and Thunderbolts kept disassembling whatcha got :D

F/A-18D question I tried to post this earlier and it apparently didn't take. Didn't want to hijack the mishap thread with my query. How often is a Delta flown single pilot? Can the front seat handle all the weapon systems? Do you need both crew for a PMCF?

F/A-18D question Didn't want to piggyback the mishap thread. How often does a Delta fly without a WSO? Can all the weapons work be done in the front?

It's the nature of using firewalls incorrectly. We have one here that has over 4000 rule sets. Why they think they can manage that I don't know.

Good to know. I was contemplating a buy from cheaperthandirt so will hold off a bit.

Pot meet kettle :D Was down in Chantilly at your place Thursday and turns out you're not at the mothership or I would have stopped by.

Yep, he was our CAG paddles in CVW-8 circa 90/91.

If NMCI is using the Federal Desktop Core Configuration (FDCC) and an DISA/NSA approved configuration of Active Directory then by Group Policy for Windows XP and Vista the USB's should be software disabled by Domain and Client Group Policies. If they are not it's only a matter of time until OMB...

Malcious code on removable media is a real concern and in this day and age of netwar it may not be "just" a virus so Antivirus software is not the whole solution. They do need to figure out some sort of workaround to enable work to get done. Shared on-line resources available from internal...

VP-24- Best VP patch ever.

Apparently this FA has a commercial ticket so would hope they were more use than just reading checklist. Doubt the Capt let them land though!

That would be the Patapsco and there is a fair amount of bow hunting it anyways. Have to get west of 15 or out on the eastern shore for a centerfire to be legal for deer.

You mean I have to limit myself to one type of gun? ;) My M-4 is fun. I enjoy the light recoil and shooting with a peep site again. Ammunition is relatively cheap and I'm saving the brass and eventually will reload for it. I also shoot hi-power silhouette with a bolt action .308, hunt with...

If you're hunting in IA isn't that a slug or muzzleloader only state? The .223/5.56 round is perfectly legal in many states (where centerfires are allowed) for deer and it is adequate for most shots however you need to ensure that you use a big game bullet and not a varmint bullet when...

Suspect it won't be the last time (I hope!) Milhouse :)

Worked in my favor though. Just bought a new 08 Toyota 4Runner Limited V8. over 14K under sticker price.

VAQ-33 and 34 both flew EA-7L's and one of my female classmates flew them with 33 down in Key Weird. VAQ-33 also flew Whales and EA-6A's at the time in the electronic adversary role. 34 flew Whales and EA-7's out of Magu. For the most part the sole loadout of the EA-7's carried AST-6 radar...

Will do. Deciding what I want to have converted and going through them is a winter project of mine.

Gentleman, I give you FIAT of America :D

Might is the wrong word if the JOPA has a hair on it's collective ass :D

Yep, was there. Someplace in my slides is a picture of the whale. Need to get those all to digital at some point.

Especially the Sea Vixen where the pilot got an ejection seat then the nav had to crawl through the hole left in his canopy and parachute! :eek:

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1810038822/video/10360603 Put here because of the M-1 vs punk scene :D

Hey, they have a Sonic drive in now! :D Was out there last April shooting hi-power silhouette with some buds. Pretty country but you have to bring your own fun.

Welcome aboard Chris. Thanks for the info and the work you and your Dad do!

Flash, Invoking the "I know it when I see it" wrt firearms is as insane as it is with porn. Just because you or "them" think it might be dangerous is no reason to restrict their ownership. My experience is that people that go to the expense/trouble to own stuff like this don't use them for...

Guessing a S&W model 39. That was their first DA Semi wasn't it?

It would be helpful if you quoted what you were responding to (you P**sy ;) )

Sweet series 70. I have a series 80 Colt Combat Elite that I love.

Your arguments are hollow and you know it. If they get both the presidency and the legislature and insert their favorite picks into the Supreme court you will see just how quickly all sort of "reasonable" controls they will put forth. Mark my words.

The same people that think a semi-automatic M-4 is an "assault rifle" Oh, a name? How about Rep James Moran (D) of VA? http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h109-654 when you're categorizing a weapon as evil simply because the diameter of the bullet you're showing a remarkable...

Well, I only eat vegetarians. Does that count? :D

How about when they decide to ban those hi-powered sniper rifles? Those in fact, are his business. Cooper builds high quality single shot rifles for the most part. They only introduced a center-fire repeater this year. How about when they introduce more taxes on ammunition and components...

Yes. I have lots of other options for a high end rifles. It's my money and I'll spend it as I want. Just like I won't buy another Dixie Chicks song (OK, I'll have to admit I never did in the first place but still). He believes in what Obama is selling and Obama has a documented track record...

All, I was shocked and appalled to find Dan Cooper of Cooper firearms endorsing Obama. I have two of his rifles, a M22 Phoenix in .308 and a new Classic in .22LR. Haven't even scoped the .22 yet. Those will be my last...

They'll certainly go for both. I'd get the lower for an AR (the part with the serial) then buy a used high cap semi-auto pistol and with whatever is left over buy AR parts like high cap a magazines.

Well, I'll let a RIO argue that point but to me "locking on" means the sync of the targeting system and weapon system.

That's the point he was subtly making. Rockets are unguided, missiles are guided. The F-89, F-86D and 102 all had arrays of rockets to shoot into the horde of invading Bisons, Bears and Backfires (Oh my)
