Go West. Six deployments out there and never at a loss for "smiles" is all I can say. . . . Pun intended.

Typical Sabre-Rattling rhetoric. You're dealing with a country that says things like that all the time. Read this to get a better feel for how these people operate: http://www.cna.org/news/releases/ConferenceReports060419.aspx

Of course... But seriously, you'd be surprised at the number of small skirmishes that occur in the NAG. Throwing a little weight around here and there is not uncommon for other nations to do in that area. As stated in the OP, this has happened before.

I knew a senior O-4 who was grounded when he had several incidents of unexplained LOC. Once he was on the back of an F-14D manning up when he greyed out and fell onto the turtleback. He was alone when that happened. He immediately spoke up about it and his flying days were done. He was a TPS...

We've already got a thread on this... See: http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showthread.php?t=135221

WOW! Nice gun Chief.

Google it.

What's wrong with orange bags????

Is the pilot in the F holding up his right hand?

LordTravi's new Delta house callsign: Gazer

He got a letter of apology and a free ticket on a future flight. When you gotta go, you gotta go.

Yeah, baby!!!

You could just work the bags and stay in shape. Just be safe about what you do.

Most SNFOs and SNAa would probably refrain from doing something that get them NPQ'd...getting knocked unconcious, even for a few seconds will get you grounded.

Ask to sit in on their flight brief. . . . . :D

Here we go again...

Spike, great gouge. Thanks for the link... Is it just me or.....:D

Stay safe.

Congrats. Get physically fit now. Be ready and do well!!

During DS/DS, I kept my Glock 19 and ammo hidden in my u-trou drawer in my stateroom until we got to the AOR. Then we brought them to the RR to fly with them. We got to fly with our own weapons until the ship's armorers saw we all had Black Talon and hollow point ammo when we were forced to...

I figured it was worth a try. I used that when coming to USNA from C5F AOR. Also did some midnight DSN calls. Good luck, the other replies seem more helpful than mine. :o

I would recommend a call to the base housing office or their web site if they have one.

I found this web site of aviation videos. Lots of unique stuff in here. http://www.aircraftguru.com/aircraft-videos/videos.php

Ahhhh yes, Papa Tomaine's...we had one of those in Braintree.

Go tell your mother. :sleep_125 We're done here.

How bad can they be???

Flew in there a lot as an out/in from VF-124 when I was a RAG instructor. Also deployed more than once out of there. People used to drop flowers on the flight deck as we went under the Golden Gate Bridge...truckers would honk their horns...cool memories just prior to DS/DS time frame. :) I...

When I read the topic: "Phrog on a stick" some twisted memories of Cubi Point and Olongapo sprang up from the dark recesses of my mind... Monkey Meat on a stick...mmmmm...

Very true...no harm in asking.

Get the earliest date you can.

Bravo!!! Best post...EVER.

Square box chained to post with two rubber hoses running across the road... Yup, terrorist threat of I've ever seen one...(ignore the city of Boston on the side of it).

Yes, really. It's how you raise your kids. Got any of your own? I'm positive that is how my son will respond. I know my son, you don't.

There is a wicket requiring written verification...but if you want access it's really not that much (or hard) to do.

I tell you nothing solves a problem like everyone in a position of leadership quitting.

You go here...register for an account (if you qualify) and all unclass NATOPS are at your fingertips. https://airworthiness.navair.navy.mil

Start them off right when they are young. So when some kid says "Hey want to see my Dad's guns?" My boy will say, "No, it's not a big deal, I shoot all the time with my Dad."

First qual I did ...way back when...was on a 6 shot 38 revolver with about a 3" barrel.

I've sent you a PM with some comments...don't take them personally.

So for an SNFO... NFO IFS + $$$ + time + skill = PPL SEL

Easy out: Brief What You Fly, Fly What You Brief. Do that and you'll always stay out of trouble. The crew above should have called it and RTB'd based on what you've said.

. . . . . . . .:) of course...

In 2000, NAS North Island would let you register your gun with base security and you could shoot it at the base range. When a RO was present. That may have changed. CCW on a federal base is just asking for a quick career. Some folks that live in on base housing at certain bases may be able...

:eek: I saw a nice knife...then I saw the $430 price tag...:eek:

Using a digital camera to do detailed before and after photographs with date/time stamps can be invaluable in getting all of your deposit back. If you go in to argue your case with a property manager and have your ducks in a row and photographic proof you left the place in same or better...

Start PT'ing now. Some is better than none.

Also don't forget the 200 knots below the overhang of a Class B/C...right? Sounds like he forgot where he was...

I can imagine the ICS comms... Pilot: Should I go faster? Lt Gov: Oh yeah, I'm the LT Gov you won't get in trouble.

Ramen noodles...cost a quarter a pack...can be cooked or eaten raw. Frozen vegetables....healthy, taste good and last for ages in the freezer.

It looks like my Para Carry 6.45 LDA.
