    Pilot's gun discharges in flight

    It all comes down to training. I shoot IDPA on weekends. I can tell you my handgun skills have gone up a lot. Whatever you do..IDPA, IPSC, GSSF, etc., just do it and you can only get better. Glock Perfection: And my favorites: my G19 and G23 combo...same size, different flavors (9mm or...

    Is it true that the Marines have a quota to reach for female officers?

    Six months of "Sear school"... Count me in... So it would bother you if you knew you got accepted into the service you applied for because you were female? Easy solution...don't ask the question.

    LOW Altitude OCF Video

    In the F-14, multiple aileron rolls were a prohibited manuever. One aileron roll and a pause, then another and a pause, etc., were okay ... If you do multiple the nose can just start to go on you. What happened to that Hornet could happen in an F-14 even under normal g loading. Nasty...

    Arab Drivers pileup 200 cars in UAE, 8 dead

    While I was in Bahrain, the King's son, the Prince and all of 15 yeards old, killled himself driving his crown vic at some ridiculous speed approaching 140 mph on local highways. He did not have a driver's license and was with a bodyguard who was supposed to be driving. The press reported...

    Arab Drivers pileup 200 cars in UAE, 8 dead

    After living in the Arab culture for a year, accidents like that don't surprise me at all. They all drive amazingly recklessly and with an "I'm above the law" attitude.

    T-34 Disappeared and Reappeared

    I was a senior FRS instructor qualified in all phases at 101. I used to go fly with a friend who was a T-34C spotter pilot and F-14 pilot. Since I was/am SEL Instrument rated, he'd let me fly the whole hop, including a practice instrument approach or two as needed. Good times...

    T-34 Disappeared and Reappeared

    I've taken a T-34C out of Miramar and just gone VFR to the east and done T&Gs at Big Bear Airport when I was in VF-101. So I guess it could be done. Who initiated the search you went on? FAA or USN? Was he overdue for his arrival time would be questions I'd ask?

    Blue Angels, F4J Phantoms

    I lived under the flight path for South Weymouth NAS. It was an A-4 and P-3 base at the time. My best memories as a kid in the early 70's were the Blues flying F-4 Phantoms over my house during the show. I remember saying I want to do that...never got into Phantoms, but F-14s sufficed.

    .600 Nitro Express - not for the faint of heart

    So he wrapped his support hand around the cylinder on a revolver to shoot it??? That's asking for trouble there if it's not a single shot .600.

    Where are you getting your ammo? (.223/5.56)

    Prices for the stuff being used in Iraq have gone up...I'll give you one guess where all the .223 / 5.56 is going? Others calibers have shown smaller increases in price due to rising lead costs amongst other economic reasons.

    a question about nerves.

    So you're afraid to fly...afraid to drive in a friends car...afraid to walk down the street (I added that one :D)...that's no way to go through life. Seek professional help now. But to steer clear of aviation ...heck no...You should aim to be an NFO in F/A-18Fs.

    Not always the case. On my 2000 cruise on the the John C Stennis, our C-2s carrier qualified day and night. They didn't carry pax at night, but did accept post sunset cat shots and some night traps to stay current all through deployment. Got us a lot more cargo transfered after daylight...
