    Air Races

    Most I've pulled was 8.7 sustained in an F-15B. It really hurt. You could spike to 13g for a moment or two if you were at max g going through trans-sonic pitch at a high mach turn, but most likely not sustain it. F-16 drivers can turn sustained at 9g max and train to that in the centrifuge.

    Little plane that could..coming soon.

    small, fast, would quickly kill a first time plane buyer. I doubt they'll become typical GA transports...too expensive to maintain a jet engine. Service ceiling?

    Uh-Oh

    Bull. We currently have quotas in our promotion process....it's a bad thing. You should be promoted on merit alone, not race, creed, color or sex. But big navy so wants to be able to say that today's navy reflects society as a whole...so here we are...in all our glorious percentages.

    I carried 4 green water bottles. The kind we get issued. One in each g-suit pocket and two in my SV-2 vest. I would do as HJ said and fully hydrate before each flight as well. It could get extremely hot and humid on the roof when you manned up or even after you landed if you were parked in a...

    dealing with a reluctant spouse...

    I too, see the 37/21 thing as a big concern...I would recommend "taking care of that" first and then following your dream...or it will drag you down. Also need to rename this post to "Dealing with a reluctant boyfriend."

    E-6 Community Lifestyle

    What i've been told:...... Seriously, I heard it is great. You do go on detachments for a few months at a time. But never land on the carrier (of course) or go to sea. A LT can be a mission commander and perform one of the most important ABCCC missions we have. When an E-6 breaks, the...

    Fun While Stashed

    My stash job....doing the swimming demos for every API class at DWEST. I was a very good swimmer and volunteered. Really got me in great shape. Great hours. Work in swim trunks. When I went through as a student, it was a breeze.

    Why no VOR on the boat?

    Remember VOR stations are fixed and do not move. TACANS on ships roll and heave with the ship they're on (to include small boys). LFM smooths out that so you don't see it in the cockpit. Don't know if you could do that with a VOR. r/ G

    Just like the NACES seat in an F-14D... 90 degree and uncomfortable. Try that for 7+ hours over Iraq.

    The Great Cats and Dogs on Aircraft Carriers Thread . . . with F-16 insanity!

    Actually not, remember it has a huge straight high aspect ratio wing like a glider. Saw one do a takeoff and fly by at NAS Miramar airshow. I thought it was going to stall on climb out it was so slow and climbing so steeply.

    Spouse's Job

    Try www.spawar.navy.mil the HR section has lots of info. Mind you these aren't regular civilian jobs, they're GS and usually require a clearance. I worked there for PMW-159 for a few years.

    Piper cub would be cake...just put 40knots of WOD and rotate in place....fly away. In 1995 we loaded a big bunch of WWII war birds on the Chucky V and headed for Hawaii to celebrate the 50th Anniv of VJ Day. We deck launched them all with no problem off Diamond Head. I'll see if I can...
