Why change it??..Your squadron callsign can be anything...even 'The Tomcatters"... r/ G

Good retorts. r/ G

So...I'm holding my breath now...??? WTF? r/ G

Correct me if I'm wrong...but have you tried the Waffle House downtown at 3 am? Always pure entertainment. Cheers, G

I got the biggest dual horns that would fit. Can't remember the brand name. Italian sounding I think. I can take a few shots and show you the fit. You just have to be able to run an air hose from the compressor to the horns. Also need to install a relay for the horn switch or button...you...

No, not in the squadron I was CVN staff with them and flew with them occasionally...in the F-14A.

I installed dual truck airhorns behind my bumper and above my front license plate. You really can't see them. But you can hear them and they have a clear shot straight out. Heads turn when I lay on it. The air compressor is besides the radiator. Mind you this is hidden in a 1966 Mustang...

Didn't see it answered yet...Rhino vs Hornet...number of flashes on the anti-smash differentiates between the two. C/D is flash flash...pause...flash flash...repeat E/F is flash flash flash...pause...flash flash flash..pause. Budding LSOs correct me if I erred, it's been a while since I waved...

The ACLS (Automatic Carrier Landing System) on the F/A-18C works so well on the CVN, it will hit the same spot with it's tailhook time and time again. During OEF, we told Hornet drivers to use this if they came back with an unexpended JDAM, as they were trick or treat on the ball (one look and...

KBayDog you remind me of the old joke..."can stop on a dime and pick it up..." I'm with you...catch it much later...like onTV. r/ G

Pepsi = twenty teaspoons of sugar per can...too sweet for me. Smile for the birdy CEO....

WRT fighter communities (and F/A of course)...you'll start get this in the FRS during your tactics/ACM phase. usually later in your training as ACM required a lot of flight time to get a good feel for the jet. You'll study lots of comparison diagrams of your aircraft's E-M diagrams on top of the...

Now its just I'll ride your ass till you move, simple as that. Governor Bush knows which side of his bread is buttered; isn't the average age of a Florida voter is something like 104? and they all have driver's licenses, so he's not going to alienate his core constituency r/ G May 20...

Hurricanes and Earthquakes Good job of sniffing out the BS....Mefesto and Hoorah. Earthquake Season..:) .... Tourists actually believed that in San Diego... :D Up here in near Bawlmore, Merlin, we don't get many earthquakes. Our last big hurricane, Isabel, brought a lot of wind and rain...

Ditto...

Look into college tuition assistance while in the Navy. May cover some of the costs if degree is in any way related to what you could do in the navy. May be a "gremain" attached. (an agreement to remain on active duty as a payback). r/ G

That's bad stuff, but in Southern California, July through September is earthquake season. Give me a hurricane any day. r/ G former San Diego resident for 14 years....

Little guy looks like Mikhail Kalashnikov, designer of the AK-47. Note the old school USSR war medals. Big guy....is it A4s? nah...Gene Stoner. AR-15/M-16 bubba. r/ G

Where the heck is Goodfellow AFB anyways????

For the newbs...we break to the left at the boat. This looks like the special "Prowler/Intruder Tuck Under Break"

Gotta love it. My office mate is a Brit exchange officer and I never let up on him. Good news is they all seem to have a very good sense of humor. Sort of like the US military before we got hit over the head with a PC bat. r/ G

Do you mean.....What % of Marines get Shuttles?.....

I got this same thing in my e-mail this morning...this stuff spreads too damn fast on the internet... "Hey they've got computers on the internet now"...Homer Simpson

Missiles The AIM-54A/C Phoenix...aka "The Buffalo" http://usmilitary.about.com/od/navyweapons/a/pheonixretire.htm It's time has come and gone... Cheers, G ps ...Bunky and B.....keeping it real.

"Grammar" That's true, however, you asked us to look at your info and give you our advice (mind you it's only advice and nothing more) and it is based on what we know of you...that being 1) your posted info and 2) your writing skills that we see. So we know nothing else to comment on...

I knew a Marine that had finished TBS and was in our AI class. He was a Music major in college. So no flying skills required. r/ G ps. Unfortuanetly, This Marine got attrited after he got drunk at Cacks, got into a fight and drove his jeep over a couple of Harleys in front of the saloon...

Glock 23C Not an AK-47 by any means...but pretty durable...and works for me wrt home defense. Love the frame rail mounting location. Did not have that on a Glock 19 I bought just prior to Gulf War 1.

Thank you NewsWeak...look what they've caused...making their own news I guess. From CNN (so source is in doubt to begin with...): Newsweek magazine backed away Sunday from a report that U.S. interrogators desecrated copies of the Quran while questioning prisoners at the Guantanamo Bay naval...

Only 5 bills??? Try 600 kts at the roundown...didn't think we'd make. Went down and locked in close to at the ramp. Had to come in at 30 degrees off BRC. Holy crap... it was a monkey and a football....but fun. Flyin' with "Nasty". r/ G

Quote the question or scan it for us. Be glad to help...

Plinkin' I'd only ask for help when I really needed it.... :) Actually could use some range time...Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have to meander down to the Anne Arundel Fish and Game Club this coming weekend for some plinking. We just set up a great plinking range. Lots of moving...

Shoot me now...quick.

Dude, No apology needed. It's like totally cool...shaka (kahn) r/ Punk Who's Your Daddy???

Actually.....Bwahahahaha..... It's a real three seat variant developed for overseas FMS sales to Iran....and I've got some oceanfront property in Arizona for sale, too. Two more "Salty" points gone.... Yes Virginia, NFOs were in adversary squadrons.

Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

Sometimes they do...T-6II Texan is one example. The original T-6 trainer.. The new T-6II..

Whoah....(like Bill and ted)...this is deep stuff. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...." YES

Saw an S-3 in burner on the cat once. The # 2 engine had a catastrophic failure and it looked like a mini afterburner going strong until they got supended. r/ G

LSO must be a 131X. Air Boss can be 131X or 132X. 132X can be and have been CVN CO. All billets on CVN that are URL are open to 132X types...i.e., Gator, Gun Boss, Safety, Ops, etc... Cheers, G

Maybe he was thinking about the F-22....isnt it already at IOC?...sort of.... Establishment of the initial Operational Wing would take place over a period of approximately 5 years and would involve the basing of 72 operational F-22 aircraft, along with the personnel needed to operate and...

Not so much any more as it is now becoming the F/A-18F community. When it was all ACM and dogfighting it was sometimes that way, depended on the squadron...but the mentality really changed with the addition of longer range BVR missiles, less chance of a 1v1s, TARPS, Inflight digital imagery...

I was at the JSF Flight Demonstration Center in DC two weeks ago and heard an IOC of 2013.

Actually Actually (yes, the dreaded actually)....not always true. I was in VF-43 in 1985. We had two F-14 NFOs in the squadron that flew a lot and provided ground training during FFARP on F-14 systems, etc. I also remember an NFO in VFC-13 at Miramar in the late 80's early 90's. NOT a...

Flew an F-14D from NKX into Davis Field about 30 miles SE of Tulsa, OK, for a static at an airshow. Tiny field but long enogh to land at and had the correct SE gear we needed. We get there at dusk and flew around for 15 minutes trying to find the unlit field to land at...it was getting...
