    I thought you needed big balls to fly one of those bolt buckets. Are you confusing the ammo with the gun?

    BMW 6 series on Ebay w/ salvage title

    Sold as is. No warranty. I would stay away from it. With the flood damage, it may appear in nice condition, and that's exactly what they try to do with salvaged titles. There could still very easily be much wrong with the internals of the engine, trany, and other portions of the internal...

    MOAB ... and we don't mean Utah

    Yes, I those two points weren't meant to seem related. I was just stating that a couple were dropped in Iraq, but not to clear LZ's.

    Senator Webb: Make dwell time equal to deployment

    Isn't the dwell to deployment ration supposed to be 2:1 right now? I know it isn't, not even close, but what exactly will another piece of paper do for us?

    MOAB ... and we don't mean Utah

    My apologies, the head. Be grateful I didn't call it the latrine :eek:, as I do go to an Army-run school. But for the time being, I'm home on summer leave, oh do I hate the civilian world.

    Just to give yall an idea of the size of these guys. The Grand Slam is in the far back.

    MOAB ... and we don't mean Utah

    The BLU-82 was used for that. They had a 3 foot nose on the thing so it would blow up above ground and not crater so badly. They even dropped a few in the first Gulf War. Edit: A4's got out the fuze extender deal before me.

    What a babbling idiot. Does he know how to speak? All of his points are rather stupid and exaggerated. Potential of an accident? Well why don't you just go live in a protective bubble for the rest of your life. That'll be fun for ya. Complaining about the fuel usage? Stop all air traffic...

    Army LTC

    LTC is an absolute joke. I go to a school with an Army ECP and many of the cadets go through it. They are called LTC-rangers by the prior service guys as the program is pathetic in comparison to the other initial courses(ie: boot, basic, OCS, etc. excluding OTS).

    I was just told by my OSO that PLC junior/seniors has NOT eliminated. I think I'll take his word over this thread's.

    How to Ship My Guns

    Just take nice drive to go get them. You could do it quickly in 4 days(if in the lower half of California), or take a nice week trip and enjoy the time. Driving them yourself is the surest way to get them to Texas.

    Blue Angels not welcome in San Francisco

    This is complete bull and sickening, but it's soon becoming the civilian population that surrounds us, and sadly, decides what we do. We should just make all of San Fran airspace a no fly zone and see how they like their safe little world then. If flying is considered a risk, then why not ban...

    All things MV-22 Osprey

    I really have no clue who the LCDR is. After going back and rereading what I wrote, and what you wrote, it was the way I interpreted the way you were commenting on the fact that there is one Navy pilot for the MV-22. I made a pointless post for a reason that I just can't recall. Must have...

    F18 Superhornet or F16CJ

    Trying/wanting to join up is very different than has joined up. The ones who've been here a while can and do recognize the difference in the actions of the people who have been there or are taking the initiative to get there and those who are just filling space by opening their mouths. And...

    The Tortured Lives of Interrogators

    Maybe you should pic up reading or listening to your elders that pass down information. This is a stupid question to ask and it's skipping the actual point of the post to take a stab at my credibility instead. The times are changing and the people have changed an incredible amount over the...

    The Tortured Lives of Interrogators

    This comment was not aimed specifically at the topic of torture, or any specific topic actually, but more at the society as a whole. Compare the civilians of today to the civilians that made this country what it is 50, 30, even 20 years ago and you will notice a huge difference in the tolerance...

    The Tortured Lives of Interrogators

    Maybe we should let him get captured by the Iraqis so he can see what real torture is and maybe he'll realize that what he did was baby shit. I hate how this civilization has been pussified to a level where everything is exaggerated far from what it really is.

    DITY and RV/Mobile Home

    They should tell you it's empty weight before you buy it, then just weigh it again to get the weight of your stuff. I don't think it would be necessary to take all your stuff out when the maker has already listed it's empty weight.

    Pondering living in an RV for Krock...

    Do you have a truck to transport the trailer with? Other than that, the trailer sounds like the best way to go with the situation you are in. Plus, the dining area and couch can hold room mates over if some other pilots can't find a place soon enough, or can't get home from the club. :)

    HQMC Restricts Non-Issued Armor Use

    Here's another link to the story from military.com. Has anyone even heard of the 7.62x63 AMP2 round? Edit: Found it. It's the 30.06, but I have never heard it referred to as that before, and wouldn't expect it to be by a US website.

    Thanks for giving more options other than paypal to donate, I might just do that soon once I get some in my account. I saw that Brett is now the highest poster, what happened to FlyNavy? I've been out for a while and remember him all the time before.

    " Senate passes war spending bill with withdrawal deadline"

    I watched this go through on C-Span this morning. A few republicans voiced their objection to the bill, but as many of you know, most of the seats were empty and the democratic senator from New Jersey just objected to everything they said, and because they are the majority, it pushed them down...

    Marine to be awarded Medal of Honor

    Same here. I wonder why the Medal of Honor continues to be awarded posthumously recently. In my mind, SgtMaj Kasal definitely deserves it for his actions.
