I think I posted this a few months ago... however good to post it again, it's a cool site.

The Beretta was chosen because it was slightly less expensive. When Berettas started blowing up in SEAL's faces for using +P+ ammo, they switched to SIG. I don't think being made out of country was a problem. SIG has a factory is Exeter, NH. Not sure when it was built.

Dude, think outside the box. If they have UAVs with real-time video... just like we do... or GPS positioning...

*cough* Intel *cough*

This is very true. If it doesn't go bang every time, it's not worth much. What I meant by best (and part of it is subjective) is that no-sh!t street records the Ranger-T is one of the top performers. So are the other high quality rounds. In all reality, the top rounds have very little...

Yeah, always the problem with premium ammo. I get my Ranger-T for about $18/50 rounds... not bad compared to some of the other out there... and Ranger-T IS the best.

Yeah, needles. I never understood why ACLS was needles (the spermy) and ICLS was bullseye.

Random question I just thought of... do SH-60F and HH-60H have any sort of ACLS capability, even if just Mode 2?

When I practice them, I recite them outloud as I move my hands as if I'm actuating the switches, controls, etc. It helps a lot.

Why?

Yup, he is. That one has been around for a long time.

Be very wary of gun magazine reviews. The authors are usually being paid. Not to discount Shotgun News, you can get some great deals from them... just a comment.

Anyone here ever do a Cat IIIc?

I imagine Lightning II or Mustang II would go the way of the "Fighting Falcon" or "Thunderbolt II"... people would make up their own nickname.

You remind me of my college... WPI. A tech school like MIT (but smaller). 4 to 1 guy to girl ratio (at least when I was there). We had two classifications of girls... hot and WPI hot. There was a big difference. Not only that, but many girls at WPI suffered from RIBS... Ratio Induced B!tch...

Hate that thing... they need walls on that sh!t... it's so easy to think you've made it and find out you're still in the middle of it.

Val Kilmer's best movie.

NROTC guy here, flying Rhinos now. NROTC will not hurt anything, they get just as many pilot slots as the USNA. I personally think (and I'm biased) that NROTC is the best deal going... pay for all 4 years of college with a semi-normal college lifestyle, vice the USNA (not normal... at all). You...

I love that picture. Talk about a close-in gun kill...

I don't think the Harrier qualifies as a normal aircraft.. it hovers... now that's just not natural.

You can still control an aircraft that's in a stall... just gotta do it carefully :) A stall is not a departure. If you're falling out of the sky, 0 airspeed, and your controls are doing nothing... I'd call that "out of control". The aircraft may be ballistic heading downhill, in which you're...

Move the stick, does it do anything? You don't have control...

We all know you're keeping tabs on us, Steve.

And what happens if you get some retard who can't control himself and just wants to hurt people? For the unaware, you CAN kill people with your bare hands. Movies are not reality, many of those guys would be dead/hospitalized in the movie.

"As a matter of fact, my roommate is black. I also have black friends." Sorry, couldn't resist. Don't worry about it too much, it really does NOT matter where you go to Primary. As many guys here in Rhino-land came through VT-3 as they did -2, -6, 27, -28, and Vance.

You haven't been around long enough. This question is asked all the time.

Last year. A -57 rolled off one of their pinnacle landing pads. Already is... :(

This from a state that is so afraid of guns... go figure. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,197504,00.html

You know the drill guys... keep it sanitized. Sorry to hear about it.

It would all depend how he's slumped over the stick I guess.

Yeah... no.

Will the "home" page be returning? I'm a fan of it... not sure if anyone else is?

Nope, not obscure, but you just never know with the younger generations on here :)

If it ain't Boeing...

Im not a helo guy, but I dont think spin is the right language for it. John Patrick Ryan survived a helo crash in the Med, finished his last year at the academy from the hospital.

My guess? With the quality of seats in aircraft now, your chances of ditching are low. The NACES has never failed. *knock on wood*

Zero-tolerance = zero-think.

That's kind of the definition of OCF... though I know what you're saying. Lots of gray areas.

My understanding, and mind you it is heresay, is that the IP determined that the stud was slumped over the controls and if they ejected, the stud would have most certainly been killed. How the stud was slumped over, I don't know... kinda hard to do.

No kidding? Wow. Kinda like saying the "e-word"?

Vertigo sucks sucks sucks sucks sucks. I got some in the goo on an ILS, solo, in the T-45. Man my head was screwed up, and I didn't even have it that bad.

The guy dancing in the cockpit and the playstation controller are priceless.

Sounds like a New England state :)

You don't know what happened. Maybe he lost his engine during the manuever? Maybe it was an uncommanded pitch-up? Maybe he fvcked it away and the plane started departing. That low to the ground, you do not have much time to react. Decide when to get out and decide early... that means before you...

LOL ain't that the truth.

What Brett said. There are low-level routes all over the country. Not unusual at all, especially where you were.

There is a term for that... "Sheeple". They will believe anything someone tells them. Fear of the unknown and fear from miseducation. Ever notice the people that gun down schools typically did not receive any real firearms instruction?

You don't understand the issue fully then. They don't want people to be exposed to guns or have training. That means they are educated and that means they most likely realize that an inanimate object such as a gun can NOT hurt you unless a human is behind the trigger. Believe it or not, this...
