Pigs in Space? lol

Earth to BigRed389.... The Coast Guard is a law enforcement agency.

Seems like a logical progression to me.

Doing normal checklists straight from a PCL? *shudder* :eek:

You know me too well...

I'm sure, but I really don't care to go back. Hollywood and Venice were the worst, by far. Absolutely, and I mean this, DISGUSTING.

Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Anaheim, Venice Beach, um... some other parts. Now, Santa Barbara... THAT'S a nice city.

Been to LA, spent a couple days there. Hated hated hated it. Saw my first dead body in LA, murder victim, gang killing. Good stuff.

I'd like to check out the better parts someday. Only went through in passing (straight to Key West mmm) and I wasn't impressed with what I saw, but I know that isn't necessarily representative of the city itself. Not a retard. Now, Los Angeles... that's another story...

Mo-jito. Mooooo-jito. That of course is said in the voice of Brian Griffin.

Of course it's what I meant. A lot of dangerous people were given amnesty for the sole reason that they made it to America. Bad idea. Crime skyrocketed in Miami during that time period. It wasn't anti-Cubano or anti-Miami (not a fan of the city, but I've also only driven through the crap parts)...

I believe it was Carter letting many many Cubans who reached the USA acheive citizenship. Problem was, it was a mass evolution resulting in many dangerous people becoming citizens. Not all Cuban refugees are good people.

Ghey.

And before that in the late 70's/early 80's with the Cubans. Lot of good that did to Miami.

That's more of a Law Enforcement mentality. Firefight with badguys... kill the badguys.

You're an idiot. Engage the brain and listen. Border control isn't because we don't want MEXICANS entering the country illegally, it's because we don't want uncontrolled immigration. Do YOU know how many of the illegal aliens crossing the border are criminals in Mexico? How many of them are...

Now that's some funny sh!t. :D

Treat it like any other flight. If you go into it calm and collected thinking "eh, just another day" it helps. At least it helped me when I did my NATOPS instrument check. That and use the cruise sock tonight.

:(

Isn't that VNE for the -57? ;)

Enforcing existing laws is something our country is TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE at doing. I agree, enforcing current laws would help... a lot. The problem is, our country thinks it is better to make new laws, which oh by the way are already covered by existing laws. Kinda like gun laws...

Well, did they survive?

Now try it at 400+ knots.

Damn right!

Hmm I thought it was the standard 150%. I could be wrong, been a while since I did civil stuff. I remember the Cessna 172 being like 3.52 Gs G-limit... why you're doing 3.52Gs in a C-172, I'm not sure.

Oh I agree, Border Patrol needs more. Talk about the under appreciated ******* children of law enforcement.

Amen. Nothing like doing a job the leadership doesn't actually want you to do. Show me a politician with power that actually will say "patrol and secure the borders". They won't, they'll "lose the Hispanic vote".

Others would disagree. Versatile means it would be good at many different tasks. A heavy, long battle rifle is hardly that. (Not slamming battle rifles at all, just pointing out that they are not big multi-taskers)

Sweet truck dude.

Coffee sippers... don't trust em. I have a whole whopping 2 years of Naval aviation experience and tower has tried to kill me more than a handful of times.

Yes, please do. You're a mishap waiting to happen if you do it by yourself with no instruction. And a break in a Cessna 152 will be absolutely pointless, it won't be a break, it'll be a turn to downwind. But, have at it if you want, no harm in it.

Most GA planes (Cessna, Piper, etc) are limited to the 3.? range.

SIG P226 9mm. First firearm and pistol I've owned. Love it. I have a .45, .40, .357 magnum, etc, but my P226 9mm is my go-to gun because I'm so comfy with it and I have ABSOLUTE faith in it. I'm a SIG guy.

It's high performance, not low performance :icon_smil

Who was on a tour of the simulator building today? Who's the moron giving oral sex to his fingers?

The original is in the Private forum, so... not totally a dupe.

NATOPS, every year. A tactical jet can slow down and get ready for landing real quick...

Seriously, I would not be comfortable with a saw that close to my head.

Doubtful. Can't intercept something too well when they're flying just as fast or faster than you. I would assume (I could be wrong, helo bubbas let me know) that a helo is more of a close (point) intercept tool, not anything of range.

That pilot looks pissed :) 134 million and they didn't put a manual open or emergency jettison on it?

4) People from MA think the Kennedy family, no matter how corrupt, are a Godsend upon this Earth.

Untouchable <> Unable to Die

VFA-122 has plenty of FT birds. Were they on det or something? That seems highly unusual.

You're talking about my squadron Middie :icon_tong Walk? You sure as sh!t aren't walking to the flight line from the Q...

Dude, forget that, come to the dark side of the Rhinos ;)

What squadron?

When two men get together that previously were trying so hard to kill each other and can now talk as friends, I think that shows a lot about human decency.

HA! Totally forgot your were a Tomcat driver... WOOPS! I guess I'm the boy... :o I'll go scurry to the corner with my duncecap now...

Don't believe the Marines. It's a pistol, firearm, etc until employed as a weapon. They're brainwashed into calling everything a weapon. Good deal, very popular pistol. Never shot one, but there are LOTS of lovers of them on this site.

Except you dont start in C-12s, and even if you did, youve already done formation, low levels, aerobatics, etc. More than most straight-civilian pilots can claim, especially the formation side of things. Bragging to a non-pilot about flying a Learjet... good to go. Bragging to a military pilot...
