Another new set of Hookers inbound

Maybe because Im a helo dude, but I really expected this thread to be about something else with that title. :)
 
Yeah thats actually a MH-60S block 4. HSC-26 was the first squadron to get them. They make PMC runs in Bahrain go a lot quicker, but they are kind of tricky to execute a SAR with.

Should we give you a prize? Maybe a trophy, or a little Tiara? I think the tiara would probably make that molestache you were sporting the other night look even better...

By the way for those of you who dont know Python... once he grows his boat stache he looks EXACTLY like Borat.

Same deck I CQed on in June '06. Congrats, guys.
 
At 1:08 it looks neat that the radalt goes off, but really he forgot to reset it off the cat. Bad form. Not as bad as forgetting to put the hook down (someone did it) which is a checklist item, but still, bad form.

Everyone makes mistakes their first time out. I know I sure did.

Aaaand Debbie Downer checks in :p . . . I can neither confirm nor deny whether sometime between June 2005 and July 2006, a solo SNA attached to CTW-1 may or may not have armed his seat at the runup on the runway after getting the commensurate light. I can also neither confirm or deny that a different solo SNA may have forgotten to secure the aft cockpit for solo, called a suspend and been spun off the cat to fix it . . . One of these individuals is still in the cockpit. The other somehow still managed to graduate the RAG and successfully complete a sea tour. Anyone who's got wings on their chest has probably got at least two instances of dorking something away, not getting caught (and downed), and still learning from the experience. We've all been guilty of "bad form" at some time. Most of us just are guilty of it rarely enough and in a minor enough manner to keep our flight status.

So very true. For better or worse, those stories tend to only be shared with the close friends.

How do you think I was able to recognize that particular mistake immediately...hmmmm.
