USN Splash one SU-22 (merged threads)

[CAMike]

Heard a funny story that the pilot who downed the SU-22 returned to a failed zone inspection notice on his door.

I love how SWO's think we really care about 3M....

The 3M's

Medicate (coffee, bug juice)
Meditate
Masterbate

I've seen this in both 1310 and 1110's staterooms. Door locks are your friends.

Only problem is, every time I see "3M", I throw up in my mouth.

Not the aforementioned Hornet, but happened today to a Thunderbird.

Doh! That VIP / Reporter is going to have a story to tell...

Kind of like the two times Turkeys were giving rides to VIPs - one the CG Skipper ejected himself and the other had a no shit emergency with another ships company guy in the back, but they had to shell out eventually as well.

Word is the backseater was a "tactical maintainer", whatever that is.

A backseater is someone that rides in the back of a jet. They tend to be very sensitive.

Just a more focused "strategic maintainer".

I wonder how much of jet is salvageable

Only when the stick monkey is flipping the jet - but then that's understandable.

Knowing the AF these days, it is probably some admin troop that they've re-named their career field to make them feel more needed.

Several years ago, no shit, the USAF medical community attempted to re-brand itself as "maintainers" of the "human weapons system". That title was so roundly mocked that it seemed to quietly slip away into the night, and they went back to being "med technicians" and the like.

Is this the first combat use of the AIM-9X?

Wow, I wish I could get away with sucking at my job as badly as whoever the idiot is who picked out the pictures for that article.

This isn't the place to ask and it sure isn't the place for a response either.

You don't expect journalist to actually do some homework and research their articles, do you ???
