"cool MPD test screen" - is that the ginormous 1980's glass CRT? .... Or whats under the ADI..?
 
Yes, the TV screen. That bird was at end of life, and the Mission Systems wouldn't load, so we jokingly decided to turn the test screen on so it looked like something was working. Looking at the instruments, it looks like it had the NVG mod, which means this was a HUD bird, so I'm a little surprised the SACs weren't fixed to come up. I think at that point, neither Mx or Ops cared.

I'd have to check my logbook, but this might have been my last flight in a Bravo.
 
Here's the uncle (Philippine Air Force- rotary) after beating the shit outta Chuck Norris. :cool: Always brags about this one.

Apparently he flew during production of some movie called Missing in Action. Can't say I've seen it (damn Millennials, right?).
 
This video is just so much awesomeness - Phantoms and Buccaneers recovering on the old HMS Ark Royal - back when our British friends actually had a Navy -

 
“extremely aggressive” and so low that wakes were kicked up in the water below the jets, Navy officials said.
 
The incidents yesterday were exceptional - yes. What's more troubling is how off guard the USS Donald Cook was found to be.
