Maj. Troy Gilbert
I'm sure Dave Griffin will make some kind of comment about how you forgot 2 zeros there...since the USAF is more "safety minded" than "combat minded" and there's no way that we'd EVER do CAS below 7500'. :) -

Actual Combat
I'm not arguing that point. Maybe when ya'll are saying "fighters" you really mean to be saying "F-15Cs." When I say "fighters," what I really mean in this context is "A-10s, F-16s, F-15Es, and Hornets." ...but I'll step outta this so you fellas can play oookie cookie by yourselves... -

T-38 down in TX?
Yes, I'm aware of this. I just didn't think it was happening already. -

T-38 down in TX?
Yeah, like it being a solo IP, for example. I was unaware that IFF guys are flying at RND nowadays...I thought IFF was only conducted at Moody and Sheppard. -

Best weekend x-c's
Oh yeah...I'll echo the Ellington words...best FBO *ANYWHERE*. Call them before you T/O, and they'll order you pizza for free. Grab the pizza, then head to the "Briefing Room" (read: home theater) to chill with a movie (do they still have the playboy channel?). If you get stuck there... -

Best weekend x-c's
^Yeah, NAS North Island was a lot of fun. In the Gas Lamp district, I like the Yardhouse. Biggest bar I've ever seen...all stocked with beer taps. Order a "yard" and they'll bring you a 3 foot tall glass of beer filled with the brew of your choice. I played "stump the bartender" and he had... -

Best weekend x-c's
Austin. The Driskill hotel (a historic landmark) has a military rate (90 bucks a night, last I checked), and it's located a VERY short stumble from 6th Street. NAS New Orleans is fun if it's the right time of the year. I was there just this past weekend...I'm surprised I still have brain... -

KCBM T-38C went down 18 Jan 07
What about making it a linked/sequenced system like modern 2-seaters (F-15E/T-6)? That's always the weirdest crew coordination item to brief: "Ok, stanley...since you're in the back seat today, you'll be going first..." -

Dogs for a single guy at UPT
I know this: Daschunds with erections can't climb stairs. ...but is it true for basset hounds? haha :) In all seriousness...if you're a single guy in a dorm or apartment, UPT will pretty much be a year of hell for your dog. Unless he's a little rat-dog, he'll need to stretch his legs... -

KCBM T-38C went down 18 Jan 07
Any word on the seat? Is it an ACES-quality device, or will the T-38 ejection envelope pretty much remain the same? I assume that ENJJPT gets it last...standard. :) -

Kinda cool. Pay extra for that option? -

KCBM T-38C went down 18 Jan 07
Hm... Well, "shooting the canyon" sounds a LOT more hetero than "I want some butts" if ya know what I'm sayin... Good scenes in the movie peppered with some homo scenes. I still own a copy, so don't worry. I just hit "SKIP" over the "I want some butts" stuff. :) -

KCBM T-38C went down 18 Jan 07
Meh...the T-38's seat isn't exactly ACESII technology...if I can land that thing, I'm stayin right where I am! We're talkin' the best 1960s seat money can buy...good, but some 18 year old dude fresh out of tech school is still packin' your chute (sts!!). :) -

The AirBoss saying "I WANT SOME BUTTS!!!" just about put the homosexual nail in the coffin for that scene. Ugh. haha :) -
