"Those guys are dangerous."

Iceman the later years
 
Listen, I'm all about chillin' out and push it up at the end of the week as much as the next guy, but it looks like these morons fell off the short bus a while ago. Again, one can loosen up, joke around , get drunk, do what you do for fun whatever, and have a good time, but that doesn't necessitate being a f0ckin' retard. (plus the formation flying is questionable decision-making in my opinion, albeit we do not know who did the flying... and if it was done by these a$$hats, whether they had a solid acro/manuever-specific background)

Either way I hope that video resurfaces if these tools make it to UPT. I would gladly give them the benefit of the doubt and suggest that the video is not representative of their actual maturity level and general personal behavior, but perception is reality, so they brought it upon themselves....
 
I went to Riddle, flew Prowlers, Hornets, Goshawks and now am and old airline fcuk. I think the video was made for fun. Just a couple of guys having fun. THAT's ALL!!! You actually don't think these guys really were serious? I knew all sorts of these AF guys and although some may be geeky, they loved aviation. What's wrong with that?
 
Here are two quotes from a forum member on another site (www.aviationforum.org). I posted the link to the video there and here's what one ERAU student had to say...


"I KNOW ALL OF THOSE GUYS! I'm in ROTC at riddle. They got in a SH!+ load of trouble for using the ATC lab after hours, and from the FBO for flying such tight formations. Riddle tried to ground the few that were flight students, but they had nothing on them. It wasn't illegal and it wasn't riddle aircraft. We loved it!"

then...

"and almost, if not all of them have AF pilot slots, a few are goin to ENJPT."
 
I couldn't even make it through 2 minutes it was that gay. Oh my god.

Some day, you'll be in that bubble of air left over in the roof of your car after you drove it through a guard rail on a bridge and landed on the river bottom and you'll be thinking of all the minutes and hours spent reading posts on this forum and...

Never mind! :beer:
 
There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots.

Not really. I know a retired deputy chief of police that went through a guard rail on a bridge and nobody figured it was him until days later. There was a break in the guard rail, he was missing, there was a hole in the ice! Nobody put three and three together.

If you're 25, you think you'll live forever and you'll think all the old people speak words of doo doo. Then one of your friends will rub airliner against airliner and then you'll say, "yadda yadda yadda!"
 
Ugh..that was ugly. But, they are young and having fun.
Heck, about 10 years ago I was in a flight of four Pitts doing a photo flight. I was slot, left wing was a bro of mine who went on to fly F-15's, right wing was another bro who went on to fly F-18's for the Marine Corps. Anyways, we got this T-6 to be a photo ship. So there we were, trying to get the formation perfect for the pics, the tension was high when out of the blue the right wing goes "Any of you boys seen an aircraft carrier around here?"

Flying back to the airport, lead spotted a C-152 and cries out it a panic voice "One Fifty-two's never been this close before!!!"
 
i was sitting here watching it with our chief pilot. he not only knows the kids, but i guess one of our old aircraft was used in the video. they got in some pretty hot water for that gay video. i hate embry riddle
 
well, in response to an earlier post, no they weren't riddle planes, but they were riddle students, and they were using the ATC lab. N8015D or what ever the tail number is used to be owned by Sunrise out of OMN. That airport looked more like EVB. Im sure they were just having fun, I can understand all of that, but That video took way to much time and effort not to be flamed. Im still embarased to have a diploma from riddle.
 
These dousche bags are the reason Riddle has a bad name. Daddy's little girls with too much time and money. WTF were they thinking? Horribly Gay!!!

Didn't look like EVB to me..

They were having some fun...but the formation flying was pretty stupid (ok it was all stupid). Its beyond me why people feel the need to document themselves doing questionable/stupid stuff.

If they have the flight suits, they were awarded a flight slot in the AF.

Chad, don't bite the hand that feeds. :laugh:
 
Looked like OMN, if I remember correctly. It was a long time ago...

Anyhow, I think they were just trying to make a spoof video. I am more concerned about the stupid flying... Not a whole lot of experience there. Pay attention to what the heck you are doing.

Oh, and for riddle guys who are tempted to imitate these kids, remember there are plenty of alum out there who wince every time you make us look like a bunch of f*ckheads. Don't do it.

It must be OMN..its funny, in ~180 hours of flying in the DAB area, I have not once been to OMN.

What are they calling Ormond Beach these days... I thought it was OMN. Granted it's been about 8 years.

180 hours of flying in the DAB area? Neato. I did 2500.
