Stupid questions asked at airshows

[Scrapdog]

Now you've pissed me off loser! I would never want that moron around me in a fight. You can have him. Former Navy chopper balast. I hope he screws up with you on the boom so I can say I told you so. Shut up and go fly your Dorito jet. Take another blue go pill and pi$$ off. Go to Oceana, look for yourself before you talk about crap you no nothing about. Typical fighter mentality think your better than everyone else. Like I said: your avatar says it all. How many forms 8s does I guy have to bust before you say enough? idiot

Wow, this guy has no clue - now it's down to personal attacks on me flying fighters and hoping I whacked on the boom. Sad...

Got asked if the engines on the tanker were bombs by a kid at least 16.

Also got asked if the boom was really a cannon...

Yep, but don't tell anyone, it's a secret.


Anyone going to NAS Oceana next weekend. Go laugh at the tanker clown in a mumu for a flight suit. I think he got a 9 on the PFT. I'm disgusted that he's in my squadron.

Stand him next to the Hurricane Hunters and he'll look like Lance Armstrong..ha haaa. (Drum crash).
That was for you Basset Hound

No problem, just make it clear that it's not about me. Trust me, I work harder than most other people in the wing at staying in shape. If you doubt it, please come swing some kettlebells with me.

Oh its NOT about you. And most of the doughnut herders are or have retired I think

I never heard scrap say a single thing about being a fighter guy, and better than you. Based just on the maturity of your post I'd say most here are better than you regardless of what they fly. Scrap's post was more about professionalism... something you apparently lack. I agree, I don't care how much you don't like a squadron mate, you don't do ******************** like that.

Maybe not in your unit but in the in my unit "we hate each other but, we hate you more." (and no I didn't make that up, just repeating the joke) Sounds like the other heavy drivers know what I'm talking about when it comes to the Krispy Kreme Kroud. The fat kids are in charge at my unit and most of them failed to promote on AD and ended up in the ARC. If you all have been lucky enough to have good leadership then good for you. I talked to several buddies in my unit after a few of my posts with Scrap and they agreed with me. We are all tired of selfserving donothing leaders scared to make a decision. The nomex mumu wearing Lt Col is an absolute joke and we figured the PFT got restarted after the CSAF ran into a few reserve airlift/tanker guys like him and was grossed out. I mean, specially made flight suits? Come on! Have you ever seen a size 54L? Go to the show and then we'll talk. It's a lack of quality leadership that allows people like that to continue d^mn near unchecked. No one wants to do the dirty work anymore. So if I crap on one of my own its because we hard working, dedicated officers and pilots have had it! Far be it for outsiders to judge not knowing anything about it. Think about it: 54 Long! Imagine that climbing into your precious viper/hornet. Finally lets talk about weak pilots. How many of you kept in touch with any of the dudes that washed out of your UPT class. All of us know guys that did but how many washouts from YOUR class did you keep in touch with. I did until he PCS'd and I lost track. There is only so much people are willing to do. So get off my back about pointing out sub standard skills, fitness, and appearance.

Sorry about bein' a bit touchy. Just that just about nobody on the board has laid eyes on me so I just wanted to make sure nobody thinks I'm akin to Mr. 54L that was mentioned earlier.

Yes, sqdn tonnage has declined drastically. I'm sure the PSI ( Pounds per Squadron's Individuals ) has decreased considerably!!

Jeez, doesn't every airlift/tanker puke get in shape at Altus?

Maybe the AF should do away with local upgrades and send everyone to the big-time schoolhouse at Altus.

That base has seen more weight lost than any other base on the planet!


And isn't this thread supposed to be about questions asked at airshows?

How high can this thing fly?

How many planes have you shot down?

I hate to be this guy, but here goes. How many people have ever had to do a pullup in a cockpit or on a flight deck? I remember a squadron CC I had in Kadena who was always making fun of me for having sore knees, sore shoulders, sore elbows, etc. I looked great, sure, but his point was that the entire DO shop of the squadron had trouble passing the test but they were all great pilots and great leaders. They drank their fair share of beers, had their fare share of smokes and Whoppers, but it didn't affect their ability to fly and lead. I admire all of those who stay in shape and look good in a flight suit, but I admire those who stuck around and can fly, lead, and instruct more. If a guy is a fat as*, fine. If he's a fat as* who can fly and lead, then leave him alone and let him do his job. The only thing worse than a fitness freak is a fitness freak who forces his attitude on others. We're not the Army. Get over it.

Before you attack me, I benched 345 lbs at 175 lbs when I was younger. I can't do that anymore, and I'm not 175 lbs, but I feel qualified to be an ADO (which I'm not, but would be had I stayed AD) in a flying squadron and not take shi* from anyone who thinks just b/c they run a mile and a half in under 8 minutes they're better prepared to represent the AF or a combat squadron.

Deuce I assume you were typing your reply while I posted mine.

Let the fat sh*t go.

Give us a good airshow story or shut up!
