Who are the better pilots?

[Huggyu2]

Fury: your jet IS cool. The T-38 rocks.
Sundown: yes, it's a trainer... and if you haven't flown it, you be surprised as to how cool it actually is to fly it.

Thanks Huggy, but I think you're biased.

SUNDOWN (as in..."you could have had him, Mav!") is spouting about things he knows nothing about and then is getting offended at my reaction. Clinical SNAP symptoms.

Peace, I'm out. I need my sleep to be a dyed-in-the-wool-killer-trainer pilot tomorrow.

 

[SIG600]

I am sure you are a died in the wool killer flying training aircraft.

Educate yourself... the T-38 is still a tactical aircraft, and based on the F-5. Something used as an attack a/c in lots of other countries, and used as aggressors by the US Navy. How many supersonic aircraft have you flown? Homo...

 

[SUNDOWN]

Oh, and while you're skilled at spouting TopGun-isms, don't forget that you're the one called "SUNDOWN." YGBSM.

????????????

He's reffering to VF-111... The Sundowners

The internet movie database takes the credit for this one: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092099/


The actor Clarence Gilyard, Jr. played "Maverick's" stand-in RIO (or is it a NFO...I'm not a Navy guy) after "Goose" bought the proverbial farm. He is also easily-spotted in the "you've lost that lovin' feeling" sequence, mostly because he's the only African-American actor in the bar.


His callsign? SUNDOWN.


Back to the forum from whence you came, SNAP-o-riffic.

SUNDOWN = OWNED!:smash:

I am unfamiliar with sundowners. It actually has a reference to something outside of aviation (imagine that). I get paid by the hour fellas so I don't need to go supersonic. Now give each other a big reassuring hug and know that all is going to be OK. I think I figured out what SNAP is. Your buddies at Graduation. "Oh SNAP....You got a T-38 instead of a real fighter!"

For the rest of you look at the thread and realize why I posted. Your friend SNAP tore into some dude that is probably his biggest fan..well, with the exception of that groupie JSTOCK.

You're still not grasping the concept, but keep digging the hole. It's most entertaining.

JSTOCCK groupie is going to UPT. I'd say that makes him an excited up and coming member of the band, not a groupie.

FWIW...I dug the kayak avatar. I use to have a pretty good eskimo roll, which I needed quite a bit since I wasn't the best on setting a good brace. Still...some of the most exciting times I've had (to include flying fighters) was in my old Hydra Taurus...

 

[Fury220]

Your buddies at Graduation. "Oh SNAP....You got a T-38 instead of a real fighter!"

That's RIGHT. I forgot that's my permanent assignment and it must OBVIOUSLY mean I was a sh*t-bag in my class. You hit it right on the cranium there, buddy..


Recognize: The more you open your mouth, the more you demonstrate your willingness to post about things you have no conceptual grasp upon.



Talking out of turn...another SNAP symptom.

 

[SIG600]

Hahaha dude you're killing me.

Another reason I don't miss commercial aviation... some people just have no clue.

I see you're familiar with the term "SNAP," eh?

Who are the better pilots - The Coast Guard guys of course

Here at the airline I fly for we've got a bunch of both. It's been my experience that there's not a lot of difference between Air Force and Navy pilots, except that Navy guys don't seem to know how to lighten up in the aircraft. As well, you can tell a Navy pilot a mile away, without ever setting foot in the jet.

SUNDOWN,
Sory if I offended you but you just keep digging and not gaining any ground. I am just a rook so I usually shut my face and analyze when I don't know whats going on.

Anyway, since were in the mood for "Top Gun" quotes I feel the this one is very appropriate.
