Separate names with a comma.
Oh for sure a good technique (or for us without ILS, I'd normally radar map the end of the runway and build self contained guidance off that)
I imagine you are talking about a GCA/PAR approach. Very common at mil airfields, especially those serving aircraft without self contained...
And to be even more specific, I'll always remember the wisdom an old skipper of mine told me before my first deployment. Something along the lines...
Undefined decades later from @Tools experience, I'd say the pilot ratio is about the same. Any given airwing probably has a half dozen female...
I imagine he probably actually did it. The issue (apparently) is that the govt case isn't strong, in a legal sense. I.e. OJ Simpson, but in a much...
It's truly amazing that, throughout generations of idiots in orange/whites, more of us don't die right here. I think a nuclear detonation could...
Yep, hand on the "towel rack" of the canopy bow was a Hornet invention. Most previous aircraft required direct aft stick input to affect rotation,...
It was kind of funny listening to the audio + HUD (and other) footage from the 2017 Fitter shootdown in Syria. The guy who shot it down was...
Similar scenario for us in the USN. We have two scales for AvIP (aka flight pay). The baseline scale tops out at years 14-22 at $840/mo. The...
TCABM is speaking to USAF/CAF hours I imagine. We use our Vipers entirely for red air (also known as adversary - USN, or in USAF terms -...
GD man, that is a lot of hours in that thing. Most of my viper hours were a .3-.7 at a time. Takes a very long time for that to add up to a...
Yessir, I can attest that none of this has changed (aside from the pre-ETS stuff) to this day. I think Nauga's explanation is more accurate than...
Interesting topic, and man, SpaceX does pay a more appropriate rate, IMHO. Side topic, or point of order......there are places in the civilian...
Agreed. I got the Pfizer x2 pretty early on when it came to general consumption, and a booster after my wife guilted me into it last dec. Shocker...
To further confuse the discussion, operational VFA squadrons are either E or F, not both. So you have single seat squadrons with no WSOs, and then...
:D @midwestpa24 for practical flying qualities purposes, I have never noticed a big difference between it and the Rhino in clean, CL tank/pylons...
Yessir. I honestly don't know the answer to your question. It is very subtle, but the leading edges are also slightly different in the G compared...
To clear up any confusion, there is a lot of different "software" in an F/A-18. The difference they are speaking to is the mission computer...
I think there is a pretty wide variance in that experience, depending on where you go. All should, of course, be holding anyone to ACS, but...
Don't think it is a real fear, just not wanting to enable Iran to maintain/sustain their fleet. Realistically, the Tomcat still has the ability to...
