Gator flies the best A-10 demo I’ve ever seen. He is next level! The tail slap, aka squat - is that an aggressive leveling off or to bleed a ton...
Fun fact: Kafka’s inspiration for his works was the FAA.
Ah hell, I should’ve bought gas at Okeechobee the other morning. It was $5.58. Today it’s up to $6.54 according to Foreflight. WTF?
I’d love to see someone create a banner about half a mile long and a hundred yards high, and tow it behind a C-130 at 3,001’ right over Disney...
I don’t care what party he/she is from, I just hope the next President hails from Pt. Barrow.
I guess the marble, polished floors, leather furniture, $9.00 fuel and free cookies are great for the G-650 passengers. All I want is self-serve,...
