    NightHawk One aka Marine One

    In a far distant galaxy, a long, long time ago, I had a professional relationship with some of the aforementioned guys in black suits. Everything else is classified.

    My M109A3 Camper Build Thread

    300 gallons of water x 8 pounds per gallon = 2400 pounds of water. That does not leave a lot for everything else, since you only have 5000 pounds of cargo/modification equipment as your off-road limit. I realize that strikes out a flush toilet and long hot showers, but something's got to give.

    M109 van body folding back porch?????? Got pictures... Design????

    My sink operation is mounted on another MKT which is backed up to the cooking MKT. But that does require a second truck and driver. I did have built a platform that goes between the truck and trailer, mounting on the bumperettes, but it's mainly to bridge the gap between the shop van door and...

    It's been posted before, including the pictures/drawings of where things go (but you've been too busy with your Common Tool Set to think about it).

    batteries in lmtv?

    I've bought blems from Interstate for $60 each. Before Uncle went to Hawkers, we could get them all the time, now, not so much. If you ask, they are available!

    HMMWV's for sale, no longer maybe, it happened

    And in spite of facts. As John said, I don't want one. One of our local club members has one, and it stays broken about 20-35 percent of the time for one reason or the other. If the demill code changes, wait about four years to make a purchase, prices will have dropped through the floor. In...

    AS-3916 Masts - where are they??

    Are you looking for an antenna to go on top of the AS-3916? Or a mast to attach a sugar-scoop to? 3916's were mainly used in vehicles, not a fixed station, which do have (relatively) tall masts.

    Photos of combustion chambers & injectors from 2 engines running WMO

    Andy's pistons all but last one show some valve impingment. I wonder if that was a cause or an effect of the wear in the front?

    Survival 109 build

    I agree, cooking should be done in a separate area from sleeping, either outside, or on a trailer. In the colonial times, our ancestors had their kitchens in a separate building because of the danger of fires. Microwave inside might be OK, but keep the really hot stuff away from where you sleep.

    Survival 109 build

    Put it in shallow containers and make sure there is air circulation on all sides. What you are trying to do is get the temp from over 140 F to less than 40 F as quickly as possible (less than 30 minutes, preferably 15-20). The 'danger zone' is considered between 40 and 140 F, where the number...

    Sanitize!!!! Commercial kitchen requirement. That's why I have a second MKT with three sinks, a drain table and drying racks.

    I know the people with the MV/WWII setup, they will be back next year with a lot more! The COBRA rides were expensive ($500), but well worth it!
