    M 931A2 no START after vacation , will have you in stitches

    May I suggest you organize a little FAMILIARIZATION CLASS, and then have "Graduates" conscripted as your MOTORPOOL SECURITY FORCE, thus delinquency into purpose. I have the neighborhood kids on my security team. If anyone of them sees something out of sorts, they have my phone number. In...

    Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

    Not exactly a "Low Flight", but it IS a CLOSE passing of two aircraft from a VERY unique angle and perspective..... On June 17 a pilot filmed another aircraft coming straight at him just a 1000 feet below him leaving a beautiful contrail behind. Just amazingly beautiful. (The article is in...

    SR71 Blackbird

    Thanks for that. Just for emphasis.... M-21 - The Mother ship. D-21 - The Daughter ship - aka: Drone. They were the Skunk Works' KELLY JOHNSON's designations that stuck.

    Honoring the Proud American Gun Truck

    Ahab, Your discomfort about the children wearing combat gear is understandable. I'd like to encourage you to look at it not as being groomed for battle, but as a LIVING HISTORY experience. Giving them a grasp of the weight of a steel pot helmet, an ammo belt or pack, the smell of the canvas and...

    Dump Truck Operations: Pay Attention

    Great topic. It seems your single-sentence post is an injustice to the real learning experience that COULD be shared here.

    Need to Rent a wrecker around Orlando FL

    By providing more specific information, your response rate will be significantly improved. What are you wanting to use a wrecker for? Will you or someone else (qualifications?) be the operator? What additional equipment/rigging will you require? Etc., etc., etc.. :driver:

    ME-323, the Messerschmitt "GIANT" - Largest Air Transport of WWII

    Not really intending to hijack this thread (that I started in the first place), but.... Since the StartoLaunch isn't exactly a "military vehicle" I'm going to refrain from starting a dedicated thread for it. Yet at the same time, I thought it appropriate to share this article here...
