Tyler, your article says the H is 185’ long, with a wingspan of 159’...These numbers are reversed. (It’s wider than it is long) #Corrections

I love this jet. Even though 1028 (quite literally) broke my back, I will always love this jet. There isn't another piece of hardware (with MAYBE the exception of the C-130) that has the flexibility, dependability, ruggedness, and longevity of the BUFF. Best job I've ever had, best people I've ever worked with were

Great museum...they've got a Blackbird, a B-36, B-52...B-58...B-45...XF-85...tons of interesting stuff.

VW had a Chinese Strat knockoff in corporate blue & white, and a big VW logo on it...supposedly you could plug it in to the in-car audio.

Waaaait just a damn minute....Ralph & Kacoos is no more?!?!? Been quite a while since I've been to LA (Spent a lot of time in Shreveport/Bossier) and was wanting to take the wife (who has never been to the South) there. Damned shame if it's true. I will break down in tears if Griff's is gone...best damned burgers,

Beautiful video, pretty amazing that this kind of tech is out there, happening now. I worked on B-52Hs, the newest one we had was built in Nov. of 1961...it's amazing how far things have come.

The old man told me to take any rug in the house.

Stamped knives are, without fail, shit. Yep, they're cheap, but they work better as a door stop after a few days' use. Save the money and buy a Shun.

I use (and have used the same) one of these on a daily basis in a professional kitchen. The one I've got has held an amazing edge, and has suffered through going on 5 years of hard work. I've since bought their 5.5" Nakiri, 6.5" half serrated utility, and the Kramer edition bread knife (as well as their 7" "Classic"

First 2 are the Strategic Air Command museum in Nebraska, then Ridgecrest, CA, Santa Maria, CA & Palmdale. Got a lot from that area.

Here are a few from my travels. Any feedback is appreciated!

There's also this, the Northrop JB-1. Built in 1942, it's one of 3 remaining Northrop flying wings in the world, and it's at a nice little museum in Torrance, CA.

Gimmie an A...Gimmie an M....Gimmie another M....Gimmie an O....What's that spell? We Don't Know!

Much love,

Yup, the MHU-196/204 trailer is used to lift the CSRL (Common Strategic Rotary Launcher) into the bay. Good memories of working with them on the flightline at Barksdale AFB.

So, what are your thoughts on using black (fermented) garlic in mashed potatoes? I could eat barrels of the stuff in other applications, but I've been considering dropping it in the mash this year.

Yup, this. I think the program would be much better off if they axed the B model...I know, Marines always get the short end of the tech stick, but they have a very capable fixed wing strike/CAS platform in the FA-18E/F. The Air Force has taken up most of the fixed wing CAS role anyway, with the A-10/F-15E/F-16. I know

The B model (for the USMC) has caused a lot of technical problems, mostly due to the STOV/L requirement placed on the program. The F-35B is a much more complex and labor intensive beast than the conventional take off & landing versions for the Air Force & Navy...though there was that issue last year where the

I agree, the mission capabilities set by the end user are quite steep, and the technical requirements of things such as mission computer programming, sensor integration, and maintaining lofty performance goals are more technologically demanding than aircraft programs of the past, but I wonder how Boeing managed to

The goals for each variant (A,B,C) were laid out pretty early on...I get that there's always reluctance from the Air Force to share its' new toys, but LockMart really dropped the ball on the whole 35 program. It wasn't the fault of the services that test schedules weren't kept (although that whole melting deck plates

As technologically advanced as this engine is (great article about it, btw) it's a shame that it is being built into an inferior platform. Really wish there had been more oversight early on during the JSF program...We might have had an affordable, multi role platform that could fit the needs of the USAF, USN, and
