Every landing is graded, regardless of conditions. I agree with your overall point though.

I remember that sandstorm. I’ve got some pretty amazing pictures around here somewhere of it. While I knew it shut down airpower, I had no idea that it was doing so from actual carriers and airfields. I figured it was just the battlespace. Cheers on neat post.

Hahah thanks. If there is a badass scale im easily a one on a scale of ten though. Years later, I’m not so sure being a one is worth it when you’re still years away from being 40 but when you get up in the morning everything creaks and hurts. Thanks for the compliment :)

What? I spend a decade in uniform, most of it with an elite unit I was never paid anything near “a premium”. Rofl you have no clue what you’re talking about.

Cheers. Growing up i was a little bit chubby and always self-conscious about it, so I worked my ass off. By the time I graduated high-school I had set half of the schools weight-lifting numbers along with being a pretty solid runner and was 10% body fat.

Tyler, can you pull “Ancient Subhunter” out of the grey’s if you haven’t already. People should see his posts.

Yes they can. It’s only the lift fan+F135 that can’t be carried. It only affects the STOVL/VTOL variant. One C-2 can’t carry the lift fan+F135 either.

I’m pretty sure he’s Russian with a limited grasp of English. That being said he seems like a good guy. I’ve tried to talk to him a few times.

Hey buddy, glad to see you posting.

Who gives a shit who sold it to them? Dozens of other countries are capable of storing these weapons without using them. If Ferrari sells a 600whp car to a 16 year old that buries it in a fence ten minutes later is it Ferrari’s fault? Funny how much worse everything sounds when you’re a flaming ingrate.

The point is, you have no firsthand knowledge of anything. You know nothing about the country and the people except what you read in the paper. I lived there. I’ll go with what I know instead of what you think you know. I was there when insurgent forces were using Saddam’s chlorine artillery as IEDs. That doesn’t…

Not quite that limited...

How am I the first person starring you?

You’re a dunce.

Jesus yer dumb.

Don’t even try. The most moronic idiots on the internet troll around here. I could provide two-dozen phone numbers, that would be answered by everyday Iraqi’s, from all three of the major sects, that would tell anyone who asked, that they’re glad Saddam is gone, regardless of costs. The average American has no idea…

Ok will do. In the meanwhile, have you found nopistons.com yet? It’s a much smaller community, but everyone there is far more civil and far more knowledgeable than rx7club. Rx7 club is mostly enthusiasts, and the trolling+elitist crap gets really thick there. I rarely visit there. Nopistons.com is full of guys that…

Visited a few dozen times, that’s about it. It’s just so much larger than everywhere else, and all that oil money guarantees you see cars you really won’t see anywhere else in the country. Plus you guys have fun with ‘em.

Facetious

IMO, Houston has the best car culture in the country. Thanks for sharing.
