They are, but if you go to freefall school, you’ll get a minimum of 23 right there.

There’s cold weather gear for that. They’re static line jumping just for the ease of all involved.

PJ——”This is fucking bullshit! I thought I was done with ridiculous static-line jumps!”

They aren’t missing it. They just think that shit is fun!

Did you get my E-mail Tyler?

Ever been supported by one? It’s fucking terrifying and awesome all at the same time.

I’m aware. I said as much to DCV.

I’m really not sure. I saw it on flightglobal months ago under the article about the AC-130 that was written off because it attained an accidental inverted attitude. Not sure if this is a picture of that event or just a picture somebody spun around. Google AC-130 inverted and you’ll find the same pic spun around. But,…

I gotcha. Just wanted to post that picture :)

“A10 > any gunship.”

“I don’t think that losses would always make a nation steadfast and resolute to endure and win, it might lead to exactly the opposite results.”

What’s your point?

I hear you. I just can’t ever condone the losses of people that have absolutely nothing to do with the big picture. Of people that are simply trying to do what is right in their opinion. I mean hell, they still conscript large swaths of their military. Americans enlist or are commissioned with a very good idea of what…

Not really. If for whatever reason they needed to drop down it would only be momentarily until weapons release, then they’d get back to altitude. They’ve been aware of the potential for MANPADs since day one, and as a result, they aren’t risking the aircraft or crew anymore than absolutely necessary. Accuracy doesn’t…

Eh don’t buy that crap about that system. It’s literally a CCRP bombing mode that has been around for decades in almost every modern strike fighter. The CEP isn’t any better than its counterparts being used by other countries.

Eh i suppose. Doesn’t seem like an issue as they’d both be paying a lot of attention to the instruments anyways. Especially at night. Nobody has ever voiced that as concern in the myriad of rotary wing aicraft with side-by-side seating. Tell your copilot to look out the window if you need to. More likely they’d have…

Might as well swing for the fences and post that meme with Fred Thompson while you're at it...

Don’t care about the aircraft but I don’t want to see any more pilots killed in cold blood. They’re just like our pilots. Young, dumb and full of cum. They’re proud, patriotic, and undoubtedly are little more than pawns for Putin. Id assume most of the Russian military believes what the Kremlin tells them.

Really?

Hahah. Best comment I’ve seen in awhile!
