Eh, it’s not gonna beat my “BRAVE LITTLE TOASTER, OVERSTEER MY BAGEL” shirt. Sam Smith will live on forever in my wardrobe.

I’m gonna complicate this even more and inform you that throughout most of my life, I’ve called it a rear windscreen. I feel it’s probably the most accurate term; most cars have a low-pressure zone right there and if that glass weren’t there it would definite cause a lot of turbulence, even if it doesn’t come with any…
So it’s going to be three years of the episode where they weren’t allowed to be “entertaining” in the US.
I have to say it’d have to be a toss-up between the Mustang owner whose remote-start-equipped stick-shift GT got remote-started into a dealer’s lake(!) by said dealer’s employee, and the dude who poured NOS energy drink into his GSX-R’s gas tank for more octane.

I’m an E-2C Hawkeye maintainer with nearly 14 years in the Navy - I’ve watched literally hundreds, if not thousands, of planes do the same thing in the picture. I’d say somewhere between 40-60% of the time they do in fact land rear wheels first, but the rest of the time it’s a definite three-pointer, and even when…
PTIDs.
Do remember that the E-2D can do just dandy in the BACN role, and has many of the capabilities of the more secret-squirrel USAF aircraft.
Fun Fact: The speed of RF transmissions, say, from a police vehicle to a dispatch centre then shortly to a helicopter, is exactly the same in the EU that it is in the US.
After the verdict, the Oregon State Police released a statement as reported by the Register-Guard, saying their office “is disappointed with the (trial) outcome and feels the actions of our troopers clearly did not violate established procedures or tactics. In situations like these, officers have milliseconds to make…
1) CG crew not certified to land on Zumwalt’s deck
Tee hee! That’s always been one of my favorite facts about the A-4. Gravity-powered slats never ceases to blow my mind.
The jet’s slats were also reported to be unpowered at the time.
You’re right, you don’t tune an NA car for peak power - you tune it for more aggressive spark under partial throttle, which gives you a little more under the curve at off-peak RPMs. You also tune it to fix god-awful throttle response and curves, terrible shifting curves in automatics, and the aggravating tendency for…
If you look at the outer wing panels, you can see the rather severe and frequent control inputs, but if you look closer you can see the fairly severe buffeting indicating severe turbulence, generally right before said control inputs.
Specifically, one. You. The B-1 is a bomber.
I’m in the Navy. It’s not a culture. It’s a way of life.
Obviously the Taurus SHO. Its one redeeming feature was the best engine to come out of the 80s, and most of the 90s. Otherwise, it was a shit can Taurus.
