Flyovers (over the crowd) are specifically banned from being performed.

Every day should feel this good.

Obama? There are plenty of gifs of him.

Sauber?

It’s weird to see the AN-124 called by its NATO name. I'm used to calling it the ruslan

I think the part about this that chaps my ass the most (no pun intended) is the notion that trainers aren’t supposed to be female. In every athletic endeavor I’ve participated in the head trainer has been female and (AFAIK) hasn’t caused any issues. Maybe we were just more mature (which is surprising considering that

Now I was in that exact situation in 2005 with a GTO (except my name isn't in that list) and I never did anything like this.

Bummer. I do have some neat pictures that a contact at ALC sent me of one of the early hercs painted in a retro scheme just prior to retirement. If you’ve been to ALC recently its parked just outside of the DRS facility (although I understand that is now a USCG facility.)

Thats a change then. When I was at the ALC back earlier this year I was at the DRS facility and they were planning on doing a C-130 in that Blue and Gold Paint Scheme (at least that what I was told by the HC-144 guys) they even had a mockup of the paint scheme by sign in.

Hot damn. I'd try that next time I make a request but as my flying is all domestic US I'd think it would have the same effect as squawking 7500

do they actually say inshallah

yeah that’s air to air photography and planned. The TCAS on the A380 would have wigged out and issued an RA otherwise.

Guess they don’t think we are salty at Urban too?

Yep and if you or misplace a government tool you get to fill out a lengthy tool loss report AND pony up cost of replacement. Oh the tool has been in service since 1993 and hasn’t been used in 10 years? Tfb

Unfortunately the only time I was ever at a bike accident before the first responders had arrived it was after a high speed impact into a vehicle that had just been in an accident itself. The rider was obviously fatally wounded and it wasn't a pretty sight. Although it was almost 2 years ago I still remember it quite
