Yep, the seriously important stuff is the backseater. The front seater just got to be the taxi driver.

I can add to that for the Navy side. Quick math simply that. Big numbers that are rounded up are easily divisible. If I'm burning 4000lbs per hour I know everything 15 minutes I'm eating up 1,000lbs of fuel. If I were to do that with nautical miles per gallon, my head would explode. It would be something along the…

Oh if only that was true. I can't imagine what the NATOPS books on these things were like.

Hey don't forget the T 45!

On this you are incorrect. The radar cross section (RCS) released to the public was slotted between the F-22 and the B-2 bomber. People really don't like these guys, but when you see and hear them, the plane is really wild.

As of right now I can agree, but eventually they will put a backseat in these just like the 18's, and the capabilities will increase 10 fold.

I think with time your mind will change. These planes are insane, and I love them. I'm a backseater so I'll never have a chance to get in one. I want to though.

I have to give you props Tyler, you know I love Wingnuts videos. More importantly I just landed my first training strike flight and showed this prior to debrief it sent a good vibe through the squadron.

We are the worst at it. The worst.

As long as you are cleared into Bravo airspace and cleared to land there are no fines. There are ramp fees, but that is just paying for parking and facilities. Issues arise if you aren't cleared into Bravo airspace and head toward the airport anyway.

What is the ramp fee for a civilian A/c at Chicago. I bet it is quite a few dollars. Cessnas are so slow on final it's almost painful to watch when you aren't at the controls.

Here is the good news, you can tell by the landing profile of the crashed jet the pilot had time to eject. The pilot trimmed the plane to get ready for a controlled election then got out. If you have to eject this is the best possible outcome. If the paddle boater saw a chute and the viper glide down to earth it…

He isn't an officer so...

They have a system in place already the same one they use to ticket booth jumpers on the subway. They take your license or identification and issue you ticket. It would be a much easier transaction then pulling cars over. Everyone is to blame here but you can't take cars out of NYC. It isn't even responsible to think…

I agree. I lived in the Bronx for 5 years and without a car I would have been out of luck. We used a vehicle to get into manhattan about as much as the trains because it takes just as long as the D train. If they enforce traffic laws, they should enforce all of them including Jay walking. Pulling a pedestrian to…

I think it would be a lot of fun to be very rich and smart. You can start by designing a ground breaking car, then you can make some sort of competitor for legos, create a new type of potato chip, and take a trip to space. Having brains and monies would be ADHD X 10 for me.

Between 0-25 minutes down here in Pensacola, which is pretty realistic depending on if the blue angels are practicing.

I have one EOD hopeful friend who should be finished up dive school here in the next few months. I grew up around spec war guys and thats why I went aviation. When I talk/hang/work out with him and others I'm happy to be hopefully going into super hornet lets just say that.

Very nice article, but you forgot to mention two things. One, with training we can sustain 9 G's without a G suit in the centrifuge and in the jet. After spinning in the cfet they explained at about 12 sustained G's you are going to gloc no matter what you do. Instant accel our bodies can handle an insane amount…
