Classic words, but I do agree.

The exhausts on the Gen 2s came out of the rear. The side pipes are aftermarket.

Somebody doesn’t like race cars!

Ejection seats are usually permanently disabled when military aircraft are sold to civilians for various reasons. One being the price to service.

P-3’s are fantastic at flying low in high humidity near water.

The reason can be as simple as not being able to reach the handle. If you’re not strapped in tightly and you get into OCF the forces can separate you from the handle. Also the angle of ejection if the plane is rolling and you don’t want to go for a rocket ride into trees or bad SA to what is going on outside.

?? I’m confused by your statement.

That I never went, but somehow my parents still got the drivers ed insurance discount and one day when I’m 40 I’ll go to jail for insurance fraud. Scary stuff.

Obligatory Apache crew showing the terrible decision making and CRM.

For Sale: Fastest RS6 in the world. Burnt Gray, 6 speed, ran when parked. Rims in near perfect condition just needs a quick wash. Perfect for those spring skiing days when you just want to drop the top and cruise to the mountain plus tons of open storage space.

Evolution trikes are the lightest of the bunch. When I was based out of Pensacola I got stuck out in Zephyrhills FL. The owner and head designer of Evo Trikes was there and wanted to check out our plane and in return he let us fly one of these 130,000$ trikes. Hands down the definition of southern hospitality and they…

I have and love blue cars. I like attention, but I’m a big fan of blue mostly.

She has a manual. We moved from Pensacola FL to Whidbey Island WA, and I wasn’t going to own a Viper up here as my DD so now we both own Golf R’s because I actually really like this car. Mine is a ‘15 DSG.

‘09 Laser Blue Elise SC, ‘05 B/W Viper. She drives a ‘12 Golf R black on black because it is understated and no one knows it is her flying past them on the highway just another black hatch back.

One of the craziest things I got my lady to say when I picked her up surprising her with a Viper I bought was, “Well this makes more sense than your last car...” If you buy a Lotus no matter how beautiful they are any car besides a caterham becomes practical. I just changed the perspective of the situation.

I’ve read through all the responses and I think my only question is does she actually know about the quality of the vehicle, or does she only care about the name. I’m one of the luckiest guys with my soon to be wife when it comes to cars though and this isn’t the case for everyone.

I don’t understand what your point is about air sorties vs SEAL stories. They aren’t similar and they can’t be compared. Having said that, Kinja’s editing rules are terrible.

But you’re still wrong. First, congrats on learning the bold next you can learn italics, and finally my favorite strikethrough. The guys you mentioned are a small sample. A few bad apples who realized they want fame more than honor. Those who serve in the spec warfare communities don’t look highly upon them. They are…

You are correct. I posted the our chart. Every tactical jet in the Navy has 136 as the minimum nude weight. The 136 isn’t the issue. The issue is Martin Baker saying they could make 103 a realistic weight then realizing they can’t.

You’ll have a lot more dead pilots on your hands from HANS.
