Mmmm that silver F40LM is perfection. Absolute perfection.

Geeee iiiiiii joeeeeee! Welcome.

No, thats not rust, its the color of the fan housing material inside. Its an abradable strip that is used to protect the fan blades and hold a tight clearance as well.

Yeah, maintenance and upkeep is no joke on the VC-25. Hopefully the time code works...otherwise 16 minutes in:

If its a “Glock 7” its undetectable. Ceramic bro. Die hard 2 said it existed.

How Porsche Got Their Groove Back

Even if the USMC or Army wanted the A-10 (which they dont)... the underlying fact is that the airframes are now getting very old.

I'd imagine Eglin had a lot more flights (per day) on average too. Makes sense.

I had the pleasure of listening to these boys fly almost everyday when I lived and worked near the Jacksonville Intl Airport. Their departure path was right over the house and you could hear them coming from a mile away.
