My friend in the back seat (no doubt he made O-6 because of my mentoring), would work the throttles to keep us at whatever the speed was to be - 475-500KIAS. To my shame I never gave it much thought as to what we were learning to do. Shows how dumb O-2s came be when challenged to burn gas and make noise in the name of freedom.Dave's Daily Day Dreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17491764990082380190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-54081515520986520442020-01-02T09:22:01.509-08:002020-01-02T09:22:01.509-08:00Sad innit?Sad innit?OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-22426537936431368902020-01-02T09:03:51.304-08:002020-01-02T09:03:51.304-08:00DITTO!!DITTO!!virgil xenophonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14577165785872035948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-66865142444097575612020-01-01T20:00:40.022-08:002020-01-01T20:00:40.022-08:00Betcha the odor downwind is something to remember ...Betcha the odor downwind is something to remember as well!OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-1404409756657596232020-01-01T20:00:00.159-08:002020-01-01T20:00:00.159-08:00Hahaha!Hahaha!OldAFSargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935839956936191547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-51699189875386657722020-01-01T19:59:39.427-08:002020-01-01T19:59:39.427-08:00I did some poking myself.

The Trump presidency was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by recreating a place where citizens could work peacefully and lawfully. It's a city of call, home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers. Citizens and aliens wrapped in sixty eight point three four square miles, seemingly alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace. This is the story of potentially the last of the American nation. The year is 2020. The name of the place is Washington, District of Columbia.<br /><br />Yeah, I am somewhat trepidatious about this year. But there is hope, hope that we can wrest this great nation from the maw of socialists and try to right her path, to save what we can, to go out a shining beacon of hope to the rest of the world.<br /><br />That, and Cox Cable screwed me so I have to watch the Rose Parade on ABC, which totally blows...<br /><br />Let us hope that reason and sensibility and common sense return to this great nation this year. That a great sweeping of patriotism for all the right reasons cleanses some of the rot and decay from us.<br /><br />And.. well... we just found out two of the reasons for the Dems fight against asking citizenry questions on the census. 1. NYC looks to lose a representative, most likely AOC's district, which has seen a loss of people since she took over, and 2. California looks to lose 2-4 representatives, from... the big cities. Not enough to stop the rot completely, but a good start. And to further bring hope, enough people have fled large cities that small towns and rural communities are actually gaining population and cities are leaking.<br /><br />Of course, not all is good. Over at SNAFU, some chowdahead named Andrew got into flame wars with some idiots over Clint Eastwood praising Trump. Seems that many over at that website don't like old guys and don't understand the Electoral College was meant to balance the popular vote, still 3 years after Trump showed everyone exactly why the EC exists. Friggin morons. Here's a website discussing military stuff and these idjits have no understanding of how the American system works.
