  1. You mean reading Cyrillic, metric gauges and an attitude indicator that views the plane from the ground instead of the horizon? Just spitballing here, and stick with me….What if we give foreign pilots 737 Maxs loaded with explosives? 😁
  2. Fire finder radar and counter battery artillery are things. Do the Ukrainians have sufficient mechanized artillery pieces and the ability to move and fire like we do? I don’t know. But I’m pretty sure they Russians have MLRS systems with cluster munitions available if they don’t. Maybe one volley. Or two, and then displace rearwards as quickly as possible?
  3. Shame we never built the JSOWs with the smart cluster bomblets that pick targets and fire shaped charges through to top armor. About 15-20 of those would put a real hurting on that column.
  4. No one is shooting most of anyone’s nukes down. That is a pipe dream.
  5. They’ve been talking about restarting the production line on the 124 since most of those are getting long in the tooth and fulfill a heavy lift role that no other non military plane can. That would make it easier to build a new 225 if Ukraine survives this mess.
  6. Who’s got a surplus of Soviet era fighters? Poland? Germany? This isn’t Independence Day where some mad Ukrainian crop duster mounts up on an F18 after a crash course in modern avionics. I suspect Russia may lash out at those countries in some manner first if they’re really in “Why the Fuck Not?” mode.
  7. There’s probably a stealthy multi-role fighter we have that’s been described as being one big sensor being used in that role right now. Maybe one that was just deployed to Lakenheath.
  8. Going around and not reconfiguring the aircraft by retracting the gear or adjusting the flaps is usually a tell tale sign of a wind shear warning.
  9. I didn’t realize they were phasing out their Twin Cessnas. Rode one of those from Lebanon, NH to Boston on the way home once.
  10. I don’t think he understood that “ Russian T-something” referred to tank destinations.
  11. Yup. It’s not downtown Dallas, but it’s pretty much in the heart of the metroplex. I see that synagogue all the time. Quiet little place holed up between some nice housing, a middle school, the Vatican 2.0 and downtown Colleyville.
  12. I guess a Conquest is out of the question also? A II is a hot rod.
  13. Has anyone claimed his luggage? That shit is legit.
  14. Sam never had the benefit of three years of college football practice before being called on to face a shitty Buff defense with no scouting report on him. Sam is going to play in the NFL.
  15. He’s not a great fit for the V/S.
  16. It’s been while, but I’ve flown several C90’s. The F90 was the T tail hot rod if I remember right. Agree with the poster above. I’d think you could located a B200 in the same price range and have a lot more mission capability.
  17. Still haven’t seen her and Mickey Rourke in the same room.
  18. Stop me if you’ve heard this one. Mack Brown team struggles when opponent does unexpected things.
  19. Collect larger paychecks and pad their resumes.
  20. Looks like Andre Coleman just received his walking papers. Pitt WR coach Brennan Marion being floated as a possible replacement.
  21. A good guess, but she’s from Palermo. The most conquered city in history.
  22. I dunno, the offender might just show them a picture of the list eater and have the monkeys understand the natural o predicament male residents of Brazos county are in. Shit, in that context I almost understand the sheep shenanigans.
  23. I’ve got an idea about handling the feral pig population in Texas….
  24. Sneaking’em through the B gap.
  25. This is rich coming from a guy who won a MNC at Auburn after buying Cam Newton, and likely more than a few others.
