    Jockey 14. Look it up. I had just left Mogadishu two weeks before the crash. I gave the year wrong. I got to Mogadishu in October 1993 and left first week in March 1994. I passed back through Mombasa. Crews were staying at the White Sands.

    Cool concept, but not a fan of landing in the water pontoons or not. We lost a Gunship off Kenya that was forced to ditch in 1993.

    Never really worried about the folks in the back. At a couple hundred of feet AGL, you are worried about not smacking into the ground. I figure if I die the folks in the back die a split nanosecond after me. We lost a Talon 2 in Albania about 17 years ago in the mountains doing TF/TA. Even with...

    Great question. I know he wants to drop bombs. He is intrigued by the Lancer. He was originally intrigued with Gunships because of me, but he was told on the AC-130J the FCO does the shooting not the AC. I told him I would go MC-130J Combat Talon IIIs to fly TF/TA.. He could eventually fly the...

    I told Chris you will truly arrive when you fly your jet over Hard Rock (or the new stadium) before kickoff in 8 to 10 years. Haha. On that note, my son' girlfriend who also just graduated is headed to Cal Tech for her dictorate. Her mentor is at JPL. Where is your son headed to med school?

    She needs to work on her salute. That requires a lot of one on one instruction.

    Probably. The pilot shortage will be biblical in 12 months for airlines. Mandatory retirement is age 65. FAA considering raising it to 67. All my buddies are running out of time.

    So Sebastian comes out and does the C-A-N-E-S cheer at the end. Must have been a fill in. Anyway, I'm in the upper terrace directly on other side of main stage at Watsco. My wife and daughter are laughing. I am the only one doing the cheer. Trust me I covered for the section. I was loud and...
