Im sorry for both of your losses... I lost both my Legs in Afghanistan in 2010 due to an IED.... I was medically retired after 23 years as an infantry platoon sgt.. My Ex wife then filed for divorce due to the fact she couldnt handle me being disabled... I spent 9 mos inpatient ptsd therapy at the VA. I now own a small piece of land and a home in Appalacachia... I love the mountains and peace and quiet.. I have 3 fine dogs and my son is an Army rotc cadet at Notre dame. What got me thru is a Line from the movie "Saving Pvt Ryan" ,,,,, "EARN THIS!!" I owe it to my joes who didnt come home to live a good life........ You gotta have valleys to enjoy the peaks in life.... God bless you all... Rangers lead the way sirs!!!!!!
My condolences to you Gonky about your dog. Losing a pet is one of the worst experiences to go thru as a family. Praying that you and your family have better times ahead…..
So sorry to hear about your dog, Gonky. Losing a pet is hard. Also, wishing you and your family a speedy recovery. Great episode as always! Oh and Gonky was right, the F-15QA is the export model for Qatar. The Saudi export model is the F-15SA.
Losing a dog/pet is so dramatic for many. Mover, Gonkers and I can include myself with the sadness/depression of losing a dog/best friend....buried mine in the backyard last month.
We tell our boys all the time that “you can’t feel your way into an action but you can act your way into a feeling.” When in doubt, do the right thing, keep doing what you know you need to do and most times you won’t believe the progress you make even when going through the darkest valley.
OMG, you had me crying during the "Boeing Revolver" segment. Sorry for your loss, Gonky. Hang in there. Mover, I hear PETA is trying to get the Hague to issue a warrant for you. Great show. Can't wait to hear Mace's thoughts on NATO next week. I had questions but nothing she could have asked or gotten an answer to.
In the 1995 movie Outbreak, the plot included a USAF C-130 dropping (via parachute) a fuel-air bomb that was meant to incinerate a small town that was infected with a deadly virus. At least until the pilots hear a call that there's a cure for this virus and deliberately miss the drop, claiming that "it must have been the wind". But yeah they had a C-130 as a weapons delivery platform. As far as CHiPs goes, there was the Disney movie Planes: Fire & Rescue. Part of the plot included a retired acting helicopter (from a show called CHoPs) who became a firefighting crew chief. But his partner on the show was "Nick 'Loop'n' Lopez" but voiced by Erik Estrada.
You are so right Gonky, after your dog died you felt for how your wife felt, as well as your own feelings of loss, and thats sooooo human. Often times thats what keeps us going, me included. Its the people that you love and who love you back that make us human and make our lives meaningful. Love the show, watch every week, hope the channel continues to grow and grow. Never down, never out. Mental health minute keeps me going and both of you sharing your vulnerabilities is such a powerful way to help others.
Hopefully the family is on the mend. Sux when everyone is down and out like that. All dogs go to heaven. They are a gift from God to start with. He lets us borrow them for a while to ease our existence on this planet. He is back there now. Mine drive me nuts sometimes but, I love them as I do my own kids. Keep the memories . Chin up.
If you already have issues with mental problems, I learned that bad luck comes all at the same moment, and I learned through therapy to get resilient for these low point events. I don't say it makes things easier. But you learn to see symptoms of that low point. And sink down even more. That's how I cope. Gonky a lot of strength with the lost of your dog, that is a hard one. I too had losses of dogs, it's unfair that they have less lifetimes. I have big photo's on the wall here with each of them. Same with my mum. And handle the other issues. Thanks for pop up again. We missed you. On the North Sea, these interceptions are "normal" with that difference, if a Flanker is there, different countries takes over, and there are more jets assisting. Denmark air force are the most busy jets. And now Sweden and Finland in the mix, these events are less common. The Russians become less risky.
The book is called the Ishihara color vision test. If you can see the # on the first plate, that denotes you are color blind, to some degree. My father in law was my AME.
Just seen my first F15 display at the Royal International Air Tattoo in the UK, a Qatari QA. Climbs and levels off like an Abrams battle tank with wings. 😂🤣😭
Gonky sorry for your. Your faith will always carry you through the tough times. "He won't put more on you than you can bare" For Mover, loss like you have an Australian counterpart now...😁
Missed the livecast, but civilian pilot can get a color vision waiver if you fail the color plate test but pass a light gun test. I did and had a class II medical for many years.
You have to play Wildlands with first person mod and vorpx so you can play it in VR, also use the UEVR mod with ready or not! So immersive, even 6dof movement and you can manpulate the rifle anyway you want, like a proper vr game
Unless its a legit military (actual military simulator that is being used and have been used) its a video game...lol 😂😂 especially when you can play it from your moms basement 😂😂

Mover, thank you for sharing the “keep moving” message. Message received. This is the best thing you’ve shared ever. Keep at it!
MOVER - you crack me up man. "No passenger jet I'd rather fight than..."

Great show, wishing everyone is doing well and hanging in there, you all made me LMAO which is much appreciated tonight, thanks again.

Gonky in a Super Vs. Mover in a Viper.
Gonky.... You are loved. You're going to be alright. Hang in there my friend.
41:00 can’t believe that guy (who’s a CFI) tried crossing the continental divide in a 152!!! Then he tried it again and actually made it!

Rapid Dragon palletized cruise missiles out the back of an MC-130J Commando II back in 2022....

Sending prayers gonky's way
Gonky sorry for your. Your faith will always carry you through the tough times. "He won't put more on you than you can bare"
For Mover, loss like you have an Australian counterpart now...😁
Gonky, while in Malaysia did you ever come over for Pitch Black exercise here in Australia? India has their Flankers here this year
No Sir I did not. The RMAF guys LOVE getting invited to Pitch Black.
Would Grippens theoretically come in flat_pack boxes to assemble like IKEA? like 20 in a box truck?
Have any of you ever participated in Australias Pitch Black Exercises? Curious if you;'ve ever used the ADF weapons ranges

The F15QA is Qatars not Saudi Arabias. The EX is based off that base model.
EX is a combo of QA and SA.
Troops. Good mental minutes.
Mover and Doug need to try paint ball, the number of red on red, yellow on yellow, green on green incidents 😊
French Grief aka Rafale or Mirage
We got C-17 launched revolver hypersonic missile before GTA6
fyi, Gripen is also known as the griffin, similar to how the Saab 35 Draken is the Dragon and 37 viggen is the Thunderbolt.

I think there’s more digression with colour vision in civilian aviation. If it’s bad enough, you can’t get your night ticket.
Why havnt you talked about f15 ex out of portland oregon??
I come here for gonky tbh. Sorry about your dog man.
Cemeteries are full of indispensable people
Is the Air Force going to leave the new Eagle as F-15EX or get back to sanity and call it F-15F.........or something like that?
Emergency egress: He/she was going back for their crayons.🤦🏻♂️
Oct 24 1974 c5 launched Icbm
F35 walk of shame 😂
41:00 #ironeagle
Shit. Crap day Gonky 😢
😢😢
Darn Auto correct or fat fingers, hope my wiFe doesn't see this or I'm in trouble 😂
What game is that Doug or mover?
Ready or Not
I think Boeing cant make anything new and exciting, there is no more competition for new stuff.
Unless its a legit military (actual military simulator that is being used and have been used) its a video game...lol 😂😂 especially when you can play it from your moms basement 😂😂
