      Sat in the boom operator seat once at an air show. The rest of my family of three sat in the cockpit while I took photos. But it was interesting. While in line waiting to get into the cockpit, a fellow attendee said she was a flight attendant and recognized the same kind of coffee maker she used on DC-10s.

    regarding Gonky asking if the F-35's attachable pylons are stealthy, they are not. But there is a program underway to develop stealthy pylons/fuel tanks for the F-22 that could probably apply to fat amy too. It won't be as stealthy as a slick plane, but still an improvement. I personally wonder if it will be like a shell that covers most of the missile, because most missiles aren't stealthy. It will be very interesting to see how that affects F-35 loadouts. Good show, Mace is great, everyone was in top form tonight, had me laughing.

    I'm italian. So i know some stuff about the frecce tricolori. We fly the mb-339 PAN, which is a modified version of the mb-339A. It is both used by the national demo team and for the advanced fase in pilot training. Fun fact it is also nick named the "Macchino", because despite it being a subsonic aircraft( similar to the t-45 the us navy), it is so light that it can easily fly near supersonic speeds. It is a very versatile aircraft for what it looks like at naked eye. Some countries even use it for ground attack and mount big gun pods on them. About the frecce tricolori, there is to say that we have the most numerous demo team in the world with a total of 10 aircrafts, number 10 being the solo pilot. And i think that this year the frecce tricolori will be doing a tour in America.

      The early DOHC VTEC system did two things. One was a hydraulic flap that led to a more aggressive cam profile when locked in. But it was coupled with a runner that opened up the air intake wider at higher revs.

    Concerning our Frecce Tricolori (probably one of the hardest word to pronounce for a foreigner 😂) team, they will tour US this summer, from June to August, so might be an occasion for Mace to see them!
    Also, it will be one of the last years flying the Aermacchi MB339-PAN, before they transition to the newer Leonardo M345 soon.

    That's pretty cool that she was the first woman to fly in the lead solo position. As the first she is notable, but personally, I try not to make a big deal out of women in roles like that. I think we should treat it as a normal thing, like, "of course women can do that, why would you think not?" I'd argue that treating a female pilot as normal is the more respectful thing to do. If it were me I wouldn't want extra attention; I'd want to be treated like any other jet fighter pilot. It should all come down to whether or not the individual can do the job, or be the best candidate for competitive positions. Like, I want the best wingman I can get regardless of what's between their legs.

    They are using Scud-B and -C missiles, the North Korean Hwasong variants, the Tochka missile, the Qaher-1 missile, the Zelzal-3 ballistic missile and the C-802 anti-ship cruise missile. So response time varies due to different speeds and detection ranges

    @ILruffian 4 месяца назад

    Blue on blue is a nightmare scenario. I know that Mover does the PD thing as well as aviation. Four of the guys I worked with (PD) got into a blue-on-blue. Off-duty rookie from another department decides to try and make an off-duty arrest without his shield or ID, and with his gun in his waistband. Perp resists, gun falls (not in holster) and they wrestle for it. Trigger gets hit, shot goes off. Our guys are in the area and walk up on it. Off-duty rookie turns and points the gun toward them and they turn him into Swiss cheese. Simply horrible.

  • @paulholmes672
    @paulholmes672 4 месяца назад

    The nose gear collapsed because the strut lock did not lock for some reason. In my experience, all of my jets had either over center gear position, (Weight on Wheel not allowing it to retract) or actual retraction strut locks, especially when you have folding strut braces (always on the nose gear), not sure what Fat Amy has, but it was obviously not locked. The reason why it collapsed slowly after shutdown is, even after the motor driven pumps stop producing pressure, the hydraulic accumulators retain system pressure, and bleed off for a short time. This would keep the extension cylinder full for a time. The pins are always installed after hydraulic pressure is off the aircraft, as a bleed down retraction is not good if you are in the wheel well installing locks.
    Our F-111 was notable in this, as far as retained Utility Hydraulic pressure. Upon last engine shutdown, the Emergency generator (hydraulically driven) would kick in (due to loss of engine AC power) with a major turbine whine, and run for a few seconds, and then the final item, before the pilots would exit, they would watch the canopy mirrors (along with all of us on the flightline) for the horizontal stabs to droop, indicating the hydraulic pressure was indeed off the aircraft. If they did NOT droop, we were required to do full motion checks on the stab actuators, to insure we did not have bind or valve issues.

    1:22:35 thats why i maintain moving to drones fully is not a good plan... drones need a link to control and relay.. any link can be severed by advanced or clever enough means.. when that happens your drone would need to be autonomous AI to complete the mission alone..and would you really want that? if the enemy can jam the link they can also jam the GPS signal, sensors any other stuff that would make your now autonomous deaf drone also blind..
    So drones might work in low threat enviroments and to some degree in modern battlefields but a clever or advanced enought enemy could find a way to neutralize them just with jamming and then you would have a huge problem if you resort mostly on them...
