Nice picture Weasel. Is that a Kiowa flying in the background? That picture is just full of all sorts of cool.

Yesterday was Jump Day so I could keep my Jump Pay. biggrin

It was a door jump, which I hate (give me a ramp exit), but the exit was beautiful...the landing? Not so much. I just was glad to get out of that bird after two and a half hours of plane malfunctions and red lights (Thanks 4th ID, that plane wasn't circling to give the pilots hours in the air).

And here is my niece visiting me.

Tim, you're not as I imagined. Remember we spoke on the phone in 2006?

And his ghost may be heard if you pass by that billabong
"Who'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me?"

Yes, I do. So wished you would have been in my neck of the woods (AZ at time) and been able to visit. Maybe someday I can get to Kiwi land...

Okay...what the hell! Here's me. I didn't think a shot of just my ugly mug would get much attention...but I thought the F-16 might.

Interesting flight suit Pooch.


Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

Mr Tim.
When your in your C-130, do you still do the Band Of Brothers "STAND UP! Check Equipment!" etc etc etc?

I'll do an updated few....

I'm in the ball cap:




"For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11

Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Matthew 5:11

Indeed we call blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, because “the Lord is compassionate and merciful. James 5:11

Pooch, you'd have to shoot me down....if I ever got into the cockpit of a 'real' jet like that, I'd never come back. Ever.
You are a lucky, obviously deserving, man.

Nice family Airdrop. Anyone can see the integrity and bond.
Something to be proud of smile

Great photos, nice to put a face with the name here, it means a lot I think.

The in-plane instructions in BoB are fairly accurate to the real thing. IIRC, they were missing a couple of them. I'll have to rewatch the scene.

Thanks, PM.

Murphy, that's a kind thing to say and makes me happy!

I hadn't looked at this thread in ages and I was really glad I did. It's enjoyable to see people you "talk to" even if over this board, in real life.

Airdrop that is a beautiful family you have there. Lots of smiling faces. I look forward to that someday. I want to be an old grandpa when I grow up and I pray that I'm surrounded by such smiling faces and precious lives when I reach my twighlight years. I can't think of anything better.
