Shadrach Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 Normally I would ignore such crass behavior…but I think this place is getting too uptight. I made an inadvertent C&B when I flew over a pool party last weekend. Unflattering proportions… Of course reoriented it looks more like a Dicknose under glasses… 1 Quote

N201MKTurbo Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 It is so easy these days, you just have to look on your breadcrumbs on Foreflight. In the old days you had to do some serious flight planning, but now we just draw pictures on our IPads. Quote

Come on guys do something difficult and maybe artistic, like a flower maybe? Daisy ought to be do-able, tough but do-able. 1 Quote
BloodRedSkies Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 I mean it doesn't have to be just juvenile routes(although I admit I laughed) but we could start a thread for flight aware drawings as a way of engagement? Quote

Most of us stopped being fascinated with this sort of thing after high school. I know that it's crude and debated whether to engage at all. However, given the coincidental recency of my own inadvertent drawing and the fact that things have gotten a little stiff around here lately (pun intended), I thought the place could use a little childish levity. 2 Quote

Not to mention being around the Air Force and working on submarines. What is so wrong with a little sophomoric levity. 1 Quote

EricJ Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 The "accidental" USAF version happened near here while one of our local Mooneyspace members was based at Luke flying F-35s at the time (he has since been reassigned and sold his Mooney). I asked him if he could claim credit but he said it wasn't him. 1 Quote

"an official told Military.com that the individuals were permitted to retain their status as aviators." It'd be ridiculous to permanently remove two skilled aviators from duty over something that did not endanger person nor property and likely no regulations at the time, I am sure the regulation part has been remedied.

I have been around the Air Force most of my life being in Civil Air Patrol. With submarines I was an engineer working on them. Quote
