I took a F-15E pilot on an orientation flight when we were operating out of Balad. Our normal flight profile scared the shit out of him.

Roger that but learning power management during normal peace time ops made it a non issue during deployments.
We used to fly max gas with as much ammo as we could take for a recon mission and max ammo with as much gas as we could hold if we were going to poke someone in the eye.

This is my Great Aunt. She worked a dairy farm with my Great Uncle for about 45 years. All of the cousins in my family would spend time there over the summers. The plane is a BC-12 that they flew off of the farm. They created many wonderful memories for several generations. Tomorrow, January 12, I will be driving 200 miles in a snow storm to see her, because it will be her 100th birthday! Happy Birthday, Aunt Joyce!
