Re: Aircraft pics
Thanks! Once I saw the number of chambers, I remembered back to when I read Yeager's book a few years ago.

This one will make you cry! B-52 crash The ultimate sacrifice..... Nuch [/ QUOTE ] This mishap is sad on so many different levels. Foremost, it was a COMPLETELY avoidable event. Pilot was a known flat-hatter and supervisors never came down on him hard enough - just passed the problem-child along to the next supervisor. He was an accident waiting to happen. Very strong indicators prior to mishap that he should have been boarded out. Flat-hatting in a single seat aircraft is taboo. Doing it in a multi-place aircraft is inexcusable.

Re: Aircraft pics
My place up in Wisconsin is due south of the Hardwood Air to Ground Missle range. ANG train up there every weekend. They come in at near treetop...so friggin cool and each and every time I hear one I still run out with my son to look. We visit the range several time in the summer...one of the wildest sounds I have ever heard was the gun practice of an A-10 Warthog...indescribable.They still use live ammunition on gun and small smoke bombs on their bomb runs...
