Zulu Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 If im not mistaken it still holds the climb rate record To INVENT an Airplane is Nothing. To BUILD One is Something. But to FLYis EVERYTHING. - Otto Lilienthal [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Krippz Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) If im not mistaken it still holds the climb rate record The current record is held by a Mig-29; that is until the US DOD publicly release the F-22's climb data :music_whistling: Edited March 3, 2010 by Krippz [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 64th "Scorpions" Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 195.201.110.22
mvsgas Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 PoAF F-16 S/N 15133 about to return to service after having dug a trench in a ducth base last year. It suffered a structural check up. Crash: Is no way that the only thing you guys had to do was inspect the airframe. How bad were the first stage blades on that engine? Any damaged to the 341 bulkhead? I can't believe the NLG did not collapse. Did anything get damaged in the cockpit after pilot ejected? No burns by DTA lines? No damaged to the Small canopy? Did the pilot had a brake failure or was there another cause? For example; Electrical, hydraulic, anti-skid failure or just brake failure? To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience.

MVGas, I dunno exactly, AFAIK the structure was what took the longest (Dont know about replacements, just that it took alot of man hours to inspect it). My involvement with the F-16 was structual components for the falcon star/MLU programs (First 3 of 4 "docks" are subcontracted at OGMA where I work), the military are the ones who performed the work. But I guess you are right about the engine surely it was removed but AFAIK we had spares. At least we had several a few years back when I visited the bases engine division. The cockpit I hear did not sustain any significant damage. My main work right now is C-130. Edited March 3, 2010 by Pilotasso .
mvsgas Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 You can learn something every day as an aircraft geek, at least I do. I guess the K-36 ejection seat was tested in the US and US help some of its development, I did not know this.

mvsgas Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Sorry man, just got me curious. At any rate not to derails this to much, not sure if it is news to anyone here. I lived in Holloman for 3 years and never saw this. I guess the track there holds a speed record. check this out. http://www.holloman.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?fsID=6130 1 To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Namenlos Ein Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 http://www.thelocal.se/25330/20100303/ A 41-year-old Swedish man with a forged pilot's licence was arrested in the cockpit of a plane in Amsterdam on Tuesday evening as he prepared to take off for Turkey with 101 passengers on board. The would-be pilot was apprehended in the cockpit of a Boeing 737 at Schiphol Airport just minutes before it was set to leave for Ankara. Expressing relief that his duplicity had come to light, the Swede claimed he had flown for 13 years with a forged licence for companies in the UK, Belgium and Italy, spending a total of 10,000 unlicensed hours in the air. Dutch police said they were able to arrest the 41-year-old on suspicion of holding a fake pilot licence thanks to a tip-off from the Swedish authorities. The Swede, resident in Milan, had once possessed a Commercial Pilot's Licence (CPL) but this had long since expired, Dutch police said. He subsequently forged an Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL), the highest level of aircraft pilot licence and one which enabled him to fly large passenger planes. […]
