Pilotasso Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Well, if you plot a chart expressing how many missiles it takes shoot fighters down, youll see the line climbing as the number of aircraft in the air increases, then it starts falling down again when the aircraft density is so great that a single stick downs 3 or 4 at once :D Thats why most people want smaller airforces ;) .

mvsgas Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 ^^ second place... ;) Incredible that the guy survives with minor injuries. Perfect example of Human Factors in accidents, Everyone involve has done the task so many time their not really paying attention. The guys that went down the intakes, was training a new guys ( we all know how frustrating that can be), is late, everyone is busy and in that mentality to hurry up and get the task done.

Fjordmonkey Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Let me tell ya, it sucks hopping into the intake after a jet lands, it's a little warm in there. Even worse when you do the postflight outside of a hardened shelter, and the bird is butt-first to the wind. Even with the damn mask on, you come out higher than a damn Blackbird.... Some days I really miss working on Vipers *sigh* 1 Regards Fjordmonkey Clustermunitions is just another way of saying that you don't like someone. I used to like people, then people ruined that for me.
mvsgas Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Let me tell ya, it sucks hopping into the intake after a jet lands, it's a little warm in there. You should try jumping on the exhaust, in Phoenix, during a BPO, in the summer...:D up hill...you get the point.
