CBenson89 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Yeah I’m sorry I’ll take the word of a pilot over a mechanic. Pilots are in vaults all day looking at missions specs loadouts and tactics they know more about what the jets can and can’t do than mechanics. They can also look at all old tactics and missions and see if there was a different SOP in the past.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Just a FYI, Crew Chiefs that have been in the USAF for a career - will know more than anyone else on the flightline about the technicalities of the airframe. Especially when it comes to wiring and the engineering of what can and cannot be approved. They own the jet, and ultimately... they can tell Aircrew that they are not flying their aircraft that day. Because the responsibility and safety is in their hands. Edited June 29, 2021 by Wing 5 1 www.v303rdFighterGroup.com | v303 FG Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking 1-1 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) No need to ask your brother, since ED already spoke to people "that know". They did their job, they made a decision.

CBenson89 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Great good for them. I’ll take a weapons school graduate over a crew chief any day of the week for what a viper can and cannot do tactically and what loads they carry and employ.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Funny thing is, MX makes the calls whether this loadout can be supported. Whether the jet is "FMC" and puts the final red X signature on whichever mod is installed, is safe and doable IAW with engineers. Aircrew does none of that, and the countless times I have had to tell a pilot, "No sir, that is not possible." Or "Sir, you are not flying my jet today due to *insert safety issue here*" is endless. You literally have no idea how the flightline works, so best to stay within your lane instead of disrespecting people that do this as a profession. (Especially the SME above Panther - who is assigned to crewing the USAF F16). Weapons troops here would also know much more about the tech data... I will tag, @Scrape, maybe he has insight with this.

CBenson89 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Yeah I could care less I’ll ask a couple of pilots and see what they say. But I’m glad you know how a flight line works good for you.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
