The former Space Shuttle and combat pilot lends his credibility to Breitling’s timepieces.

I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing a Breitling now that the scumbag gun grabber Mark Kelly has signed on as their pitchman.

[Bigg Red]

Yeah, the same Mark Kelly who uses his brain-damaged wife as a prop in his assaults on the 2nd Amendment.

[wrench]

I never dropped bombs, usually more worried about picking up a reciprocal heading and trying not to overshoot it .

Just as analog engine gauges show position and trend (most are designed to be “center hung” so as to simplify scans, an analog clock shows you where you are graphically in a 1 or 2 minute turn, or a 270 degree turn, for that matter.

I believe the fighter and bomber pilots of the future will be more worried about eye strain and carpel tunnel from their hours at the computer linking them to an aircraft many miles away. And GA flying will only exist in history books.

Who care what this un-American scumbag says? Anyone who stands against the US Constitution like this creep should be shunned.

I had a $39.95 Haverhills Navigator watch purchased from some ad in a magazine that had both analog and digital. It lasted three years, 1000 F/A-18 hours, 38 combat missions and 100+ arrested landings before it went TU.

Now I wear a Brietling and I'm down hops.

1. Go Navy
2. Tx for ur
3. Like I said, gave up watches a little over 3 years ago!!
4. Happy Thanksgiving.

Kelly is a US Merchant Marine Academy grad, and so figures into this only peripherally, but I’ve got a feeling that Army just may get Navy’s Goat this year.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope it’s waterproof in case it accidentally gets exposed to the surf next time his American bulldog mauls a sea lion pup...
