*lives just a few miles from NAS Oceana* I LOVE it here. But dammit they're phasing out the F14s...I'm gonna miss seeing them streak across the sky. People ask me about jet noise and it's really not that bad. It's comforting to hear the roars (even if my 4 yr old son just HAS to point out every jet and helicopter he sees)

"Now this message is for America's most famous athletes:

Someday you may be invited to fly in the back-seat of one of your country's most powerful fighter jets. Many of you already have ... John Elway, John Stockton, Tiger Woods to name a few. If you get this opportunity, let me urge you, with the greatest sincerity...

Move to Guam.

Change your name.

Fake your own death!

Whatever you do ...

Do Not Go!!!

Sounds like good advice. I puke on the "Roundup" at the fair. No way would I do something as assinine as riding in one of these.

Brings back some memories. I few years back, I got a call to go ride shotgun with a friend in a rented Grob Bavarian for some aerobatics.

It was just before my first big incident of heart problems. And, I was hung over. Badly.

Being somewhat crazy to begin with, I agreed to go. I managed not to 'paint the cockpit', but I wasn't feeling too hot when we landed, either. We pulled a little over 4 Gs. Unngghh-Ooompff.

Below is an article written by Rick Reilly of Sports Illustrated. He details his experiences when given the opportunity to fly in a F-14 Tomcat. If you aren't laughing out loud by the time you get to "Milk Duds," your sense of humor is broken.

I realized I was the first person in history to throw down.

FrogDad came in to see what I was laughing about - had tears rolling down my face. A couple of minutes later, so did he.

I'm an uneasy flier, so this hits especially close to home. Thanks much!

"Bananas," he said.
"For the potassium?" I asked.
"No," Biff said, "because they taste about the same coming up as they do going down."

First ROFL occurred here. :)

When I lived in Annapolis, MD I had a friend who had been in the same unit as Richard Bong. He once told be a story sort of like this one. This guy's claim to fame was that between he and Bong, together shot down 42 Jap aircraft. Check the history, yep Bong got 41 and this guy claimed he got the other one. Any how on to the story.

Remember the photograph of Bong with some good looking female movie star standing beside a P38? With everybody all smiles. Well that is the before picture. They had a two seat version that Bong took her up in and showed her a few things a P38 could do that the designers never thought of. When they landed, she was screaming, beating Bong on the head with both fist, and by the way had peed in her pants. Bong just couldn't understand why she was so upset and was mumbling, "What did I do, what did I do".

Don't think so. As I said I got it in an email and it is attributed to a Sports Caster in the posting.
