Random Griz Aviation Musings

Interesting and plausible explanation! Scary as f*ck.

The more we learn, the more we realize how little we know.
This is an investigation to pay close attention to.

tail separation was too close to the body

Possibility it was struck by the still rotating blades as the MRGB/rotor system departed the airframe.

Pima Air Museum gets an old school Bravo. @mad dog would appreciate...

I didn't watch the whole video but skipped around through it. It's like meeting up with an old friend who is a little older than you. You don't have that much in common anymore, but you remember the good (and "good") times.

It's also crazy that she's sitting there surrounded by a MiG and a F-117.

Fun fact...the person listed as "XO" on that aircraft gave me my first NATOPS check in the Bravo.

Probably a write off for training purposes.

Counts as a training mission.

Some -105 love for @ChuckMK23. I’ve only flown in the back of the -105 but it seems like a great machine to fly. That said, I’ll bet those two engines are thirsty!
