Does anyone have a resource of what future planes the navy is developing? Wikipedia is the only thing I can find out the subject.. and some description of a plane by Boeing (but I couldn't find an official source on it).

In addition to "fielding" fc2spyguy, the Navy has plans through 2020. This signed document lays out "the vision". Not as detailed as the USMC Aviation Plan, but should suffice to answer your question. There are glossy hard copies laying around the Pentagon if you ever get up that way.

Guess the excitement of first T-34C ride was too much to handle...that will teach him to fall asleep when HJ is about with camera....

Production line of T-34Cs and Mids being cycled in and out of cockpit all day long

You guys made them all wear oxygen? How mean...

Nice pics, though. I remember getting to do that years ago as a Mid. Awesome experience at the time.

Not me. They were just seeking shelter near where I was working that day. The garbage bags were more demeaning to my mind!

WTF is with the plastic bags? Puke precaution?

That's like the "spin & puke" at API. Those fvcktards adamantly insisted I take a garbage bag in with me. I assured them I've never been motion-sick in my life but they said that the spin&puke was a "new experience" and I might need it.

To this day I've never puked from or even BEEN motion-sick in my life.
