I don't know about the rest of the Airwarriors crew, but I'd be interested in seeing it. Check this link out:

Thanks ... I'll check it out and see if they can help me.

The flight included palm trees passing "overhead" :) as the beach was crossed, a Caballo foolishly attempting to escape while sprinting across some rice paddies :), and more than a couple of Joe's going over the side :) as their Banca boat(s) disappear beneath the nose of the aircraft.

Oh, yeah ... and being shot at by a Brit destroyer (scheduled) off western Luzon using practice "frag" AAA rounds. Boom, boom, boom ... lots of airburst puffs. Looked like a war movie .... :)

What, sitting on the radar cabinet and watching the PPC show you how it was done? :D

j/k Got a chuckle out of your post. As with all posts on here from the Jet and Helo guys, there really ain't much to ad from the P3 perspective, I mean, who the fvck wants to hear "There I was 8 hours into a 13 hour flight doing racetracks 1000 miles from nowhere, <insert bland statement> .... the ******* IP kept asking me the position of the backup valve ..... the greasy spoon special was making itself "known" and I was wondering if I was going to break the seal .... blah blah blah" RIVETING I TELL YOU, RIVETING!! um, not....

I didn't ... I was too busy flying. My B/N did. You never can trust them ..... :D

He also took a couple of 8mm films during ALPHA Strikes ... edge of the envelope flying, formation roll-in's, flying low--really low, SAM trails through the formation, A-7 shot down, CAT's and TRAPS. Lot's of stupid, rule bending there, too. You probably wouldn't like it.

Grumman liked it, however, and bought it to use as a motivational film. I guess it depends upon who's busting who's rules .... ???

Who could know .... :)

A4s - did you know a peer A-6 driver last name Spencer, firstname probably Charles or Charlie?
