You must have done something right to get an incentive ride during an airshow.

Wing guy, asked Radio if he would mind if I rode along, take pics. I wanted to see how it went to so if I end up flying one but then again, only lead needs to know how as the rest of em just hang on.

Back in my day, the CO could authorize a non-pilot/enlisted to fly in the back seat of a 2-seat jet, provided they were physiologically qualified (for jets, altitude chamber & "OMIAS" card for ejection seat trainer). If an incident/accident happened to occur, there would be no need to justify the presence of the authorized non-pilot passenger to the mishap board. Justifying other actions which may have contributed to an incident/mishap, is another matter.

BzB, I think what Helolumpy was getting at is that if the mission is to give the incentive ride, it's not a big deal (CO depending, of course). But if the mission is to do something else other than just the incentive ride, it's not authorized...at least in the helo community.

Now if they're in the back, somewhat different story.

First time I've ever noticed what strange landing gear the T-45 has, especially the mains.

Kind of remind me of F-18 landing gear...just going off looks.

its almost like they both get slammed into flight decks with some level of regularity...

I almost said as much, but I figured I should get back to coloring. Which I will continue to do now.

Section go's from parallels?

That's what I was thinking as well.

Are those dents in the nose? Seems like they would want to knock them out before they go airshowing.
