..I was in 114 when the CAT/AG dude got sucked in the port intake of a VA-95 A-6E, he looked like he had seen the great beyond after that. Here's the vid, I'm sure everyone's seen it but just in case...

One of the carriers I was on had that vid on a loop. Pretty impressive. I don't know if it is true or not but someone said his belt buckle snagged up on something and was all that save him.

I was OOD on the TR when it happened. It was the chin strap on his cranial.
 
Couldn't get any closer, but caught a shot of this yesterday...

One of my favorites. First time back since 2002 after it was restored from a crash. Father died and son brought it back.

I didn't take a pic, but the Yellow Peril T-6B and the CG Centennial T-34C (flown in by a guy I know) were at Lakeland this last weekend. They both looked great.
 
Somebody sent this to me today. I figure it is photoshopped and a fraud. Anybody know the story?
Or have I been Rip Van Winkle and missed it all? :sleep_125

Navy PAO recce strikes again!!

That airplane might have served as a Navy trainer before changing hands to the present owner, but those are Coast Guard colors on the old gal now. The main differences are the tail feathers but the dead giveaway is a couple key words on the aft fuselage- admittedly they are obscured by the horizontal stab in this picture. Here is another angle (care of flickr and google):

At least caption got the "biplane" part right... :rolleyes:
