Thanks much. I ask, because I did see a movie once that involved a double engine failure due to an (indicated) fire. Remember the "Great Santini" where they flew F-4's?

This video is all of the major flying scenes in the film. Skip to 05.54 for the scene in question.

I’ve never heard of that kind of failure. We had an F4 fly home after all the engine hangers broke and they were laying on the engine bay doors (over G during a night range bomb run). I flew an aircraft from Moffet to Salt Lake with fuel pouring on the engines with no problems (navy over pressurized and broke all the seals on the internal tanks).

There were other types of fires we had but they were not really engine related. Like I said earlier, shot up aircraft would burn but you could fly them a while before you had to give them back to the taxpayers.

There was no such thing as backshop then. You went out, fixed the jet, brought the part back to the shop, put it on the mockup, replaced the $5 part and turned it back into supply.
At least you knew who to blame if it didn't work on the next jet you put that part on.

GPU starting was probably a probably a pain for the ground crews (I flew them) but it always worked great. From a ground perspective, I think all maintenance was a pain in the ass and we highly respected and appreciated all the crews.

As far as in the air, the J79 was one of the toughest engines ever made. I could go from idle to military power in under a second, in jest FOD, and compressor stall with no indication in the cockpit (when pushed way beyond it design airflow limits) and no damage. The only way you’d get a double engine failure is if you ran it out of fuel or got both engines shot up. It was an incredible aircraft.

Kinda strange seeing a Weasel without a HARM and a 184 pod.
Was that an Edwards jet?
We may have ended up with that jet in Boise, I know we had 265 on the ramp.

not familiar withe the WW tail flash… Guard unit?

Tail flash was unit designation, not role/mission (i.e. Wild Weasel)

edit: found it. 35th FW out of Misawa, Japan (PACAF)
 
We had but didn’t carry the 119 / 184 every flight. Trying to save the dat to day abuse to them. The planes configured for the weasel training missions would carry the shrikes and then later on the HARMs. The ones scheduled for Air to Air or Air to Ground would carry racks. That was out of George AFB before they closed it down.

Yeah, I meant George, not Edwards. We got our tails from George and the PI.

All Weasel aircraft (at least George) were WW. At that time the 35th TFW was also based at George. They had a different tail flash but I can’t remember what it was.

The Weasel wing was the 37th TFW. The 37th moved to Nellis when they closed George in 1990 and became the new designation of the F-117 wing.

Ours had the WW with the Idaho tail flash above it. They came off when we deployed.

Agreed. The only issue is anyone stacking small bales by hand has horses. I never met a horse woman who wasn’t 100% psychotic. Just my very personal and anecdotal experience…

I could tolerate a little horse woman psychosis in a strong good looking woman, of course she would have to put up with my gun whoring ways too. I bet that woman is stronger than more than half the guys that frequent this site. Not many men or women can toss two bales at a time, and especially look good doing it.

No argument she looks good. They usually do. Strong legs and toned core is pretty much a defining feature. Lots of fun, but likely too much stabby-stabby liability even for @clcustom1911

"Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I have been with a loose girl."
The priest asks, "Is that you, little Joey Pagano?"
"Yes, Father, it is."
"And who was the girl you were with?"
"I can't tell you, Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation."
"Well, Joey, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?"
"I cannot say."
"Was it Teresa Mazzarelli?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Nina Capelli?"
"I'm sorry, but I cannot name her."
"Was it Cathy Piriano?"
"My lips are sealed."
"Was it Rosa DiAngelo, then?"
"Please, Father! I cannot tell you."
The priest sighs in frustration. "You're very tight lipped, and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and behave yourself."
Joey walks back to his pew, and his friend Franco slides over and whispers, "What'd you get?"

They only women I have met who are too bat shit crazy for me are the women body builders in hard core gyms. Some of them are "Fatal Attraction" crazy. Female gymnasts, dancers, horse chicks, and women truck drivers are the perfect mix of crazy and strong.

I never met a female power lifter that wasn't as nice as the day is long. There is a huge difference between a power lifter and a body builder. They lift for entirely different reasons. The body builders have a bad case of "look at me" syndrome.

That's an interesting meet she was lifting in. In all of the meets I have been to I never saw someone telling the lifter when they got low enough on a squat. When I am going for a max squat I doubt I would even hear someone that was trying to talk to me during the lift. The only exterior influence I remember is the judge in front of me making the hand motion to start the squat and after it is done telling me to rack the weight. Once the lift starts I am completely focused on form and loading my glutes and hams at the bottom to start the drive up.

As a beer guy, and yes, the kind of beer guy who could tell you not only the type of hops but also the region it was from; I must tell you. Even I, didn't notice how cold that beer was.

I have met only one that wasn’t psychotic, but even she had her issues. Most will blow through money like shit through a goose. And really you’re never more important than their horse obsession.

Its ok to be with a horse girl as long as you know your place. She has one horse, you are number two. She has five horses, you are number six. Girls throwing hay are hot, but when you are number six, she stands there and points, and YOU are the one throwing hay. Dont ask me how i know. Ok, it's cause right now I'm number three, tied with a couple stinking ass goats.
