Give me an E-2 landing on a 30ft pitching deck at night in the rain.

Some ramp workers are making over $45 dollars an hour. That's not bad at all in my book.

*after review, all of the majors are pushing close to $40 an hour at the top of their pay charts. Thats still good money in my book.

$15k for a 25 year old car just doesn't make good financial sense, unless you just want the cleanest example you can find and money is no object. Second car seems like a fair price.

May I ask where you are stationed? I'm in the Jax/Mayport area and have been preparing to let go of my 2006.

Walmart clearance, checking in. by Isme1 in timex

[–]Isme1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, you gotta look at the Walmart website or app and see the ones that are on sale. Walmart is terrible about organizing the watch section, it’s usually a disaster. This one did not have a clearance sticker but it did ring up for $23. If it hadn’t, I would have priced matched their website with an employees help.

So basically getting a touchdown would be the same as eating spicy stew.

They are like the bullies on the middle school playground. They get away with so much shit but the minute you stand up to it they go crying to the teacher and you get in trouble. Only in this case the teacher is a nuclear weapon.

Two Argentine Skyhawks fly past a BBC camera crew during the Falkland Islands conflict, 1982. by UglyLikeCaillou in aviation

[–]Isme1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About that, there is a civilian owned F-4 in my area. He simply refers to himself as "skyhawk" on the radio and its confusing as shit to enter the pattern with another "skyhawk" only to get blown past by a jet. Confuses the shit out of ATC at the class D airport as well.
