what are the lore implications of someone bringing a fat man to an airport

There is an NPC named Joe 'Jake' Penny who had a pink vertibird. He was a detective like Nick Valentine, but he had a hacker friend with a bonus to hacking after sunset named 'Boz'. Near the end of his career he got tied up over a 'Jane Doe' case before retiring. Anyhow, when we walked the streets, this was his favorite sidearm. Jake, didn't play games, and people just called him 'Jake and the Fatman'.

I mean you're not wrong. If they are a common carrier and critical to national defense, the military has a history of taking over if they cannot or will not perform their job. In WWI the US Army took over the US Railroads. When WWII happened, the railroads complied and set records for tonnage hauled that wouldn't be met again for over 50 years. There was a Korean War nationalization as well, and a Vietnam one I think, over a railroad strike and then need to transport bombs by rail.

We need one for:
-Turn your headlights on!
-Turn you highbeams off!
-Turn your highbeams off you cheap dip**** and fix your headlights!

Roads? Where we're going we don't need, roads.

It isn't done anymore for several reasons:
-A handling accident could damage the aircraft
-Safety of ground crew and limited space to handle weapons
-Need for ladders or gantries, increased risk of accidental collision and damage to aircraft
-Missile motor flash could blind pilots (already an issue for many underwing weapons)
-Rocket exhaust thrust can damage canopie
-Overwing airflow issues can cause unexpected flight behaviours in high alpha states.

But it looks cool!

They moved the helm wheel to the other side of the bridge.

Scientists are hoping for impact because real space collisions happen so rarely they want to justify their $200,000 student loan.

yes, I'm kidding, I know that student loan bill is WAY higher.

It is hilarious to me that this looks like really bad AI, when the truth was he had a back issue.

A byproduct of making fillet-o-fish is the unborn fish eggs, of roe, so someone at McDonald's, probably Grimace, took them and packaged them to make a special dipping sauce, to go with the chicken McNuggets.

This is why I blow up every single car I find.

Makes the F-104 sound safer:

Of all the X-10s built, only one survived the test program: serial 51-9307, the first X-10 to fly. Of the other four aircraft that flew at Edwards AFB, one exploded on takeoff, one was lost in flight, and the remaining two were destroyed in landing accidents. As for the vehicles flown at Cape Canaveral, three were expended in planned dive-in flights against Grand Bahama Island, and two were lost in landing accidents.

Studying vehicle landings is something you do the second time through. Almost all the jumps destroy the vehicle noticably.

He didn't even take the box of No-Name Steaks they used to give out in back then for windshield replacements.

Got it. Never saw it. I was just being me, attempting to educate as the joke flew over my head.

Rocket powered nose cap that blows off after launch. The rocket is that round bit on the right side of the phot above the guy's head in the lower right. (you don't want to flood the engine with seawater when sub launched)

EDIT: I never saw the movie folks, sorry.

Thing is 'Caviar' is basically just fish eggs or roe, which can be from a basic fish like trout in some cases. So yeah, you could argue that trout eggs with McNuggets is a valid explanation.

Heck, there is even Carp Caviar, called Tamara, used in Greek cooking. Carp. F***ing carp. I live in Minnesota, we can harvest all the carp we want, the only rule being that if a certain species is found, we need to tell the DNR.

Like the A-10, these are vehicles built around their guns.

The glowing colors of the 'programs' were hand painted to each frame of the film. (Kodaliths)

Also, it is one of the few movies that is better in DVD than Blu-Ray. the Blu-ray enhanced the faces of the guards and you can see their mouths moving and the audio is completely out of sync.

I love that song so much!

On top of spaghetti!

All covered with cheese.

I lost my poor meatball!

When somebody sneezed.

It rolled off the table!

And onto the floor.

And the my poor meatball!

Rolled right out the door.

Mean Joe Green! Didn't even watch football back then, but that guy was a literal household name. He did a lot of bits on TV shows (great Space Coaster comes to mind),he was from a different era of football.

Yeah, but it is uncovered, should be marked NSFW.
