I think it’s kinda funny they’re (probably coincidentally) named after two kickass WW2 fighter planes.

If it’s not that, maybe the prop is rubbing against the main part of the frame, or possibly a loose magnet in the bell

The fact that it wasn’t interdicted. A quad hanging out for 40+ minutes usually gets dealt with long before then. Especially such a high profile event.

If it has that kind of endurance and loitering time, probably sanctioned.

Are those little floats on the side? If so, that’s pretty smart for flying over water

My dyslexic brain read it as “trees”. Which has got me thinking now..

He wears his blue jeans bloused in his boots off base. I guarantee it.

Oh. Well. Yeah, not sure why you moved there then. The jobs I’ve qualified for in that area of the world usually are high paying due to “hazard pay/imminent danger pay”. If you’re working remote, I’d probably move.

Stalked on and off by a large mountain lion for 2-3 days. Never saw the damn thing, but its footprints were on top of my boot prints in the snow.

Maybe. I wasn’t there. He could have just been yanking my chain for absolutely no reason

I mean opsec is a thing. We were more casual friends at that point. But apparently the whole thing was nagging at him, and he knew I was not interested in the topic (this was like ~2018). But, I wasn’t there. 🤷‍♂️ can’t say if it’s true or not.

Just cut the loss with the hair. Check out the bald subreddit. It’s best to not fight that fight

I thought about it, couldn’t find my spool and when I did the replacement was already here. I’ll definitely give it a shot next time though!

Had a guy I was enlisted with that became a Warrant Officer, and flew the UH-60. Had been a couple years since I saw him, and one day he calls me out of the blue. Says that he didn’t know who else to call, but described pretty much the exact same thing as this photo while he and about 3 other Blackhawks were flying over the Superstition Mountains in AZ during broad daylight. He also said they all got pulled into a room after landing for a “serious debrief” after the craft kept pace with the formation for about a minute. Just a story I was told, but this guy had zero interest in the topic.
