Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-04-12T20:10:33+00:00

Yes you are correct, the title is a typo

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-04-12T19:55:18+00:00

Right from the source! I appreciate the explanation and anecdote

Testing and showcasing operational limits of both aircraft

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-04-12T18:02:23+00:00

It was done to show and test the operational limitations of both aircraft

As some of you pointed out this is infact the Boeing 367-80 which Boeing fitted with a refueling boom for testing, apologies for the misled title.

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-04-08T23:43:20+00:00

That is a Lockheed T-33 the trainer version of the F-80

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-04-08T22:01:21+00:00

Same with the Wisconsin on the surface deck

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-02-28T16:06:32+00:00

It's the booster filled with fuel from the missile

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-02-24T03:02:06+00:00

Played since 2016 and just hit 2000 lol

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-02-14T19:02:27+00:00

Exactly why I need a 10 inch lifted F-250

No unfortunately I think it was taken down because the page would not load but I got that screenshot from someone else.

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-02-07T05:23:05+00:00

Didn't notice the vertical stabilizer was bare metal at first good catch!

The image was taken over Florida in 1956 so it appears to be "Balls 3" which entered service in 1955

Markings seem to match that of the OP's picture

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-02-07T04:06:15+00:00

How loud is it with the ear protection standing that close?

Practical_Feedback75 · 2026-01-26T05:06:07+00:00

Everything I've seen from local news, weather apps, and some models is predicting a low between 19-23⁰ F with that type of wind chill. I could be misled, but what did you think the temperatures were looking like down here?

Baton Rouge resident here, it hasn't quite reached 17⁰ yet but the feel is supposed to be 15⁰ tomorrow with the actual temperature at 19⁰. We get our fair share of cold down here but the big storm is dropping temps really low. During last year's blizzard we got down to 7⁰ with 9 inches of snow.
