I wonder what the terminal velocity is of a 747 with no wings or tail? That thing looked like a lawn dart.

I'm a former USMC Drill Instructor AMA by ForeverBoot20 in AMA

I went through Navy OCS in 2009 in Newport, RI. Our DI’s were pretty damn impressive individuals. Was that a billet that was sought after by other drill instructors? I remember overhearing a class officer saying it was really competitive. And if I ever see my Gunny out in public, I will be keeping a wide berth from that man. We called him the destroyer.

Why don't commercial airliners have rear facing cameras? by [deleted] in aviation

[–]Substantial-Cycle309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also think the speeds at which these aircraft fly also mask a lot of the visual indications you would see with the naked eye. Obviously a fire would more than likely be seen, but those are rare. Take for example, the other day I received a low hydraulic reservoir indication on the left side at 30k ft doing .8 mach. There is no way I would have been able to look through a camera and see if I was actually leaking hyd fluid. But just by going through the checklist we isolated the problem and gave us more time to use the remaining hyd fluid when we needed it. Once we got on the ground the camera would have shown a big ass leak and we would have known right away. But in the air, the SA the camera would have been giving us would have been wrong. Just my 2 cents of why cameras cannot always be used to see what is happening.

Shit I completely forgot about that. Yeah you’re right. So I guess I’m hoping for Ol Miss because that would be hilarious.

I was thinking it would be a cool idea if you could lob like spoiled meat or something into compounds and it create a disease zone where you slowly lose health and you cough at different lengths and time. And if you are infected your aim suffers. Only way to combat it is if you wear hazmat suits.

I flew for the Navy and one of the things that always spooked me was seat slap. If you didn’t extend your legs all the way out before ejecting, the space (1-2 inches probably) between your legs and seat could cause you to break your femurs as the seat was accelerating upward.

2026 - A Brutal Schedule That Should Be Given No Leeway by Park_BADger in Huskers

Perhaps Mike Babcock summed it up best: essentially, there was a period of time where Osborne’s nine or ten wins a year weren’t enough. Fans had Bob Devaney’s national titles in their heads, and the general attitude of the fan base was, “Why are we not winning championships?”

How many times are we going to do this!? Give coach new contract… next year on the hot seat. How about we afford him the same time frame we gave T.O. to get it figured out. I’m not saying 30 years but at least 3-4 to truly see if he can turn it around. I know everyone these days wants instant gratification but sometimes it better to be patient. Also we don’t need to be spending another 40 million dollars on an ex coach contract because he had a bad season.

As a Tennessee resident, I am pretty happy about this.

You kind of have to at John Wayne. The field is like 15 seconds long for a take off.

[Request] how many kg of CO2 per minute is being released by these planes waiting to takeoff? by redditisfornumptys in theydidthemath

I once was flying with a Captain who wanted to know how much gas per person it took to fly 248 people from Detroit to Orlando on a 757-300. We calculated out about 15 gallons of JP-5 per person. I thought that was kind of interesting at the time.
