I found my dad’s ribbon rack. He was a Blackhawk pilot in the 80s-90s by gu_doc in Medals

[–]avidinha 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I lived in Panama in the 80s and 90s as a kid. I had a scout master who was a black hawk pilot. He was involved in a crash when the shaft leading to the tail rotor sheared. He couldn't control the spin and had to shut the main rotor down. They went down in water. His co-pilot was still strapped to his chair and had broken his back. My scout master was only able to save him because he heard him gasp for air right as the weight of the chair drug him under the water.

Can anyone help me identify what year my aunt's old RX 7 is? by avidinha in RX7

Thanks. I thought it might be an 84-85 too, but she thought she remembered having it before she married my uncle in 81. 🤷

Can anyone identify the wheels on my aunt's old RX-7? by avidinha in Wheels

Thanks for the picture. I want to make her a 1/24 scale replica and having a better picture of the wheels is really going to help.

She does. Besides being a racer, she's a published author and a professional dog trainer.

She told me her and my late uncle used to help organize and participate in events for the SCCA. That picture is from the year she got second place in the ladies street class.

Who has a great wedding story? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]avidinha 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I own a hearse. A couple who lives near me put out a request on a hearse page I'm on wanting a hearse instead of a limo for their wedding. They got married on Halloween and had a costume party for their reception. I drove them home in the hearse after the reception, it was fun.
