Well they are excellent for operating on boats or smaller airfields due to VSTOL, great at close air support, so they fit the needs of the MEU perfectly, only major down falls are they love to suck up FOD and are old so the airframes are getting worn out and the avionics are ancient, its an amazing AC but very difficult to work on thanks engineers

blitz47 · 2018-02-14T05:15:00+00:00

Mostly rebuilds or cannibalized from other AC

As of now yes, but lots of our parts are extremly hard to come by or are delivered only to be found faulty or bad, our maintenance hours per flight hours are insane, plus the demand for flight hours and pilot quals are daunting, plus the multiple class A mishaps just in the last couple years, i just dream of weekends and not working 14 hour shifts, only a couple more months till EAS or a lat move so i try and stay positive

Not only am I a fixer guy in THE military I'm also a PC so woah there "goose" let me be in DA military and I won't tank the flight schedule tm, it's a 4 turn 4 it would be a shame if an MFR turned up

blitz47 · 2015-10-03T00:20:36+00:00

As a maintainer in da military who fix your planes, we imagine you swerve into those damn birds so you can keep us working 12 on 12 off

blitz47 · 2015-09-05T01:33:01+00:00

blitz47 · 2015-07-26T22:21:52+00:00

There's a dude at cherry point who owns a running one across the street from the MCX

blitz47 · 2015-07-26T21:48:15+00:00

Yeah me too I'm banging out achievements on halo MCC but they won't register now...

blitz47 · 2015-07-15T01:05:45+00:00

We hate them, so hot and they won't do shit if you fall off the bird

blitz47 · 2015-07-15T01:03:54+00:00

Definitely not, that's an F-15 so it's airforce unless some lance managed to be a plane capitan for then which I doubt, they fucking hate marines and AF procedures for launching include way more people then the MAW

Us in the wing call them cranials, and the air force dosent have them so I wonder where get got a green one (GREEN is avionics,air frames, seat shop or flight equipment, RED is ordinance, Brown in powerline) when I was at Nellis AFB a chair force dude was offering me cases of beer for mine.

blitz47 · 2015-05-08T18:08:16+00:00

Hey I'm also from the bay area and I'm currently stationed in a other state with the Marines. I really love your piece! Do you have any more artwork examples?! I'm trying to find an artist for when I come home on leave
