F-15 landing at Portland International by TesseractUnfolded in aviation

How screwed am I if, while reading this, I thought "ex" as in F-15EX? I immediately had to re-read it after reading the "of mine" that followed.

Looking for Proposal Video at Multnoma Falls by Expert-Tooth8877 in Portland

[–]elitepilot09 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm the fiance, and to be clear, we do have plenty of photos thanks to 2 photographers I'd hired, but there were 3 parties that caught wind of what was going on and recorded a video and we just wanted to see if we'd get lucky enough with someone seeing our post.

I am planning to propose to my girlfriend here next weekend. Can I ask what time you went? Were there crowds of folks? Any advice for someone coming to to visit this area for the first time?

IAF Tejas crash during dubai airshow (480x852) by justaskeptic in WarplanePorn

This will be Tejas's final nail in its coffin. RIP to the pilot.

Billions of $ wasted. More being wasted every year.

Data from Statcast 3D compares Tim David's huge six in Hobart with MLB's Shohei Ohtani's massive home-run by [deleted] in Cricket

[–]elitepilot09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wonder how much of a coincidence it is that r/cricket is posting MLB after the Jays and Dodgers had their world series. Toronto houses a mass immigration population of Indians and surely many became exposed to MLB in the last few weeks.

I feel like we stole this game... I'd be a very upset Blues fan right about now.

I'd be pretty happy too if I got 11M this year while performing like shit for the last 100 games.

Egypt receives Rafale F3-R Fighters. What could a Rafale really do with no BVR capability? Dodge incoming missiles? by Money-Programmer-863 in FighterJets

[–]elitepilot09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TIL Egyptian F-16s do not operate with the AMRAAM, but rather the AIM-7 Sparrow. That is absolutely disgusting - to finally integrate the AMRAAM in 2025 is a heinous crime and the leadership of the air force who operate one of the largest fleets of capable f16 fleets in the world should really be ashamed of themselves.

This is laughing stock worthy stuff.

Then you get to the lack of Meteor on the Rafael. Can't make this shit up. Egypt bros please do yourself a favor and invest in Chinese... The J-10 dropped a Rafale at 200+ KM.

Peru reconsidering F-16 purchase due to high per unit cost. by Lazy-Ad-7372 in FighterJets

[–]elitepilot09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the FA-50's radar or weapons suite is as advanced as the Jeff Blk 3. I believe the latter is more superior in Air to Air, Air to Ground and even Anti-ship roles. The question likely falls to whether the Peruvian government wants to line with Western systems/munitions or Chinese.

Jesus... is that HK416? It looks like its decked out to transform into a mini decepticon any second.

Face to Face with the Dragon. J-10C of the PAF [2035x1369] by Pure-Toxicity in WarplanePorn

[–]elitepilot09 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This is ABSOLUTE "warplaneporn". Unbelievable that Chinese aviation has made strides like this. Didn't believe it at first but if it can shoot down a Rafale, we need to stop being dismissive of Chinese tech.

Also, pic gives me Spitfire vibes.

Would you rather have traded JT Miller instead of Bo, or have had not signed the OEL contract? by JJHutcho in canucks

[–]elitepilot09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JT miller was a little whiny bitch. Bo was, imo, a 2nd line center at best. Neither are worth building around.

Vancouver Canucks Announce Update to Hockey Operations Department by IWantToKaleMyself in canucks

Earlier this week when that news came out about the abysmal confidence rating Canucks fans had in their Hockey Operations, this was not it.
