You mean dzus fasteners, grunt? [;)]
Fade to Black…
You know your a flyboy if…
At least 60% of what is mentioned on the other page is true.[:D]
Do they all yell ‘Eject, Eject, Eject!’ when confused?
Remember the WWII recruitment policy for fighter jocks was 17 and 18 year olds. The idea being after 19 you have too much sense.
Of course, willingly climbing into a “Ronson” seems suspect as well…Sorry Sherman dudes, couldn’t resist[;)]
I think “Airhead” sounds better than “Flyboy”.
Gotta have fun with this, although my bro is a pilot, I’ve solo’d an uncle died in a B-17 --and I worked in aviation for seven years (was that a bad luck thing?)…
You know you’re a flyboy if:
You pull back on your steering wheel to avoid rear ending the car in front of you… (true story… doesn’t work[:0]… no, it wasn’t me.)
You need a mechanic to start your ‘vehicle’ for you, buckle you in, then have somebody else do your maintenance after you’ve flown.
A field excersize means black and white TV (with a VCR) and no imported beer at the club.
If a bug smear on your windscreen before you fly sends you into orbit.
You love the smell of JP8… as long as it’s not on you.
You wear a little white or baby blue scarf around your neck and think it looks cool, rather than effeminate.
You’re not a pilot if:
You think Maverick on Top Gun did his job the right way. (Nyuck Nyuck Nyuck! Did you see me buzz the tower?? Ah-hyuck!)

[;)][;)][:D]
That’s what I was thinking.
bloody landlubbers!
you take a rifle scope with you on commercial flightts to pretend your a bombardier. (personally I don’t think youd get on a flight if they found a scope in your carry-on…)
Like your hood MIG, I do have a softspot for the JUG.
LOL…dzus guys!
Dan
…you are hip to the fact that air superiority is the king of the battle field. [:p][:D]
[(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D]
guys you have surpassed yourselves!!!
Grunt!!!..Grunt!!! that’s an insult!!! Treadhead or DATs thank you. I was a Crew Chief on C-141s in the early 80’s. Now I ride M-1s! give me the dark side anytime.
You know your a flyboy if you paint your house aluminium.
You know if your a flyboy if:
You memerized top gun starting battle-credits
You know if you are a wanna-be flyboy if:
You you are a reservist who memerized top gun starting battle-credits
You know if your a flyboy if you put a IFF Transponder in you ford pinto
If:
You go to the ‘ready room’ everymorning to shave/shower
You wear a flight suit over your suit when you go to a buissiness meeting that requires flying in a plane
You hang out at the air force recruiters office in the nearby mall
You designate the driver seat occupant the pilot
the front passenger seat the co-pilot/navigator
the middle rear the bombadier, and the two rear window seats
the waist gunners-oh yeah-the illeagal immigrant clutching desperately to the chassis of your car is in the “ball” turret
You built an f-4 phantom from the junk in your backyard.
it works
You call stray BB gun pellets “Flack” and when you see an aircraft carrier, on tv, you try to land your car on it-much to the TV’s dismay.
You watch in horror as in the move airplane, everyone gets sick, you think you are the good guy who saves everyone.
You have an irrational fear of cars
You bought on of those personal helicopters and you fly to work everyday
You build large scale electric airplanes, yet you don’t fly them for fun perfering to use your planes to spy on your neighbor
You have a $15000 miniature jet F-15C Eagle
At local fields where model airplanes are being flown, you use mini sidewinders to shoot do the boogies
Maybe on American flights… How bad a shot can you be when the furthest possible clear target is going to be 5-10 metres away?
“Watch out, he’s got a scope. He could stare at us from any distance…”
HAHA…TEEHEE… you track ter…ks…need to stick your heads out of that littleswivel box you mounted on the lawn tractor and see whats about to fall on you… does one of you guys really have a " wind vane and anemometer" in your yard
Air support? See it in three minutes. Artillery? See it in fifty five seconds.
Artillery IS and has always has been, the KING of battle! When it’s ‘danger close’ and has to be dropped on target, call in the big guns.
13B All the way![8D]
Ron.
PS A dzus fastener was invented so that even a pilot could open the access panel to check the oil.
Tanker101… well put!
Ron
You know you are a flyboy if wrapping the cockpit in thin plates of metal qualifies your craft as being ‘armored’.
You know you are a flyboy if… for you a 30mm gun counts as a BIG gun.
You know you are a flyboy if… being able to take off from a grassy meadow counts as ‘good off-road performance’ and makes your vehicle ‘rugged’.
You taxi down the highway with the white line between your feet! [8D]
