December 7th by Gordon
To those that suffered and those that fought back, this is our day to remember their sacrifices. In the post- 9/11 era, 'Remember Pearl Harbor' has been replaced, as was the previous war-cry, "Remember the Maine!" but the sacrifices and glory earned on that long ago Day of Infamy guarantee that...

Fav CAG story (was US Navy nose cone colours?) by Gordon
Chimp Head? I'm dying over here. I remember one "fly off from hell" - one of the Turkeys was hard down the whole cruise. No wait, that was nearly ALL of them... At any rate, one of them had become a picked over shell, nearly picked clean by maint piranhas, with the assumption that it would be...

Aw ****s and Bravo Zulus by Gordon
Everyone knows that one wipes out a career full of attaboys. What is your favorite non-fatal "aw ****" story? I thought we could also make a thread and tell about the best flying each of us encountered. On Ike in 1980, we had Whales. Either one or two of the massive things, but they were...

Loss rates for A-7s in the fleet by Gordon
I had an interesting conversation with a pair of SLUF pilots today - an AF type and a Navy guy. I chimed in with my 2 cents, that my connection with the stubby little jets was that I used to fish their pilots out of the sea when they went from "single engine" to "no engine". Both pouted a bit at...

Q: anyone know of a sea-rescue of an airman by the USS North Dakota? by Gordon[_2_]
I have a photo of a whale boat returning to the ship, titled "USS North Dakota whale boat rescuing balloon man." It is not a motor whaleboat, its rowed by hand - but there isn't any other details. Always intrigued by such references - who was this 'balloon man'?
