(in article .com): LOL! I remember many a time when someone in the bar would yell "DEAD BUG". I miss those days too. :) I believe the dead bug drills usually came somewhere between rolling for drinks and the carrier landings. Mind, I remained a strict non-drinker the whole time, so I was sober enough to remember the whole thing. It was kind of unfair, really. If someone came into the club wearing a hat, all I got was another Sprite. But if I forgot... |

It's indeed a fairly little known fact outside the military aviation community that we who flew the "smaller" though somewhat "faster" bits of Plexiglas and aluminum learned all our REAL bad habits from you multi guys!! My grandfather recounted stories of his B-17 crew unlatching their oxygen masks but holding them close to their faces try to smoke cigarettes/breathe on their way to Schweinfurt... -c |

At the NCO's club in Norfolk I bailed out my brother-in-law during his bachelor party when he came in wearing his hat and they expected him to buy a round for all. "It ain't a hat, Chief. It's a cover." That's what my D.I. always said, so it must be true. -c |

If you are one you should make plans for the annual work party at Schafer. Third weekend in July, about the 20th this year. I'll be at Three Forks as well. There's quite a few. I'll start looking for Warriors. I'm at the Three Forks MAA fly-in every year. Flew the Warrior there this past summer (a 15 minute flight from BZN), and flew into Wilsall for the annual breakfast as well. Fun time. Very fun. Since the Warrior was born in 1974 it almost qualifies as an antique aircraft. :) Haven't made it to Schafer yet but it's on my list. This past summer was rather busy for us, but next summer I'll have more time. I'm an MPA member too. --Walt |
