Terrified of flying, yet I have a plane to take in 5 days...

[LeSedna]

Max, are you a military pilot ? Of what aircraft ?

 

[Jevil]

Amazing pics you both guys!

 

[MaxStatic]

I'm on my third aircraft now, will be moving back to my second as an instructor come the fall.

This be my current bitch

We carry BIG guns....says nothing about the size of my package either.

My "pen"

Helping out a bird that had an emergency, bringing out Mtx and food/water

She is may be old and green but she flies dirty and mean

My first love...

Token hero shot

Got to give everything a jiggle, especially the spinning parts...it's science stuff or something...

Hypoxia is fun

Other stuff I've seen up close and persononal

All pictures taken by me or my bros except "the office" shot. Been in that sightpicture many times, never had a camera to capture it though.

A movie made by a dude that came before me. Skip to 1:20 if you just want to see "the goods"

Damn Max, what a career. You pilot types always come along and make me regret my choice to go audio over airforce. Great stuff, and all power to you, I'm sure you're doing your country proud and all that

[LeSedna]

God that F15 always seems so big.

Nice pictures !

Nice bit of volcanic ash around today

yeah, my parents were going to go to France but I guess they aren't going there now

 

[Jevil]

Would pay for a ride on that!

The cucumbers below the wings are real or just some inofenssive paintball missiles?

I just understood your messages.

Until now, airspace has been shut down in UK, Ireland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. It hasn't touched the continental europe yet. I've flown today in france without even being noticed it in my france chart.

These look like fuel tanks to me.

There are 2 AA missiles (looking like sidewinders) just next to them too.

If they were paintball missiles, I wouldn't like to be the paintball player right under the attack

 

[MaxStatic]

Yea, fuel tanks are the big guys. On the left wing(to the right) there is an Aim-9 and on the right wing is training munition i.e. no go boom. It's really only there for airstream and what not to my understanding.

Both pics of the 15's are actually C models(single seat) vs the E i.e. Strike Eagle(two seat)
