Re: 2018 Joint Base Charleston Air and Space Expo

Any word on the USAF Thunderbirds appearance? I’m planning on attending either way but just curious as to why they’re waiting till the last minute to make a decision. No announcement yet. People are going crazy on Facebook about this. Doesn’t help that there are a bunch of trolls saying that they a...

Re: 2018 USAF Thunderbirds Schedule

Sounds like they are preparing to fly with 5 jets, maybe all year. I suppose they might add a #4 and train them up while performing with 5 in the mdan time, but that seems like an odd way to handle it. I honestly expected them to bring Krajicek back as he's only been off the team since January 26th...

Re: Thunderbird #4 Killed In F-16 Crash at Creech AFB 4-4-18

Indeed, and a nice album of photos here; http://afthunderbirds.com/site/2018/04/17/maj-stephen-cajun-del-bagno-laid-to-rest-at-funeral-service/ That first picture was very moving to me, the remaining 5 TB delta pilots walking in Vic without Cajun in slot. http://afthunderbirds.com/site/wp-content/up...

Re: F-16 crash at Nellis AFB 4-4-18

Sad news for sure, thoughts with the families and teammates. RIP As far as the season goes, honestly I wouldn't be surprised if either the team themselves, the AF issues an extended duration safety stand-down. wrecking 3 $28 Million jets in less than 3 years isn't good (Regardless of the causes), ad...

Re: USAF Pave Hawk Crash in Iraq

Sad update today, Aim High Airman! RIP.

Also keep the crew of -2 in your thoughts, it has to be terrible to see, and arrive on scene of your brothers' accident.

USAF Pave Hawk Crash in Iraq

It appears a USAF HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopter has crashed in Western Iraq, no word on the crew other than that there were reportedly 7 pob. The AF's HH-60Gs are designed for CSAR, and are in Iraq supporting coalition forces fighting ISIS in Syria. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2018/03/15/us-hh...

Re: 2018 Blue Angels Soundtrack

Here’s what I got. With all the crowd noise and jet noise plus the announcer it’s hard to hear the track sometimes. Google helped me with these.

Re: 2018 Blue Angels Soundtrack

Yeah I'm sure it will come in the next few weeks, the same maneuvers seem to always be the hard ones - any videos make it difficult to hear with the jet noise, so you have to recognize the songs from a few seconds of video footage.

Re: Spotting-KCLT Charlotte Douglas Intl Airport

Great shots! Interesting to see both 29000 and 90004 in the same place.
