Makes me sad that I'm color blind and never even had a chance to apply for flight school.

Bummer.

Pictures like this make me want to go flying again, but I need more money...

False. Only F-14s can ride that highway.

From my personal pics of my last deployment...following the Lincoln around for a bit. Plane guard joys!

I love how the crew casually stand around as the hornet takes off.

This was when I was on the USS Decatur (DDG 73). I'm retired now, to the USS Backyard, under the command of COMCOLDSIXPAC. ;)

HA! Very nice!

I worked for Lockheed Martin, doing systems engineering on AEGIS for about seven years. Lot of very cool kit on the DDGs.

Not even F-18s? Those are pretty neat too.

Bro, did you even see the movie?

Ari Schwartz: Dark Lord of the Snark > For Sweden 11/27/2013 at 14:21

Sure. But the now that the F-14 is retired, someone's gotta ride the highway. How will we have the inevitable remake if not with F-18s?

Also you had better watch it. Your mouth is writing a check that the rest of your comment account can't cash. You're talking to a guy who has seen more awesomely bad movies than most people would even admit to knowing about.

The cafeteria at college was playing this song when I was getting my lunch. Quite a random moment.

Here is the music video followed by the

obligatory 80's Volleyball match. Because nothing screams the 80's like manly pilots shirtless-ly competing against each other.

Jets are so cool.
My various electronic computational devices are all full of pics of them.
I wish I was 13 again when the dream of being a TopGun still seemed realistic.

It's never too late to fly. Even a small plane brings tremendous joy.

I know.
My beautiful wife bought me an introductory flying lesson for my birthday last year.
Yeah, she's awesome.
But unfortunately lessons and flight hours are waaaaay out of our budget at the moment.
(We run our own small business, and as such any spare money goes straight back into the business)
But, one day....
In the mean time I amuse myself with R/C planes. (Cheap ones)
