Flight Deck Friday: Pilots - The Movie

March 28th, 2008 by User ImageSteeljawscribe

And now for something a little different.  Nose - when I saw this the first time (it was passed along by an ex-Corsair/Crusader jock I work with) couldn’t help but think of you  

Enjoy your Friday all !  Oh yeah — Spitfires y’all — there be Spitfires in thar…

    Brings to mind dropping a roll of TP out the window of a Citabria and doing reversals to cut the streamer…a long time ago. :cool:

    Cool stuff, that! I had to go to The Wiki, though… coz I thought “square wingtips on a Spit?” Yep… Mk. XIIs had ‘em.

    Warrior:

    Thanks for the comments and stopping by — might want to take a look at the “Flightdeck Fridays Index” page listing in the right hand column - it carries a listing of pretty much all the FF posts thus far. Ditto the Coral Sea/Midway series.

    Oh man, what a great movie! There is a guy who gives P-51 rides down in Key West. Maybe it’s time to make the investment… just so I could do that aileron roll. Okay, it would be cheaper to rent a Citabria up in Homestead.

    I’m retired Air Force, yes I have a great vocabulary and demand air conditioning, and I am puzzled as to why the NAVY pukes have such good Websites. You and Instapinch are hard to beat. I ain’t gunna try.
