I don't know how you could read this thread on a regular basis, see the kind of stuff that Nebakenezzer posts, and still think that (1) he gets laid or (2) he cares about getting laid

That's not an insult. Just go and browse through the 34 pages' worth of posts in this thread that are his alone, most of them huge megadump effortposts, and ask yourself if this guy has any hesitation at all about his chosen hobby

Ok, there was a good one from a few pages ago but I don't remember what it was now, so I'll wait for the next good idea.

Incidentally, just in case anyone wasn't sure the kind of people involved in aviation, (and trying hard to avoid violating any number of NDAs), I found out/was reminded today that there is an access code for a non essential subsystem on a certain modern airliner that would be instantly recognizable if you grew up with a Nintendo.

Nope, depends on the temperature. Do I need to quote the Concorde post again? It's oddly applicable. But I never thought it would be applicable to this.

I don't know where that is, but at big non-helicopter airports, they seem to follow the regular fixed wing traffic pattern, I suppose to not gently caress with the controllers and other fixed wing aircraft. What's really weird is when you see one with skids taxiing down the taxiway 10 feet off the ground.

At Bagram AFB, they always taxied hovering until they were on the taxiway, even then they usually hovered until they were approaching their hanger/destination.
