UN Cemetery Busan, South Korea. Notice on the tombstone the number of those personnel killed and see who bore the brunt of that action. The wall had the name of every US soldier, sailor, airman killed in the war.

I wish I had a T-45

I think if you're rich enough, the older Hawks are now on the market. I'd buy one but I'd put a more powerful motor in it as we are way underpowered and seemingly can't take a tiny bird without it foding out the motor.
 
Bunk, what was up with all the T45's at crp Friday (12/02)? I'm used to seeing 1 or 2 on the south ramp, but not 6.
 
Here are a couple of shots from my first time in a R22 helicopter. Flying in that egg beater did wonders for my headcold. It was here I made sure again that my seatbelt was secure

The door was held on with a paperclip cotter pin!

My son's first airplane ride. Southwest LAX-DEN-IAD. At one point I had an empty Lear Jet for him but plans change quickly in aviation.

Statue of Admiral Yi which was an admiral undefeated in battle, something like 33-0 and kept Korea free from Japanese rule, at least at the time. He invented the turtle ship which gave him his greatest victory though he died in the battle. These pics are from Chinhae where the only US Naval Base in Korea is located.

You mean 33-1? Altough I guess his last battle could have been won without him however.
