The C17 has a stick? I never knew that. I guess every time I've been in one at an airshow it's only been the cargo bay.

Also, I don't think there are any 141s flying (at least not CONUS) anymore.

Huh... I'm clearly behind the times. Like... way behind. Apparently, the last eight C-141s were officially retired in 2006.

It has definitely been a long while since I've seen an airworthy DC-9-15 in person.

How about the -50

Hehe, that puke green color in DC-9 flight decks reminds me of Soviet aircraft like the Tupolev TU-154, etc.

I have heard several stories about the maneuvering awesomeness of the C-17. I'm told that it flies like a 4-engine fighter.

Erik1010 where is that? Hasn't gotten much below 50 in the NE yet

That is not something to complain about! Since it no longer snows a significant amount, or enough to sustain ride-able conditions without tons of ice making I'd prefer it just stay warm.

If winter wants to step its game up and actually be consistently cold and snowy, I am in.

A Basin.
Montezuma, CO.

I welcome the cold wx. However, I went from -02c at A Basin to 20c in Denver. So, you'd have the best of both worlds Matt13C.

Landing with the sun rising behind the mountains in Alaska was the great way to end a long day (night).

Let me know if you end up here again, and off base.

That guy at Elmendorf sure thought so.

Negative, neither of us. Probably Snoopy 2, if you are in Texas as your profile says

Yeah, I remember unloading her at 0200 then sitting in the cockpit talking to the pilots.

Yeah, that's definitely Snoopy-2. I'm not sure what they're doing this weekend. I'm on Snoopy-1, and we're covering the Clemson game tomorrow at noon.

Can someone help a flickr challenged member upload a photo? All I keep getting when trying to upload the photo is a red box where the pic should be. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
