Your father flew Panthers in Korea right?

[AG-51_Razor]

Yeah he did - VF-52 though. His birds looked just like these except their side numbers started with a 2.

One of your sky cranes flew by the house today Razor...........  How's the gang doing?.. So far I'm really liking being retired, starting to get paid by everyone that owes me money.  Now let's see if Bozo Joe doesn't make the markets crash in the next few months.............  I'm 30 years day for day so they can't make me go back to the Navy if we have to fight China or Russia or better yet, the Chinese & Russian Lackie Afghanistan.  I got rid of my old desk, move all my computer stuff into the smallest bedroom, got a new gaming desk, Monstertech desk mounts, BlackHog explorer to go along with TMWH, put the extension on the stick.  Looking for a bigger monitor (27" to 32") then a new Video card.................... and then VR... I'll let you know if the wife murdered me or not............... or not... once all that's done I'm looking forward to getting into DCS more and flying the Hornet................ worked on it for so long, I need to fly it like I stole it.

Cheers

Come fly it with us Hog!! Stay away from those Cranes though boy, you'll get helicopter all over you and it is messy!! 

<DOH!!> I meant Hoss!! Come fly with us sometime. Tuesday and Thursdays are training nights and would be perfect for you to drop in and ask a few questions or just fly around. You'd always be more than welcome.

Well, I guess I should of kept my mouth quiet about Bozo Joe and the Ho.......................  About the monitor, I was flying a day or so later after that last post and my monitor died.. I had it at Skeeter's Tail Hook in Modesto, that's how old it was.  So I got an LG 32" UltraGear monitor, I love it, everything looks a lot better.  I still need to get that new video card before I try to start the massive learning curve on the Hornet and Harrier.  I'm still AG-51 at heart and will definitely come looking for some pointers on things this old brain can't get wrapped around.  I won't burden or piss everyone off by trying to fly with you guys until I have a very good understanding of just what the hell I'm doing.  I'll down load some of your training missions and watch a shit ton of youtube videos..

You guys stay healthy and out of trouble...

Hey Hoss, anytime Bud, anytime at all. There are a whole bunch of smart and very talented guys around here that would be happy to help out. 

[AG-51_Hoss]

I've got the F/A-18, F-16, Super Carrier, Syria, and Persian Gulf modules............... now it's study time. 

Would love to see justice done to a Korean War scenario.  My old Panther number in 1946 HSFX AG-51 livery was 119....................
