Sorry for the inconvienence

No problem Airborne man!
I am ever thankful you had the stones to dive in and pull this off... I'm still looking at my concept and failing to pull the trigger ~ yet.

That Fw 189 is totally cool!

Thanks bro.

Remember easy squeeze on the trigger..let ur breath out....oh damn..I forgot you were a wingnut ,you probably barely know what end the bullet comes out of

Congrats with the update

Hey,my plane got shot up pretty good once ~ and I was on it. Not that we fired back of course ~ being a cargo bird and all. But we often hauled a bunch of shells and crap. And some serious looking Airborne types. Or maybe that was fear?

Hey Mongo,
Do you remember the scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark where Jones fought the German soldier in Egypt practically on and under a German aircraft... what plane was that? Your inclusion of The Owl somehow reminded me of that scene.

It was a Flying Wing

Here it is:

How are things working w/ the mod,ok?

Airborne.....If the german who was fighting with Jones got chewed up by a propellor it that scene, where's your prop(s), looks a lot like a jet to moi ????? :>)

Yeah you're right Chief...huh....wonder were the prop is

That actually came off a "Raiders" Fan Site

Maybe the model was the original and they modified it a little

They said the plane was actually built for Speilberg by Vickers,however it never flew.

Here's some better shots....the model just didn't have the props on it. (The Flyign Wing shots are at the bottom of the page)

Thx AB & Chief. Raiders of the Lost Ark comes out on blu-ray in 10 days

And the mod is sweet! Too bad for my lady friends...
Meso happy that I want to fly another SOL mission. Remember those? Special Ops Low Level in MOPP 4 gear?

MOPP4 .

I really loved it when they popped an NBC alert when we wear wearing camo ,it would take me weeks to clean that crap outta the inside of my mask and the charcoal lining would ruin that set of BDU's (of course they always popped an alert when it was 110F in the shade)

Never wore any MOPP in an aircraft tho---that most have been really fun ,it was bad enough on the ground,but at least you could open up some doors in the aircraft and get a breeze

See all the wonderfull and horizon expanding experiences that Uncle Sam affoded us

Airborne I also "punched holes in the sky" for Uncle S.....all that experience and I still don't have a degree in "AeroNAUTICAL engineering. Before I started all that stuuf I couldn't spell 'technishun', now I are one. Keep smiling, remember the old military saying..........

"WE'LL MAKE IT UP TO YOU"

PS for the full scale model go to Disney World.........duh!

MOPP4 was indeed hellish I understand training for something like that but if it ever got that bad in a shooting war in Europe, it wouldn't be long before the "balloon went up" and the nukes came down.
It took so long to don the gear that if we needed it in a hurry... toast.
Remember taping on those goofy rubber gloves? And why couldn't we practice using the gear on Jack Frost Mission to Wainwright in Alaska when the average temp was -20 and wind chill of -80? Had to be warmer than the cold weather gear they issued.

BTW, we didn't have to clean jack crap - Life Support / Survival Section did that for us... ya, I know: spoiled Wing Nut jerks

Hey Chief! I was a 11470 in the Force.

I heard that too Chief: "We'll make it up to you." Sure. Didn't believe it then and still waiting; however, the VA has been good to me. Their budgets continue to be slashed and the patient load is rapidly expanding as us vets get older, but they do what they can.

Disney World has that Raiders plane?

Yeah it used to be part of "raiders of the lost ark", stunt show, aircraft was used in finale, suspect you'll find it was made only for the film and now the show. I suspect it never existed as in the movie. Just an old mans opinion. Don't use VA have Medicare and TRI care for life, I was a LIFER. Qualified aerial gunner, radio op, radar op, and aircrewman on ASW, AEW and Blimps. Nice variety.

Mongo's mod is awesome! The camo scheme on the captured equipment is mondo. Mongo's Mondo Mod.

Chief the Lifer! Been awhile since I heard that word. "Slicks" and other young airmen used that word in a negative sense "man, he's a Lifer..." but they were young and jaded by the sour~heads. I would have stayed in but for a looming assignment to MAC HQ in Illinois plus it was difficult attending college when I was on missions two-thirds of most months.

Sounds like you were PCS or TDY in some interesting and remote places. Were you ever on a Spectre or Spooky? One of my friends transitioned from our C-141 squadron to some "special" C-130 outfit in Germany. He had similar duties to what you described above.

Please continue, but I would appreciate a little less jargon in order to understand.
I already know that I was a bunny... an AA bunny. Mongo already explained that to me.
From what I understand, naughtybalrog, belonged to the aircraft crew which would carry the airborne types.
