On at least one other forum I am on if you posted that garbage with no proof to back it up (at least to the moderators) you'd be banned.
Could we (US) build the F-14 again in an emergency...

Some of the MiG-21s didn't either. MiG-21P and I believe its derivatives as well.
Your actual name please? I dated the daughter of one of the head dudes in F-22 development, and while there's currently some bad blood between her and her parents at the moment, I should be able to confirm whether or not you actually were one of the test pilots. Lack of response will be taken as proof that you're a poser. |

I was trained on all types of aircraft. Before I ever joined the military, I had rotary wing and non-commercial jet ratings.
I have no intention of giving anyone on any message board my real name. You have no right to ask because I would not ask that of you. Until you asked that question, I was willing to take you at face value. Now, I won't. By the way, I was not a corporate jock. I was not on the engineering team of either plane. Did the USSR use the MiG-21P, or was it an export-only aircraft? As I recall (and I could be wrong), it was made solely for export. Nope. I've only had to punch out of one plane in my life, and that was American-made. I am able to do the Cobra and Tail-Slide maneuvers, though. I have made friends in lots of strange places. I am a fairly competent pilot with over 21,000 total hours in over 50 different airframes. The MiG-25 wasn't really a fighter. It was an over-the-top interceptor intended to attack inbound bombers. You don't need guns for that. When was the Yak-28 a fighter? As I recall it was a light bomber/recon bird.
I will NEVER give up!!

Dude, you are the one posting outrageous crap. Either provide proof of your claims or get the hell off these boards.

You flew both? How'd you pull that one off?
I hadnt realized that PlayStation had the YF-23 as an option also. Sounds like a Sea-Story if I ever heard one, and I have heard tons.... GUNNER

Maybe he flew them on Ace Combat 4, maybe 5?

Why not? You certainly seem to enjoy bragging about the airframes you've flown and the number of pilots who've flown both the YF-22 and YF-23 is assuredly small. 'Course, I'm starting to think that troll is a better descriptor than poser. If you're worried about your personal security, feel free to simply PM your name to me, the only person I'll be passing it on is to the aforementioned head dude. |

Can I say the word "bullshit" on these forums? Because now would be an appropriate time.
Either you start providing relevant details as requested, or own up that you're a liar and cease and desist. One or the other. We do have the "right" to ask about this, because you don't have the "right" to be believed and taken seriously until you do. Any legit Navy vet who comes on these boards (and none have ever claimed anything nearly as outrageous as the stuff you posted) quickly builds a rapport because they use the right kind of language and also provide enough detail as to their own bona fides that they can be taken at face value. You have failed to do any of that. 21,000 flight-hours in 50 types, you supposedly served in the 80's, which would put you at least in your mid-to-late 40's AND (according to your profile) you live in Tokyo and really love anime? Fersure! Let's start with the obvious, which should not compromise your secret identity too much. Which FFG were you deployed in the Gulf with, and which deployment? What embarked helo squadron were you supposedly attached to? Which F-14 and F/A-18 squadrons did you fly with? When? And so on? |

In US Naval Aviation, you screen into a specific training pipeline after primary flight training, and that's your community for the rest of your career.
I've known a few aviators in my day, but I've never heard of anyone going from rotary-wing to strike jets or vice versa. It simply doesn't
happen.
Again, I'm throwing the bullshit flag on this one. Show some evidence, or go away. It doesn't have to be your name; just something that could be
verified. Your log book would have the specific dates of every flight you made. Tell us when you flew the YF-22 and YF-23, and I'm quite sure we could
find out whether the same pilot was on both of those flights.

For example, a bombing mission with a target 350 nautical miles from the boat would be planned for one hour. In reality, climb is slower, descent is faster. But, the Phantom with a bomb load was no speedster. Even clean we did not cruise above mach 1, that would just use too much fuel. |

Can we (US) build a F-14 in an Emeggency . . .
Yes! Go to any hobby shop and you can buy a kit and have it together in a few hours!!! |

Not any heavy lift transports. Biggest plane I've flown is my Gulfstream IV.
I will NEVER give up!!

Your G-IV | ||

Posts: 1504 (24-Jun-2008 13:02:18) |
Is that included in the original purchase of the game or do you have to download the G-IV as an after market add on? If it's aftermarket, I'm sure
you're as frustrated as I am in that, I mean really, just include more planes when the game is released?
My favourite is to fly into the old Hong Kong airport (Kai Tak??). By the way, since you seem to know everything, who did kill Jimmy Hoffa? That one just baffles me! |

21000 hours is 875 days or 2.4 years.
Why do i somehow doubt you've flown that many hours? 
Of course doubting that makes your whole story sound like cr@p. |

Oh, we're counting video games? Well in that case, I'm a fast-attack captain, I've commanded a CVBG, I was in WWII on a Type VII U-boat, AND
I've commanded the Russian Northern Fleet. And in between all that, I flew a couple dozen types of aircraft in combat. So there.

Hey! Did I tell you guys about that one time I shot down a DeHavilland Vampire while flying a Gotha Go229? Now that's a plane I tell you.
Largest plane you've flown is the Gulfstream IV? Strange that someone who has flown the F-22, YF-23, F-14, and Su-37 failed to realize that all those are larger and heavier than a Gulfstream... |

I made good money on the stock market in the 1980s and got the plane at a DEA auction about 17-18 years ago for $600,000.
The only way you could make a G450 cost over $12 million is to add lots of 24kt gold and expensive woods to the furniture. Perhaps, you've mistaken the G550/650 for what I have. The TO weight of a combat plane depends largely on weapons load. A G450 has maxTOW of 78,000lbs. It's also longer and has a larger wingspan.
I will NEVER give up!!

Is that so? What's the serial number and N-number? Don't worry, you won't be revealing private information, there's no G-450 registered under your name. If you do have one, you set up a company for it to be registered under. |
