  1. So why dont you instead debate the post and not the poster then? A lot of people like to bash John but then never answer any of his questions of the topic at hand. I will ask it again. Is microstamping a good idea or not? If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  2. Thats what makes it such a shame. It's seems a real simple mistake but I was not there and do not know all of the data. Hopefully the co-pilot pulls through and can shed some light onto the NTSB. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  3. Damn! We need to go have a beer. We think alike in this area. That would kick ass. Dont know what I would do with it, but it kicks ass! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  4. There saying it is going to probably be a CAT 1. Hell I heard most Floridians dont even cancel ther BBQ's for that. Shoudlnt get to bad down there. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  5. NTSB just said that the info that they have gathered says they tried to takeoff from runway 26. (The short one).This is a damn shame. It is standard to give a readback to ATC after instructions were received. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  6. I have been waitting for his reply. It is a damn shame if this comes down to be pilot error. If anybody ever see's these RJ's on takeoff you can see that they are ground hogs. At 3,500ft those people didnt have a chance. NTSB are supposed to have a briefing soon. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  7. I was scared! We were getting low and the camera man wouldnt get away. I was scared I tell you! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  8. Found the skyface If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  9. Here is my avatar and still looking for my skyface If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  10. (CBS/AP) Pilots of the Comair commuter jet that crashed with 50 people aboard near Lexington, Ky., used the wrong runway, CBS News has learned. Forty-nine of the 50 people aboard were killed. The one survivor, a crewmember, was reported in critical condition. U.S. officials who requested anonymity told CBS News Correspondent Bob Orr that the pilots apparently used a runway that was too short to accommodate the takeoff of the jet. The officials said the pilots had made "a critical and fatal mistake." The plane, Comair Flight 5191, a CRJ-200 regional jet with 47 passengers and three crew members, crashed at 6:07 a.m. Sunday after taking off for Atlanta, said Kathleen Bergen, a spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration. The plane was largely intact afterward, but there was a fire following the impact, police said. A little after 6 a.m., flight controllers gave the pilots clearance to take off from runway 22 and the pilots acknowledged the controllers with a "roger," Orr reports. However, it appears the pilots took off from runway 26, which is only half the size of the 7,000 foot runway 22. Sources tell Orr the radar tape and debris from the crash site suggest the plane never got airborne, that instead it went off the end of the runway and through a retaining area before settling into the crash site where it seems a significant post-crash fire erupted. Orr adds that two flights took off from the correct runway (22) just prior to the Comair flight's departure. Comair President Don Bornhorst confirmed the number of passengers, but gave very few details of the incident during a press conference Sunday morning. He urged victims' relatives to call (800) 801-0088 for more information. Quote This is a terrible accident! I have a fellow team member who was in ky visiting his mother this weekend who works in Atlanta. I felt the wave of ease when I called his cell phone and he actually answered it. Terrible shame for everyone on board. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  11. Great pic's Bob. I enjoyed looking at them all weekend at SF. Great photo job. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  12. Oh man! This sucks. I saw Maynard 4 times in concert. The last was about a year down here in Baton Rouge. He put on one hell of a show and was an amazing horn player. He was one of the greats and he will be missed. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  13. If you ever wanted to pump up the power even more I have an Yamaha R6 engine in the corner of my garage that I would sell you really cheap if you really wanted to whoop some ass! Thats 600CC crotch rocket engine baby! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  14. Some kick ass nose art would be cool! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  15. For storage it's fairly cheap. But for moving cross country it's kind high in price. It's a great idea though. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  16. Never! It's a bonding thing for the guys. We get to drink, argue, and have a bad time but in the end when it's over we can look back on it and laugh! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  17. I never used them for long haul. That was funny! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  18. The price I got from PODS was not what I would call cheap. They were damn near the same price to hire somebody to move it. Might have to check with them again. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  19. That sounds like a plan. I have been throwing stuff out for the last 4 days. I cannot believe how much stuff you can collect in the years. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  20. I wish I had the pull with the new job to negotiate that. But I dont. It's one of those jobs that a lot of people want and they have the power in that department. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  21. I think I read the same article. It maybe a local guy to come load your stuff but then they take it to the compnay who is going to haul it cross country. Kinda sneaky but I understand why those big movers do it. I have always gone with Penske Truck Rental. This will be my 5th long haul move with there trucks and never had 1 problem with them. The oldest truck I ever had was 2 years old with 26,000 miles on it. Still a new truck. Plus they haul ass on the highway. 70-75mph the entire way.

  22. In Michigan I was helping a friend move into his new house and we had a U-haul. I was driving in the middle of the busiest intersection in town and the engine blew. The rod snapped and punched a hole in the side of the engine block. Had to wait for a wrecker to tow the damn thing then we had to unload to blown truck into another piece of junk U-haul gave us in replacement. We could have done it quicker if we would have just used our pickups If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  23. I dont any direction my friend. I have this under complete control. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  24. Better get about 50 vanilla tree air fresheners if you get POPS. He has some serious gas and I dont mean the kind that helps your car run. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
  25. Lets say for the cause it's cross country. I once moved from one apt on the 1st floor to the 3rd and it cost me $450 to have to guys pack it up and move everything. I sat there and drank beer all day watching those guys drag all my stuff to the 3rd floor. Best $450 ever spent! If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
