    Piasecki Aircraft and helicopters

    His designs led directly to the CH-46 and CH-47. Both of these aircraft have been operational since the early 60`s, with the CH-47 still being produced today. While not aesthetically pleasing, the twin rotor design allows all of the power to be used for lift. With a traditional helicopter, part...

    Think this story is true??????

    It seems a little contrived with the plane crashing, body thrown clear.....bullet to the head. You never know though.

    Nick names used for popular a/c

    No doubt lol......actually, we would throw out a "shithook" every now and then if an aircraft was having a lot of problems. The only name I remember that we had for Blackhawks, was Crash Hawks. This was in the early 80`s when the aircraft was fairly new and was having problems with the stabilator.

    In addition to that, it`s illegal to claim any military award, decoration, medal, etc that has not been earned.

    Another Wannabe Hero

    I agree with you 100%. It takes a truly pathetic individual to steal someone else`s blood, sweat, and tears. To exploit other men`s sacrifices and attempt to make them your own is nothing but cowardly. How such a person is even able to look at themself in the mirror is beyond me.

    Eagles sign Michael Vick!

    Stallworth should have received MUCH more jail time, no doubt. The difference between the 2 cases, however, is intention. For the people here that drink alcohol (me included), I`d say the majority of you have driven when you shouldn`t have. If you`ve driven drunk, and haven`t caused an...

    Eagles sign Michael Vick!

    It`s more than dogfighting....it`s hanging, electrocuting, and drowning them. I was a life long Eagles fan before this....go Giants!
