Nice, that last one in the first group...yikes. Was that a storm? That's a pretty serious list.

[lesofprimus]

TyTy.... Yea evan the last one was a pretty good storm in the North Atlantic...

 

[evangilder]

I remember flying in C-130s through some big storms, but could never deal with the oceans. I get seasick, but not airsick, go figure. So it was an obvious choice when deciding between the Navy and the AF. With a list that heavy, I would have been in full "vector spew" mode.

I have a pic somewhere of me standing up during one of those awesome lists... Ill see if I can find it later on tonight...

I don't want to alarm anyone, but one of those ships has something wrong with it. I can't quite put my finger on it though...

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Im with you even. I hate ships. I dont get sea sick or anything and never have but I just hate the feeling that the boat could capsize and I am stuck inside of it. I much prefer the soaring through the skies.

 

[lesofprimus]

I much prefer the soaring through the skies.

To those of us that have been shot down before by enemy fire, I whole heartedly disagree!!!!

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Been shot at but never shot down and I would much prefer it to stay that way. Ofcourse I would never be able to tell you unless it actually happened but I think I would get right back into the seat again. I have some people in my unit that have been shot down and several that were in accidents due to mechanical failure and they all still fly today. If you love it you love it and you will never get it out of your blood.

Too True...

I am sure it is the same for the navy boys and there ships.
