The world is a fine place and worth fighting for and I hate very much to leave it. -Ernest Hemingway

I love aviation R&D. Not because it advances technology, but because it gives us the goofiest looking aircraft ever built

Tree was not in the flight plan

You can see the individual 25mm bullets and their supersonic shock cones.

What do you get when you bolt seven C-123 landing lights onto a metal frame and hang them off the side of a UH-1H?

You get a Huey Firefly.

Built for less than $1,000, this improvised night fighting system was one of the USArmy's earliest attempts to take the fight to the VC after dark. Some Firefly helicopters even carried a .50 cal. The concept was brilliantly simple. Flood the jungle with an enormous wall of light, spot the target, then let the .50 do the rest 💡💥

In 1987, 18-year-old Mathias Rust flew a rented Cessna through the USSR's entire air defence network and landed beside Red Square, humiliating the Soviet military at the height of the Cold War. West German diplomacy ensured he served his sentence in an ordinary prison in Moscow rather than a Gulag.

Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

Buy the cheap version first. If it breaks, that means you use that one enough to justify the expensive version. You’ll be surprised how long the cheap ones last you.

[TomcatJunkie🏴‍☠️ @TomcatJunkie]

Fun fact. The F-111 killed more tanks in Gulf War 1 than the A-10 did.

Who’s the real “tank killer”?

The best discovery of our road trip has been a musician called Ella Langley. We had never heard of her before, but after hearing her on pretty much every country radio station, we’ve become big fans. She’s basically the soundtrack of our trip.

Have we considered just giving possums peptides and cocaine to solve the tick problem?

“do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6-7

God is very intentional. Nothing about your life is random. Not the delays, not the detours, not even the waiting. He knows exactly what He's doing. Please learn to trust him more this year.

POV: After surviving the hardest chapter of your life, you realize that God was always there and He never left you.

but by making good shoes, because God is interested in good craftsmanship.”
