Fan of all Boston sports. Pitched a no-no. Hit a dinger at Cotuit Kettleers Lowell Park (barely). Flew an F-15C a few thousand times & still somewhat standing.
@thenewarea51 When I flew F-15's, we used Killer, Rage & Savage. Once, when we were deployed to Iceland, their leadership asked us to change them since ATC was offended. I thought "Aren't you guys descended from Vikings?" We asked ATC at the bar and they told us, "No, we LOVE your callsigns!"
Video and ATC from yesterday. The backseater of RAMBO 01 (F-15D 104th FW Massachusetts ANG) accidentally ejected while taxiing back after a alleged incentive flight at Westfield-Barnes Airport, MA
The backseater survived and the runway was shut down. You can see the cockpit canopy laying on top of the F-15 after being jettisoned off.

@Jared_Carrabis Just ran into your prediction of the Sox winning 13 of 17 after getting swept by the Angels. By my math, they've won 14 of 17. Only off by one. Stay hot, Rocket!
@Jared_Carrabis I'm on vacation in Japan with the fam right now. When I wear my sox hat, locals stop me on the street and ask me why Masa's not playing. I pretend I don't speak English.
@Combat_learjet Slow taxi on an int'l flgt = still waiting on takeoff data from dispatch. ATC usually recognizes this and will ask, "Are you going to be ready at the end?"
