    F-16 pilot flies back to base with half a wing missing

    I just re-read the title of this thread. What an amazing feat. The pilot flies back to base with half a wing missing. Wouldn't it be the plane that had the missing wing, and the pilot flew the damaged plane back??? Or do those NG Pilots come with wings nowadays??? Just sayin' Carry on.

    my m35a2 keeps dying

    Check your FUEL FILTERS per the TMs. You may have ALGAE in your tank and lines and filter(s) which clogs the filters at high flow rates. The in-tank pump is a low flow rate compared to the fuel flow at higher engine RPM and therefore more sucking of the ALGAE "wafers" against the filter...

    WHAT?!? $756.32 Won EVERYTHING! (M35A2)

    Well, our conversation(s) have led to a road trip this morning to preview the potential purchase. Prayerfully, we are patiently negotiating a favorable purchase. Though some of the original information about this truck was confused with another vehicle in the VFD's inventory, we are now...

    What do you do for seeing behind you?

    SITUATIONAL AWARENESS ! When I was taught to drive I was in and on the crowded streets and highways of New Jersey. In such congestion you need to be aware of everything, all the time. I was instructed to check my mirrors often - like every few seconds. I have never let down my guard...

    WHAT?!? $756.32 Won EVERYTHING! (M35A2)

    Our motorpool may be pregnant! We have been looking for a tractor (at a better than excellent price preferred) and recently we were led to an M818 about 100 miles from here that a VFD has as surplus. It's only two years out of an Army rebuild from what they claim, and they have made no...

    Motor nearly cutting out while driving.

    Your symptoms are identical to what we had a few months ago. As soon as the primary fuel filter canister was opened, the problem was obvious. ALGAE ! ! ! Changed the one filter, added SEA FOAM to the fuel tank and SHAZAM ! Problem solved! Fortunately, the in-tank algae was minimal, but the...
