    Keep 'em coming!



    Side note: I went back to the flight physician and tried the eye chart again. I read it perfectly and got my First Class medical. Sure am glad I wasted $85 on an eye exam to tell me I don't actually need glasses. If I learned anything from this, it's not to spend all day looking at a computer screen before an eye exam! Now I have a good excuse to not do my homework :D

    I avoided glasses for YEARS by learning how to cheat the eye test... :D That's 23 years of driving, 5 years of an ATC flight physical in the Army and 12 years of Class II medicals...

    But then the wife said she wouldn't fly with me if I didn't have glasses... oh well :) :laugh:

    Yes. The CRJs can't go fast enough at higher temps to get airborne. Bad juju.

    All our heavy airlift flight ops in the Middle East happened at night for this reason. B-1s had to do afterburner takeoffs in high temps to get up with a full load. Note: just because it's dark don't mean it ain't hot.

    So glad I don't have to go back to that shithole. Al Udeid is the world's largest American POW camp.
