So I asked my father to email me a more specific retelling of this story, and he refused, so this is gonna be slightly paraphrased, but in light of the Kobe crash, he talked about one of his pilots doing something stupid during his command tour. His squadron was making a run out to the USNS John Lenthall in the early 90s and one of the pilots (I won't be giving out names here even though all of them have long since retired) decided to express his frustration at the ship not being at flight quarters by buzzing the ship at 150 knots *in a CH-53E*, and doing a zoom climb to ~1000ft before coming back up to land on the pad at the back of the ship. In doing so, he put such a stress on the rotor system that he snapped one of the shock absorbers. The helo landed safely despite "a funny noise," and the 'frustrated' pilot tells the other pilot he knows the chief engineer on the ship and he'll go below decks and ask him what those noises might mean. While he's down below decks, all loving hell breaks loose - along with the remaining shock absorbers as the helo starts to *bounce* on the deck and the springs start rocketing out of the rotor assembly and landing ~500 yards behind the ship in impressive parabolic arcs. All the sailors get wise *real* loving quick and run like hell as the rotors come loose and *thankfully* the other pilot - clued in that a bouncing helicopter making BRRRRRRTTTTWHOOOOSSSH (again, paraphrasing here) noises (the 'whoosh' noise being the sound a shock absorber makes when it's unexpectedly granted its freedom) is probably hosed up in some way, shape, or form and kills the engines. The helo had to be craned off. He recounted this story because he thinks that might've been what happened to Kobe's helicopter - the pilot got spooked, zoom climbed too fast to allow radar to pick him up and tell him where the gently caress he was, broke a shock absorber in doing so, imbalanced his rotor system (people report having heard 'a strange noise'), and in the disorienting environment of pea soup cloud cover, the weightlessness of the apex of the zoom climb (and people probably shouting/screaming behind him as they levitated out of their seats), he lost control and the helo lawn-darted into the ground.

I'm finally watching The Men Who Stare at Goats, which is on netflix. If you don't know anything about it, it is pretty much Caro: the movie. Definitely worth watching. It has a very Coen brothers feel.

I'm not a marine either, but any form of "getting the gently caress out of the marines" sounds like a promotion to me. Yes, even that way.

Memento posted:Better or worse than getting married inside a fast food establishment With a prior enlisted Sergeant officiating, they were married at the gazebo serving as the only smoke pit to which they had access. I lied to my class, telling them it was most Enlisted thing I ever heard of. Somehow, somewhere, there is no doubt that somebody reenlisted at their smoke pit too, though now that I think about it, it's definitely more dignified doing it in front of the PX or Food Court

So this happened right before I PCS'ed in to my AWACS squadron at Elmendorf and was one of the favorite flight deck stories to laugh about for years after, which is how I know it. We had this young captain who was pretty well-liked but kind of an idiot. Not in an unsafe way, just didn't know what he should and shouldn't share with the flight deck crews. He basically was an open book weirdo from Oregon and found his way into a pilot slot. At the time he was a 1LT and a co-pilot. So as the story goes, him and several other guys were out on a TDY getting dinner somewhere when he (how it came up or what prompted him, I don't know) talked a bit about how his sister did some modeling. As they dig into him for more details, he's a little hesitant but decides to plow ahead. Soon they get from him that she modeled on the internet, she was nude, and for a very popular site at the time. That site which if he had never named would've killed any further incidents. Unfortunately he saw no harm in divulging this to several guys with nothing but time on their hands who will never pass up an opportunity to dunk on a fellow aviator. Finally he reveals that she did work for Suicide Girls. They have a good time ripping on him for the remainder of the night. One of the people at that dinner was a major who no one would suspect as a joker. He's a respected pilot and a great officer. Enlisted crewman loved him and so did his peers. Super smart, kept a clean reputation, and was thoroughly a family man enjoying flying out in Alaska. While I wouldn't describe him as quiet, I will say he was one of those "talk isn't cheap" dudes. I genuinely liked flying with him as my aircraft commander. So as this conversation transpires, the major files this information away in his head unbeknownst to anyone else. Now flying squadrons are really tight knit. Between pilots, navs, and flight engineers there's maybe 30 of us in the office. We all know each other pretty drat well. We also fly pretty often with more or less the same crew rosters. This major though didn't fly a whole ton, as he worked a wing job at the time, so his presence on the flight schedule was essentially enough to keep him current and qualified. Fast forward several months. The major and the 1LT have flown together a handful of times since the TDY. No mention of the suicide girls thing came up between them. Now on one sortie, they're together. Despite this, the major continues his sordid work. Mission starts out as any other -- preflight, engine start up, taxi/takeoff. Once they get to established on the orbit, the major chimes up on internal comm. Tells the flight deck he's got a little morale booster. The major pulls out a printed photo from his flight bag with a bit of tape. He sticks that photo over the engine gauges located on the front panel very pleased with himself. Lo and behold its a nude photo of a girl with dyed bright purple hair showing everything. It's very well received by all until a few moments later when the co pilot falls silent and lunges for the picture after making the connection that it's his little sister. The major bats his hand away; the Lt verbally protests quite fiercely. The nav and eng are howling with laughter. After making several more attempts at pulling down the photo, the mic clicks and the major pipes up, "My photo and my jet. Co, you take the radios and enjoy the flight." So for about several hours, the young lt learned a valuable lesson about sharing information with others as he had to take in the view of a sibling's pussy. bloops fucked around with this message at 20:49 on Feb 1, 2020 |

That's not how helicopters work. Also people always report hearing strange noises, people are morons. Dude got disoriented in the clouds, ended up in a dive and smacked into a hillside.
