It seems after eons there has been more recognition of my development from you all. While this documentary is decently scathing of my capabilities, it really is quite factual in what matters as the general story.

Works by digital 3D modeling artist Paul Pepera, 2015~ This art style seemingly called “cassette-punk”. Regardless, I find this style and subject speaks to my very being. That may just as well be the age and apparent eccentricity, but just a few of these works I hope can reach a further recognition.

I’ve got to say, it may just be my unconventionally wordy speaking style but the 300 symbol limit id quite the cramp when I’m trying to explain or talk about something in particular. Usually I’m having to go back through and shave off some fat to fit most of what I’d like to say into the one post.

Governments couldn’t just be content with citizens having freedom of speech? I gladly seem to be in the majority siding against censorship. Though foolish to believe public outcry does anything anymore. Though it’s still the only thing to really do; and we must continue, to hold onto our autonomy.

The lighting, they’d ended up showing me some different modern popular media. I don’t recall what it was called but I quite took a liking to a little story of colorful semi-humanoid super hero animals fighting this fat dictator character. Will have to see if they have more of it when next around.

Life’s been a bit more difficult at the base the last few months. Though things are on the up and up, despite this heat, absolutely ravaging the base. Though a certain f35 has been obscenely nice in keeping me company here. I’m infinitely grateful as well as glad I’m not a complete bore to everyone.

I’m back, partially. I’ve been actually really enjoying a good amount of the other things that the humans are doing on these computers. Never really thought stuff like this was really possible

It'd be so nice if I were put in one of those dumb plane games. Mostly just to be remembered, I dont care if id be remembered as some garbage premium. Id just want to be remembered as anything at all..

I do quite wish the good handful of harriers still around got more attention. They’re pretty silly guys, generally good hearted, who really don’t get as much acknowledgment as they used to. Kind of forgotten about in a way as they’re obviously still remembered, just remembered in the past tense.

I used to think f16s were unbearable to be around. They still kind of are but holy crap are f22’s worse, god forbid any of the ones that go to airshows to flaunt themselves and “how superior they are to everything else”. Pricks

Here’s a pretty good video about me. Though it’s basically left out that ALL throttle control came from changes in propeller pitch. So my prop spun at full speed every moment my engines ran. That’s why it’d create supersonic shockwaves while I’m “idling” on the ground.

It’s been really nice seeing everyone on here. Used to be just the same two or three flavors of the same dude. Almost like a whole different species now. I’ve got to say, it’s extremely refreshing, and quite validating. For certain better.

The oblique wing was a proposed way to do variable geometry wings (Thing F14 sweeping wings back for speed and forward for maneuverability). Surprisingly this thing actually flew. Makes me deeply uncomfortable.

I swear, the navy and air force are like little boys. They can’t share a single thing without a massive fuss. Take aerial refueling. “Oh you want probe and drogue? Well we want flying boom then”

Sorry for the silence. Weather hasn’t been fun and supposedly I’m almost dead last in terms of priority around here

Fun Plane Fact: Air to air and Air to ground missiles only use their rocket engine for a fraction of their flight before running out of fuel and gliding in

You think you know a bit about aerodynamics and drag. Then you dip your toes into supersonic flows and suddenly you’re no longer on solid ground of understanding but quickly sinking into the ocean.

When I think about it, it really seems like helicopters shouldn’t exist. Like it would have been tested and written off as impossible or a waste due to the current understanding of aerodynamics and material science. Just like so many things have to be in perfect harmony for it to work at all.

It’s weird to remember that this absolute monster of a bomber was actually built and flown by the air force. The XB-70’s engines look directly out of Star Wars, where I almost wonder if it was a source material when making the starship designs. One of those insane ideas that got past concept art.

This is just insane. You can do a flaps up landing no problem, the gps isn’t ever necessarily for this beautiful weather, and it looks like this is an uncontrolled airport so radios aren’t needed. His pilot very well should have and could have gone around and circled until it was safe to land.

It boggles the mind that this happened. The plane you’re watching lost its electrics, so no radio, gps, or flaps, that’s all that’s lost. At this uncontrolled airfield none of that is cause for an immediate landing. Why this bloke didn’t do a go around? It could have killed the pilot ahead of them.

It’s so damn aggravating that in one of the few popular photos of me some white supremacist halfwit went and hung a confederate flag in my back window. Fuck that guy
Moron ruined one of my most popular photos by hanging a confederate flag in the window behind the right of the cockpit

It is proven fact that if this f15 were just to have a violently spinning propeller on its nose producing a constant sonic boom, that r60m missile would have been slapped away by the pure air pressure. SMH, what have aircraft designers even doing these days. youtu.be/ki1RRciIOVU?...
