Anyone have any luck with the ALLMC.com website address?

I think its missing a "c" try this one. http://www.allmcc.com/

TED NUGENT one of my hero's. Very knowlegable and excellent speaker. And one helluva rocker!

Ok Mike just to clarify. I am not trying to offend anyone. Certainly not the memory of anyone lost for sure. I do like your idea to Honor another airframe. But, why not use one that is already moded to represent?

Yah! Don't need no stinking Posers! All joking or grumbling aside, I would like to see any of them preserved for displays. All Herks are special to someone in some way, surely some more than others.

Looks awesome!

Happy Easter to all my Brothers and Sisters in uniform. And a safe return to all serving overseas!

Welcome home Major Miller. and Thanks for representing Wil.

OMG Frauline! That is awesome! Gotta put that on my birthday wish list for sure!!

At our hangar in Denver we have a pair of owls (real) that have chased off all the birds. The only downside to this is I haven't seen a supervisor get bombed by pigeons lately.

I think we all think it. But, Dan has the "nards" to say it........

Excellent answers Fraulein! You and Dan both get the thumbs up for my chuckle of the day.

Awesome! and thank you for the wonderful site!

Hey Dan, lots of these little social groups on face book. I've peeded on a C-130 and lived to tell about it has got to be one of the more... uh.. unique groups? thing is they have a lot of good pics and videos that people share ( like this site) some of them are by invite only but most are open to anybody.

Got a guy at work here bending my ear ... Any body have any info about a herk damaged in wyoming approx 1978 during a tornado.

shoved up against a hangar, wing tip on top of hangar, one on the ground?? Pics would be awesome.

Thanks John

I know that you can put in a suggestion to change something and get the procedure approved wait a year and put in a suggestion to change it back just like it was before and get it approved and get an award for both suggestions! No it wasn't me but I know who did it!

Uh, are you saying "CHANGE" is good??

Wonder what the power steering pump is used for? Looks like the lines go towards the back.

Got to watch one of these in action at an Andrews airshow in 79/80. The sound of those uncorked motors reving made my private parts get all tingly.

I was wondering that too. maybe it has something to do with the vertical drive unit.

( not that tingly thang )

Never jumped chocks but did have one do a 180 on ice. made the seat cushion into a smelly cone shape!

So, did the chrome valve covers and 7mm accel plug wires make the SR-71 start faster?

Dan

Of course! why do ya think they're called ACCEL? (It does look very cool. or bitchin for all you hot rodders )

Fair enough. Good point.....
