I think they still fly for NOAA or NASA at least they used to. Coolest aircraft stuff I viewed outside of regular carrier flights ops which in and of itself is quite the thing to witness was when a B-52 and a B-1B Lancer flew low level right above the water past our carrier. Thats something you don't see every day, even in the Navy!
Seeing a B-1B go practically vertical, and then going inverted straight through a cloud (practically decimating it in the process) gave me a hardon.

As much as I like all the pics, I see that A-10 and pop wood.

The Warthog is one of my favorites! A good buddy of mine flew them in Alaska and I remember waiting on the end of the runway as the first ones flew in from the Fairchild-Republic factory in the early 80s. I asked my friend who flew them up there if he was ever worried about flying such a slow aircraft and he responded, "When you are in an F-15 flying Mach 2 you really don't feel it. However, at sea level going 300 knots and then yanking and banking it is like riding a roller coaster. He said, "I can out turn any fighter and if I can point my 30MM cannon at him, he is toast!" Tragically, he died in a training crash flying a low level. It really is a remarkable aircraft. As of today though, the F-22 Raptor is undeniably the most awesome aircraft built by man. It can do things no other aircraft in the world can do. Simply makes your jaw drop when you watch it go through its paces.

All of these are actually me doing the AR... hope there are no YouTube know-it-alls in here LOL! The first video is the ever sexy F-22 Raptor somewhere near Bakersfield, CA. The second video is an F-16C being refueled over Iraq... its a bit longer but this is how long an AR take for them realtime. The last video is a B-52. You can see how hairy it can get when its not perfectly calm outside during refueling...

I'm glad there are military people from different branches that can make fun of each other without it turning into a **** sizing competition
