As most of you know I am an Avionics tech. For the past 8 months I have been gunning to get engine run qualified on our GIV model aircraft. Most people don't like this because it is a huge responsibility for no extra money. Anyway, During my "Engine runs training" class if we finish early we get some sim time. I'm not talking about some shithole 5 monitor set up in your moms basement. I'm talking about realistic full motion ball tickeling excitement. A simulator that is so realistic that you can get certified to fly a plane with this simulator without actually touching the real thing. After passing the normal bullshit and some emergency procedures crap I got to do a full take off, fly for a bit than shoot the approach at Aspin,Co. That was such a rush that I couldn't wait to get into a real High power engine run. Well. today was the day. We taxied out to the run up area. Performed a half assed breef on what we were going to do"I obviously ignored it". When I started the engines I was kind of stoked. Not alot but a little. Than came the time to bring the engines up to power. As I grabbed the throttles and slowly inched them to Max EPR"<-- Thats how we rate maximum power you niggers" you could feel the plane lurch forward and have this powerful shake going on. For the first minute I was tweaking going over my emergency procedures in my head over and over." What if I jump the chocks and start skidding? Fire? Fan blade failuer?" Than it hit me...... The one thing all the other engine run guys told me would happen. As I sat there at full power I thought" All I have to do now is set the flaps and release the brakes and I could be flying this fuker easily." Even though in todays state of fuked up hightened security I would get shot down the urge was so fucking strong. I think I will get my pilots license now. The simulator was cool but after sitting in the real thing I'm still rubbing my chub.

ahhhh.....somebody after my true passion....
I have a friend in Dallas who was an aviation tech who let me fly those real honest-to-goodness simulators. I crashed the first time into the Tandy Towers out of Dallas. This was with NO instruction whatsoever. *sigh* Anyway, I figured everything out well enough to take off and land without killing myself at JFK sym airport at night.
Last summer I started biatch work at the local airport (FWN) in exchange for lessons in a C-172. I managed to solo before I wrecked my knee, needed surgery and could not fly for several months. Now, the doc gave me the "okay" to resume lessons, but I don't have the ca$h or time to work at the airport for more lessons. I've got to figure that out yet....
The coolest thing about working the ramp was that I made friends with all sorts of avionics and especially aerobatic pilots. I have flown a BT-13 (Texan trainer) as well as a Stearman.
Take me as your co-pilot and I will fly while you lube yorself. Does that qualify you as a member of the mile-high club? If I can bring azron, then we can join the mile high club while you are at the controls....
Congradulations!

Always wanted to fly but I'm stuck with fearing FAA regulations on vision, I was once told if they couldn't correct it I would be considered legally blind. Closest I've come is being first in a Black Hawk underneath 20 other guys on a night insertion mission flying nap of earth blackout conditions. Not a fun ride when you can feel treetops through the skin of the chpper and the LZ is "hot".

| Sexual Asspussy | This is awesome.
This is the first pornsite I've found in years that I'd actually advertise to swarmers. When you first load it up, it looks just like every crappy scam site out there, except that it's real. It's huge, it's updated constantly, there's no spam, no popups, and no bullshit -- and it's completely free. When you sign up through that link above and respond to the confirmation email, I make a bit of loose change.
See what other swarmers have to say about it. People love this place, so I feel fine about sending you there and am confident you will enjoy boners.
