Too precious.
F16 vs. C-130
A C-130 was lumbering along when a cocky F-16 flashed by.
The jet jockey decided to show off.
The fighter jock told the C-130 pilot, 'watch this!' and promptly went into
a barrel roll followed by a steep climb. He then finished with a sonic boom
as he broke the sound barrier. The F-16 pilot
asked the C-130 pilot what he thought of that?
The C-130 pilot said, 'That was impressive, but watch this!'
The C-130 droned along for about 5 minutes and then the C-130 pilot came
back on and said: 'What did you think of that?'
Puzzled, the F-16 pilot asked, 'What the heck did you do?'
The C-130 pilot chuckled. 'I stood up, stretched my legs, walked to the
back, took a leak, then got a cup of coffee and a cinnamon roll.'
When you are young & foolish - speed & flash may seem a good thing !!!
When you get older & smarter - comfort & dull is not such a bad thing!!!
Us older folks understand this one.

This is very scary, this was sent to me by a very good friend of mine
and he does not send things that are not true.I do not know the man that
wrote this letter... Thought all of you would like to read it.M.L.
One week ago, I went to Ohio on business and to see my father. On
Tuesday, November the 17th, I returned home. If you read the papers the
18th you may have seen a blurb where a AirTran flight was cancelled from
Atlanta to Houston due to a man who refused to get off of his cell phone
before takeoff. It was on Fox.
This was NOT what happened.
I was in 1st class coming home. 11 Muslim men got on the plane in full
attire. 2 sat in 1st class and the rest peppered themselves throughout
the plane all the way to the back. As the plane taxied to the runway
the stewardesses gave the safety spiel we are all so familiar with. At
that time, one of the men got on his cell and called one of his
companions in the back and proceeded to talk on the phone in Arabic very
loudly and very aggressively. This took the 1st stewardess out of the
picture for she repeatedly told the man that cell phones were not
permitted at the time. He ignored her as if she was not there.
The 2nd man who answered the phone did the same and this took out the
2nd stewardess. In the back of the plane at this time, 2 younger
Muslims, one in the back, isle, and one in front of him, window, began
to show footage of a porno they had taped the night before, and were
very loud about it. Now..they are only permitted to do this prior to
Jihad. If a Muslim man goes into a strip club, he has to view the woman
via mirror with his back to her. (don't ask me..I don't make the rules,
but I've studied) The 3rd stewardess informed them that they were not
to have electronic devices on at this time. To which one of the men
said "shut up infidel dog!" She went to take the camcorder and he began
to scream in her face in Arabic. At that exact moment, all 11 of them
got up and started to walk the cabin. This is where I had had enough!
I got up and started to the back where I heard a voice behind me from
another Texan twice my size say "I got your back." I grabbed the man
who had been on the phone by the arm and said "you WILL go sit down or
you Will be thrown from this plane!" As I "led" him around me to take
his seat, the fellow Texan grabbed him by the back of his neck and his
waist and headed out with him. I then grabbed the 2nd man and said,
"You WILL do the same!" He protested but adrenaline was flowing now and
he was going to go. As I escorted him forward the plane doors open and
3 TSA agents and 4 police officers entered. Me and my new Texan friend
were told to cease and desist for they had this under control. I was
happy to oblige actually. There was some commotion in the back, but
within moments, all 11 were escorted off the plane. They then unloaded
their luggage.
We talked about the occurrence and were in disbelief that it had happen,
when suddenly, the door open again and on walked all 11!! Stone faced,
eyes front and robotic (the only way I can describe it). The stewardess
from the back had been in tears and when she saw this, she was having
NONE of it! Being that I was up front, I heard and saw the whole
ordeal. She told the TSA agent there was NO WAY she was staying on the
plane with these men. The agent told her they had searched them and
were going to go through their luggage with a fine tooth comb and that
they were allowed to proceed to Houston . The captain and co-captain
came out and told the agent "we and our crew will not fly this plane!"
After a word or two, the entire crew, luggage in tow, left the plane. 5
minutes later, the cabin door opened again and a whole new crew walked
on.
Again...this is where I had had enough!!! I got up and asked "What the
hell is going on!?!?" I was told to take my seat. They were sorry for
the delay and I would be home shortly. I said "I'm getting off this
plane". The stewardess sternly told me that she could not allow me to
get off. (now I'm mad!) I said "I am a grown man who bought this
ticket, who's time is mine with a family at home and I am going through
that door, or I'm going through that door with you under my arm!! But I
am going through that door!!" And I heard a voice behind me say "so am
I". Then everyone behind us started to get up and say the same. Within
2 minutes, I was walking off that plane where I was met with more agents
who asked me to write a statement. I had 5 hours to kill at this point
so why the hell not. Due to the amount of people who got off that
flight, it was cancelled. I was supposed to be in Houston at 6pm. I
got here at 12:30am.
Look up the date. Flight 297 Atlanta to Houston .
If this wasn't a dry run, I don't know what one is. They wanted to see
how TSA would handle it, how the crew would handle it, and how the
passengers would handle it.
I'm telling this to you because I want you to know..
The threat is real. I saw it with my own eyes..

I don't normally post here, but I think we need to set the record straight.
Please read this http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/flight297.asp in
reference to David Owens post. Don't believe everything you hear on the
internet - scratch that - don't believe *anything* you read on the internet
without doing a bit of research. I'm sick of getting emails from the
Commander list that don't have to do with Aero Commanders. Let's all do
ourselves a favor and keep the political and chain emails out of our list.
If it doesn't involve a Commander, don't post it, I really don't care about
your political opinions and most others don't either.
Thanks,
DW
