    Steve, Great shots, thanks. Sorry I could see everyone at S&F, had to travel and work all week to pay the rent :-) I heard from a friend that one of the Yaks had a single bomb like tank hanging under the fuselage. It gave him maybe another hour or so in the air. I've been wondering how to add fuel tanks to my Yak. Dennis sent me a link to some down under company that had rocket like pods but I have lost the link. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Doc, you forgot to turn out the lights around that postage stamp, add big enough swells to make the ramp cycle 16' up and down and make 96,000 tons of boat wallow and dutch roll to where lineup has to be "averaged" out. Then add a fuel state that gives you one look before you have to go find a tanker between thunderstorms because you're in "blue water ops" with no divert and hope the tanker has enough give to get you another pass. That "crash" landing is the greatest feeling in the world! Ah, the good ol' days!

    I recall watching/waving a VA-52 A-6 tanker lots of nights on the LSO platform that hook-skipped nearly one pass every night. Drove the airframe guys crazy. Snubber replaced, hooks replaced. It was known as "Boltergeist". It made the final night recovery tanker driver sweat more than once. The toilet paper trick for the Crusaders was gone right before I got to the fleet.

    Mark, Bill and all you other Navy pukes, Ya'll definitely have my respect! Crash landing on postage stamps knowing your last landing may have been your best landing just is /was not for me. Kind of like landing that humbling YAK-50! Where you were only as good as your last landing! I did lie a little, we in the AF do have a "Hook" and a " Cable". We just try not to use it! Something is really bad when that happens! Guess it's like Hose Hemantis (sp) said on Ed Sullivan many moons ago when questioned about his future as an astronaut, " Oh I hope not!"

    Mark, Like I said a moment ago.. you guys have all my respect. We blue suiters prefer to fly over that big pond nicely nessled on the wing of our gas station. Give me spindlely gear and 8000 feet any day! It was not until the 50 did I learn what that saying meant.The second greatest thing man does is fly.The first great thing man does is land! And all the time I thought flying was the first greatest thing we did well atleast with your clothes on that is!

Sorry I could see everyone at S&F, had to travel and work all week to pay the rent :-) I heard from a friend that one of the Yaks had a single bomb like tank hanging under the fuselage. It gave him maybe another hour or so in the air. I've been wondering how to add fuel tanks to my Yak. Dennis sent me a link to some down under company that had rocket like pods but I have lost the link. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Actually, its the guy who used to work with Carl Schels who designed the behind-the-rear-seat tank. He's in Eagle River, WI.
