• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

OT: Blue Angels

Holy :censored: that's funny!!!
I especially like this part...
...The enthusiasm of Erin Rappaport, a Springfield, IL eighth-grader who played flight simulators on her PlayStation and impressed Naval flight teams when she sat in the F/A-18 Hornet's cockpit for the first time and already knew, or could guess,† the functions of many of the jet's 188 different controls.
"That sounds just like Erin," said Rappaport's math teacher, Janice Billingsly. "We'll miss her very much."
Erin wasn't the only special person who flew here today; she wasn't the only female, or the only person to crash into Pino's Pizza on Grove Avenue, or even the youngest. But, witnesses said, she displayed incredible grit and a can-do attitude to her classmates who were inside eating pizza when she tried to fly by and wave...
Hits a little close to home don't it?
Now if y'all don't mind I'm gonna try to rack up some practice...I know it's not a Hornet but it'll do (that and I think my Blue Angels Crusader is in the reserve hangar--still haven't successfully landed that one yet!):costumes:
 
That is funny! I remember reading a satire piece like that in 1991 about Carrier Aviation and the "fact" that the laws of physics were prohibitive regarding Carrier landings and that the "real truth" behind it was that every Carrier had a huge electro-magnet beneath the arresting wires that would pull the planes on deck as they flew over it. LOL. The funny part was, quite a few people bought it as a real story! LMAO!!! :costumes:

I love the onion. I read it pretty regularly. I always laugh when I read that site.
