Big time

As I was organizing my office in preparation for moving in the next couple weeks I thought you guys would be interested in seeing just how much stuff I had to learn. In theory I know everything that anyone could ask me out of any of that. In practice, welllll possibly might depend on just what you were asking.

question
What are the layered orientations of the carbon fibre layers along the helicopter body?


nah nevermind. Just have fun at what you were trained to do.

I am guessing there is no storage area on the helicopter to take those with you...hence, you have to remember all that...?

ugh....you are a bad man Shifty!

I figure you already knew that much about the anansi. A real helicopter should be easy.

(manuals)....ouch.

The Marine instructions seem much easier:


Question: You're qualified as pilot, correct? How much of the gunner's training did you receive?

@Nano, that is one of the questions I neglected to study.

@Mortimus, yeah not a lot of storage room. Barely room for me with all my gear.

@Bank the Anansi did give me more trouble, hell I still can't fly that thing.

@Oddbird, I am qualified both as a pilot and a gunner, though for the next couple years I'll do more front seat (gunner) than back seat.

Nano's trying to bait you, that's secret, need-know stuff. Never trust a canuck! SiN's probably standing behind him with a wireless, waiting to transmit your answer to the motherland.

Gunner/Pilot - I suspected dual qualification would be the norm. I didn't know both seats had flight and firing controls.
In case anyone's interested, I dug that up HERE (page 4)

FRIG OddBird! - I was eating a spoonful of chocolate ice cream when I read this. I chuckled so fast the ice cream came out my nose - GROSS.

Yeah, both seats have the ability to both fly and gun, but only in a limited capacity. You could definitely engage and destroy targets from either seat but you wouldn't have full functionality of the weapons systems from the back seat. Also that article is actually about 98% accurate for the most part, though it does speak in very general terms.

Shifty's not lying, he's legit now! Pinned by my very own two hands.

We are all proud to be your clan-mates!

ea!


/and great picture!

wtg mr shifty

Way to go buddy! You can now feel free to be my gunner in the anansi!

But seriously, that is awesome, congratulations Brandon!

I wish you clear skies sir. Congratulations! Wings!

Awesome! You da man!

My brother has been working the hellfire missle program for Martin for years. So press the red button. Keep him employed!

Any deployments coming up?
