« on: August 07, 2007, 02:14:15 PM »
I know from past posts that not all are fans of firepower.

This is for the rest of us.

Life is like a game of cards.  The hand you are dealt represents determinism.  The way you play it is free will.

Ya gotta get the "video number" (the Cd4ghW8sL30 part of the URL), paste it into your message, highlight it then press the YouTube button above the smileys.    ;)

When you NEED it, you become a BIG fan fast!

Notice how the rotors provide fitting percussion accompaniment?

Brings back some fond memories. The mini guns can really mess things up. The door gunners were pretty good. The Apoclyspe Now clip shows how confusing this could be. One of those drivers knew his stuff since he kept it lite on the skids and just went right back up. Thanks for sharing.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Did you watch Blackhawk Down?  Puff the Magic Dragon should have been orbiting Mogadishu to clear a path home for the Rangers.  No map would be necessary and none would have been left behind to be dragged through the streets.

Yes Bob, Hueys were your friend. How about the slick and gunship drivers? Mr. Huey did not get there on their own!  ;D  Yeah TSP Puff would have cleared quite a path. Oh yeah, we also forgot to bring Armor to the party.
