INS Alignment at Sea by Larry
How is the INS aligned at sea on a carrier that is moving at 30kts? Actually it was quite a challenge. I was AEAN Flight Deck Troubleshooter assigned to VAW-116, launching the E-2C Hawkeye off the pointy end of the USS Constellation during the WestPac of 80-81 when we had to do a "handset align"...

Vietnam. Any US planes lost in China ? by Mike
Were there ever any United States combat planes lost in China during the Vietnam war ? Some of our planes must have flown close enough to China that they may have possibly had to crash there.

Old airframe, new engine by Jim Strand
Every year or so I post a similar version of this. Always nice to see the comments. Seeing as how we have a few new faces around here now lets have another go at it. You are able to select any tactical jet airframe from the past. We'll assume all engines would fit properly. What bird would you...

technical question from The Movie by Tag
Maverick is sitting in the TACTS trailer getting his ass kicked for performing a split S when he should have been thinking about how to save his $40 million dollar airplane. Viper says if he selected zone 5 he could extend his escape. What does zone 5 mean ? Always wondered about this.

I recently met with a former Army officer, and he was telling me about parts of a military career that I didn't know about. For example, he mentioned that you can become a "military attache" in...
