I even managed to put a couple of United pilots into F-18s, looking at
unusual attitude recovery. No contract, no agreement, no nothing. A
duck counter would have been (forgive me, I can't resist) duck soup.


Crap ma'am, sign me up!


Did I ever tell you guys about bug collecting with the Jetstar? Or
how we simulated dead bug bodies when getting the real thing didn't
work? Nothing to do with ducks or contractors or pax operations,
although I have a story about pax-like operations in turbulence with
the Jetstar.


Sounds like a good story to me. Am within driving distance of a NASA
research facility, but it's near the north (instead of a ways from the
left) coast.

Looked into using one of our singles for duck-counting, but the
paperwork for low-altitude twin stuff was bad enuff. But man,
compared to the F-18 deal...

And I do really need to know how to make "simulated dead bug bodies".
