I always liked going out to Saint Louis when this bird was new. My company's gates were straight across the runway from the MD's factory. There was always something going on there to watch. F-15s, T-45s, AV-8C&B and F-18s were always being test flown...cool. It made good conversation for the rest of the day especially when you would see a "Viking Departure." A full afterburner take off, then straight up to 15000'.

Oh, that's funny.

...and I'm sure he's hearing many things just about like that, too.

Poor guy. Especially if it turns out to be something he couldn't have done anything about. Just glad the kid wasn't hurt.

He's got his callsign now I'm sure. Usually your first embarrassing incident is what gets it, and this certainly qualifies. Normally your first Squadron gives it to you, but a few have it when they arrive.

Oh in sure it's worse. Some of the ones I've heard were horrible, but funny as hell. And not repeatble because of the T&C.
