I remember crossing a ridge line and passing an A-10 going the other way. He must have had the same idea we had as he immediately honked into a steep bank and began trying to get a bead on us. We both came over guard at the same time, "Guns guns guns." I think his 30mm Gatling gun would have done a little more damage than our 7.62 Gatling gun, but he missed us and we got him.  |
Good work! We had to stop doing any unbriefed air-air after one of our flights a year before I got there did nearly the same thing, but it was ROK Army Cobras, and the ROKs weren't too keen to play, and hence not too happy about it. LOL.
P-73....ever get the ROK controller "Watcheeman on Guard, I see you! Turn immediately or you will be fired upon!"

Ahh... going to Osan and chasing Air Force chicks... taxi cab races... having a C-5 cut us off at Humphreys at night (that pesky localizer was almost the same as Osan's).
So many stories from over there that I would post but I'd be afraid of the Army hauling me back on active duty for a court martial. Is there a statute of limitations on being a young, dumb, invincible LT with the keys to a $10,000,000 aircraft and no adult supervision?

Oh no kidding......all the good stories have to be saved for when the statute of limitations expires. I'd like to stay part-time Reserve at best, no desire to be hauled back to active-duty for any reason!
