Here is a pic of one who was piloted by an ex-JG300 pilot? _________________ The only thing to do when a son-of-a-bitch looks cross-eyed at you is to beat the hell out of him right then and there Last edited by Tanklord on Thu Jul 05, 2007 11:05 am; edited 1 time in total

I need one of those AH-1's to use as transportation to and from offshore drilling rigs. Bet I get a few raised eyebrows, and a bit more respect, if I showed up in one of those! _________________ The only thing to do when a son-of-a-bitch looks cross-eyed at you is to beat the hell out of him right then and there
