Didn't think the Airforce had the dash 60 any more. used it many times on an ec 135 for starts, we also used cartridge starts on alert in the 80s

[Khmerican1]

@yota486 its a generator and ac unit for a f-16

[driftingranger]

God, did I hate Sheppard!

[goose20013]

@tannerstap so did i.

[driftingranger]

@tannerstap i don't think there is a single person who liked that base except the instructors.

[Sethican]

@driftingranger Nope, we don't even like Sheppard. No one like Sheppard! I've been here 5 years and am yet to find someone

[yusei85]

@driftingranger I really enjoyed my stay there doing pilot training with the talon (lots of study though). Nice people there. But obviusly Sheppard AFB is in the middle of nowhere... Cheers!
