    Brilliant! I sure miss Big Sexy-she served honorably for her entire career in the USAF. I got about 5k hours in her, and loved every minute. Well, maybe not transition time…lol.

    I'm looking for Senior Airman Bruso, I want to (potentially) give her (consensually) my Boom Operator. (small but hard fighter jet) Where are you you beautiful Airwoman of the friendly skies you enforced to stay friendly with your top of the line air dominance you ensure with your high pressure pumping m'lady. Without you, life is sometimes meaningless. I am smitten Senior Airman Bruso. Even if you were a man, I'd still pretend you were a man, but I'm glad you're a woman so we could avoid all of those complications. Anyways, I am kidding. OR AM I?
