    So this group has inspired me to continue to fly.
    Due to injuries in Afghanistan I can't get my pilots license. So this is the next best thing.
    I love watching these videos and I eventually am trying to get my skills high enough to join GR.
    Thank you all for what you do.
    You have helped in me in more ways than you can imagine.

      The discords there for everyone and anyone who has the little control to yank and bank an aircraft and welcomes them to the Sunday Funday.
      They now usually are uploaded to the GrimReapers2 Channel so might check them out we do nearly equally crazy stuff over there.
      And if you are there at the right time in the right voice channel and your voice is at least known, then Cap just might invite you to "Wargames" where all sorts of interesting stuff happens.
      I myself found GR more by accident after I already learned the frogfoot and Warthog and wanted some place to fly with other people.
      And looking back GR is maybe the best place for me to do that. I still can't do air to air refueling, I only sometimes catch a wire and my A2A skills are really lacking...
      But you know what never is lacking once you fly with the boys and girls?
      That's right: fun and appreciation
      No one gets left out and anyone can come by to have fun. The sillier the better if you don't hinder the fun of all the others.
      I find the small insight into your story moving and inspiring. I can only imagine how hard it might be to be hindered in getting licensed. I myself hope that maybe one day I try to get airworthy IRL. But keep your affection for aviation and explore the possibilities of flightsims. I bet the GrimReapers will want to accompany you and stand by your side if you just take a peek and talk to them. Easy start is joining the training server "Stoneburner" from GR and fly with random people.
      Details to that can be found in the grim reapers discord.
      Best of wishes and stay a beautiful person in a sexy machine 👍

    The Official Simba Fan Club recognizes simba as GR pilot of the year for landing under fire in a major crosswind on a carrier. He did this in an F-14 with NO fuel and constant comms chatter. He has brought great pride and excellence to the youtube arm chair generals and the United States Armed Forces. Your tacky wooden tail fin will arrive with your name in recognition of this act. Shake, take, salute.

      Thankyou, thankyou everyone. I accept this award but I must thank a few people. First off my Casting Agent Damp Sok for all the practice sessions on the casting couch. Grump yeah you too man those wake up calls and voice acting lesson really paid off. Of course How can I not thank Tuxxor no one personifies I’m too cool fo basic stuff like tuxxor. It’s get good or die training mentality that helped me to succeed. And finally Cap. What can I say. Years of formation flying. Sycronized take offs. Hours of naval battles not being allowed to land on the carrier. All of it for this moment in time. This will go on my shelf next to the award cap gave me two months ago. We’ll when it finally get here in the mail. Thank you every one this one is for you.

    Idea inspired by this video:
    Darts.
    A skill competition wherein MiG-21s or F-5s spawn at a certain altitude with no fuel and need to hit a specific target on the ground with their face. You can set up objects in circles to serve as the dart board rings.

    If my memory serves me correctly, from when I got my Air Warfare pin for the F/A-18C, there is a little bit of pneumatic air that operates the emergency gear down. But it's just enough to unlatch. The rest is done by gravity. It's been 14 years, so no one shoot me if I'm wrong!

    Landing on a carrier, simulated of course, is the shit. I used to use my sim and land over and over and over. It was almost hypnotic and exceedingly satisfying.

    1:35 I don't want to be that guy (that's a lie, I love being THAT guy) but....
    "Punch it Spunkmeyer!" isn't actually a line from the movie.
    Ferro (the pilot of the 1st dropship) says "Move it Spunkmeyer." just before they both die. *OOPS SPOILERS*
    And Ripley shouts "Punch it Bishop!" as they are fleeing the imminent explosion in the 2nd dropship.
    It helps if you remember that Spunkmeyer isn't a pilot, he's the navigator/gunner/observer and he never actually flies the dropship.
