Viperpits and BMS Falcon- the next best thing to being there!
https://navair-pub-sites.s3.amazonaws.com/IBAR_TOFT_017.jpgAhhh, our average setup at home
I have a Private pilot ticket (that in't really current) and I've been a Flight Test Engineer for the past 38 years...I've been in and out of RL fighter/attack cockpits during all that time, plus I've got about 500-600+ hours in various Fleet Trainers...which is a bit unusual even for most of the rest of the other Engineers I work with - I've just been luck enough to have been in the right places at the right times. Most and most recent of my faux flight time is in these -https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IUTBgL8bawQ/VIMIJLERBBI/AAAAAAAAhVc/P3Z-RiJrBVA/w1200-h630-p-nu/Link_FA18_Australia_2.jpgThis one, in fact - this pic was as it was first being installed, I got to help with the initial standup and checkout...in fact, I think I recall having flown aa full A card FCF on it as part of that:https://navair-pub-sites.s3.amazonaws.com/IBAR_TOFT_017.jpgThat happened mostly because of my Viper project - now I don't know where work ends and hobby begins! I've also had the privilege of getting to fly a real Trainer configured Super Hornet from the back seat...NOW it's time for me to retire!
