Welcome to the DTR!!<br><br>You will find everybody here slightly warped from breathing too much #2 fumes.<br><br>What is the winged apparatus slung under the belly of the jet? External drop pod fuel tank? Or cruise missile, maybe? Or is it an avionics package like the LANTIRN pods on warbirds?

Re:picture

That is a pretty cool pic. I love airplanes and stuff. I used to go on the side of the runway at night and watch Tomcats do touch and goes during Carrier Landing Practice. It was awesome. I would park the crash truck right by the runway at touchdown. When they went afterburner on takeoff, it would shake the daylights out of the truck, and it was SO LOUD! It was awesome. BTW, I was a controller, not a firefighter. We just used their trucks a lot

The aircraft is the 1st stage. Much cheaper than ground launches. I just loaded 60,000 lbs. of fuel for a flight tomorrow. I figure that would run my truck for a good year! Now what are thes **** cam plates you all talk about and where do they go???<br><br> JJ :
