Thanks brother!
We’ve all done it. Jobs gotta get done
I once went to germany with a Cat D9 bulldozer on the back. Over loaded on 4 axles. Total weight over by 15 tons. Over height. Over length.
Had so many flashing orange lights and “convoi exceptionell” signs all over it that the police didnt even slow down to look
Makes the trip out there seem to take forever but the trip back goes in a flash
LOL! You’re the REAL bad boy of trucking @Victork2! I might go so far as to say you’re completely insane!
Just wrapping up 3 days in Arizona. Caught AF1, Yuma based F-5s and F-35Bs, a British C-130J, RCAF Hornets, multi-country F-35As and the last of the F-16s at Luke AFB. Pics will be coming once I get home tomorrow.
@ST0RM, I think you’re the only guy here that can get 13 likes from people just ANTICIPATING your pics ha ha!
lol, only just realised that. I’m waiting for the pics but for pointing that out for me you can have one from my daily ration
Isn’t that trailer excessively long? How to you make 90 degree corners, particularly on 2 lane roads, without clipping another vehicle or curb?
It’s your standard 53’ trailer. A truck driving instructor once told me, “All these lines on the road … only meant for cars. Disregard.” … he was Polish.
Yeah, I found that rather funny as well.
Lord, I hope I don’t disappoint.
Ok, so I’m jumping into Dec 7th. Heard there was a RAF C-130J operating from a small California airfield. It was only about 2.5 hours from Phoenix and slightly out of the way from Yuma. So I set off at 0400. The manager wouldn’t let me on the ramp for a beautiful full moonset behind it, so I waited for the coming sunrise.
Next, made the 1.5 hour run to Yuma, knowing I’d already missed the morning launch and recovery. The F-5s only fly 30 minute sorties since they dont carry aux tanks. So, I had to wait awhile.
Caught these over the day.
05 still in VFC-13 markings
“Felon” transfer from VFC-13
And their F-5F with new tail art
Lastly, VMX-1 was flying through out the day, in conventional and VSTOL modes.
Wow. I’ve never seen a C-5 but I’ve been inside a C-17 once and that wasn’t a small aircraft. The C-5 must be massive in person.
Awesome shots. If I could give you more than one like I would
Edit: Just realised I can. Like added to your teaser post
Those F-5’s are soooo good lookin’!
That Bacon is so good looking!
Deacon likes Bacon…!
