      Thats it? If you had a fighter jet, you’d do two chicks at the same time?

          And it’s really hard to have sex in a fighter jet. It’s not exactly a roomy interior.

          For having sex, the best experience is a minivan.

    I discover the crashed F35 in my lone walk in the woods. As I start to take it apart for parts, a woman catches me. She tells me to stop. It’s her father’s business. She’s Lockheed. I say no. We make love all night. In the morning, the feds come and I escape in one of their uniforms. I tell her to meet me in Mexico, but I go to Canada. I don’t trust her. Besides, I like the cold. Thirty years later, I get a postcard. I have a son and he’s the chief of FBI. This is where the story gets interesting. I tell Lockheed to meet me in Paris by the Trocadero. She’s been waiting for me all these years. She’s never taken another lover. I don’t care, I don’t show up. I go to Berlin. That’s where I stashed the F35

    Considering it is apparently a federal offense to tamper with aviation debris or accident scenes (assuming the plane looks intact) absolutely nothing, call local cops, they call AF.

      Great BBQ. Those rednecks do NOT fuck around with a pork shoulder. Charleston has really great food. Also, the hunley museum is pretty cool.

      Otherwise, it’s great if you also happen to be into book burning, or if you’re a completionist collecting STDs.

        Ha, I thought nobody would ask. It probably will be quite a disapointing story though, sorry.

        Anyway, I was on holiday in Slovakia and basically, they just have old sovjet jets sitting around. We visited a very small “airport” (the runway was grass) used for skydiving. And they just had a MiG-21 sitting behind the building. No fence or anything. One of the Skydiving company staff said I can sit in it, if I want. So I did. He didn’t come with me or anything. It was also out if sight from anyone on the airfield.

        Apperently this isn’t unusual at all and these planes are just sitting around in random fields as “decoration”.

        Here’s a googlemaps link. I sat in that one!

            I’d feel bad hotboxing a plane in a museum.

            Yeah, don’t do that. To be honest, I didn’t even close the canopea fully, I worried about not getting out. I sat on the wing for most of the lenght of the joint.

            But It sounded much cooler this way.

                That’s not a fighter jet.

                Just visit eastern Europe.

                There was another plane, I think a MiG-15, that was literally just sitting in the middle of nowhere next to a hayball. We were just driving past it. I tried to find it on google maps, but it was many years ago and I just can’t remember the route … or any waypoint.

    Assuming I could figure out how to turn that thing on, I would definitely:

    • Take off
    • Go to maximum velocity
    • Burn out all the fuel
    • Acknowledge that I have no idea of where or how to land
    • Look for the button to the ejection seat
    • Glide down towards the equator
    • Eyeball the necessary altitude
    • Push the button
    • Pull the parachute cord
    • Flip both the birds
    • Land on a beach
    • Walk up to the bar
    • Ask for a beer
    • Run from the bill

      This one doesn’t have an ejection seat, remember?

      take off

      Knew you meant it as a joke but i thought it interesting to share that Fighters don’t have a simple “start” button, here’s a F-16 startup sequence for reference.

        Most of that isn’t involved in actually starting the plane.

        They are things that would be good to have done to fly safely. Something analogous to turning on and tuning the radio in a car. You can absolutely start the engine and drive the car without doing that.

      Limp to the bar, stumble away from the bill.

      Ejection seats often cause career-ending musculoskeletal injuries to the lumbar spine and hips. It’s is a very violent way to leave an airplane, but much less violent than the alternative.

        There’s also the teensy problem of the last guy to fly the plane took the seat with him.

    Assuming no consequences, I’d love to open various panels and try and figure out what does what. It’d be really cool to see inside one of those.
