Hilarity all around.

Is this also destruction of government property? :wink2:

Yup, a Longbow actually as the HDD is showing FCR on the left. They hit at 75 KIAS (the number at the top left of the TADS box) and about 15 feet RADALT (top right of the TADS box). You can see the pilot actually handled it pretty well and flared to a soft run-on landing.
Still, what a muppet :D

They don't make'em like they used too(Chickenhawk style-use the helo to cut your way through the jungle). That portapotty one cracked me up.
