F-104 Starfighter (Audio)

At this moment I am listening to this episode and touching a CF-104 starfighter at my local aviation museum. Good thing I'm not a pilot or I would worry about it sensing my presence and trying to kill me

Late on this the French owed Australia a shitload of money.

Rocz, why the fuck did you stop yourself from saying “Smokey and the Blandit” as a movie title in the intro there?That was fucking perfect.

Started listening to the bonus preview not realizing it was a preview while doing some design work- when the audio cut and I qc’d the podcast app. I knew there was only 1 thing to do. Appreciate the podcast! Grateful to have found an engineering pod with leftists! Thanks for the show!

new favorite episode, god damn

I have been with TSA for 19 years and I can guarantee you that if you showed up dressed in a Kamikaze outfit I would be having a few words with you lol.

Okay yes it was a bad plane, but consider this: Funny Dart Plane.

Also the f-107 legitimately looks like something out of a Gary Anderson television show. I think I've seen that thing in Thunderbirds before

One thing I want to point out is, and this may be because I am admittedly an f86 saber simp, is that the f86 did have a couple notable features that the famous defector was kind of shocked at when he got to sit in the cockpit of one. The first was heating, and the second, related, was a much better cockpit canopy de-icer. It was kind of an interesting scenario, because while the mig definitely had Superior performance and most aspects of flight, in terms of the crew, the pilot of a mig was generally going to be under a lot more stress from the low temperature and other fleshy limitations than the pilot of an f86.

Yeah there was some slight confusion about the wrong thumbnail and all

BLESS YOU SIRS, YOU ARE DOING THE LORD’S WORK

I greatly appreciate you pushing out all these audio only episodes right before I go on a 12 day road trip for my daughter's senior trip. She's also a fan and I'm looking forward to listening to these with her.
