First of all, thanx to everyone for all the information and for the video in action.
I had zero for clues how the rocket derailment worked.
This supposed vet had more stories and experiences then i had forgot !
The 600 knot story pretty much confirmed a BS story..But I did not know .Our old Hueys was comfortable at a thump thum along at p 80 LOL . We were farting around one day and put one to 120, it was poping pretty good even from inside. LOL
We certainly were not ever going to out run a feathered bird much less a rocket!
Next time i see this person, I am going to ask for his DD214 .I will explain "stolen Valor "and want him to clarify.
I am betting he gets MAD as hell and squirms a lot.
This pelican site of Wayne's has all the information a person would ever need. A lot of talented and experienced people here.
Thanx!
