More genius level news commentary from Fox News.
The pilot referred to it as a stool, but it’s obviously not something that you can buy at Home Depot for $20.00.
More evidence that the people who write the news copy and the pretty people who read what is put in front of them really are idiots.
Fair and balanced and stupid.
EDIT: I should have known that OldNFO would have this not only before me, but have much better video. Sigh.
That was a very impressive bit of flying by that Marine.
I’m kind of surprised the radome took that kind of force when the nose came slamming down!
I noticed that too. They built those Harriers tough. Although the pilots are probably tougher.
IIRC, there are primary strength runs (basically, a “keel”) under the radome, because the 25mm Gatling gun that bird uses shakes EVERYTHING up. (Not as bad as an A-10, but what is?)
That makes sense. And by the A-10 being “bad”, you mean “bad ass”, right? 🙂
That actually goes back years… Some of the taildraggers in WWII literally were put on rolling stools to move them around… 🙂
