It’s Giuliani Time Again
Trailer from new documentary GIULIANI TIME, directed by Kevin Keating, opening May 12 at Landmark Theatres’ Sunshine Cinema in New York City. More at www.giulianitime.com.
How great would it be if the wingnuts nominated Giuliani? This guy is such a megalomaniac, such a control freak, that I can’t help but think he’d completely melt down during a presidential campaign.
FLIR
From AvWeb:
This is an F-16 on a visual landing to Aspen, Colorado at night. The right half of the view is the pilot’s normal visual path to the runway during darkness — in other words, totally black. The left side of the screen is the Forward Looking Infrared [FLIR], which paints the heat signature of the outside terrain for pilots so we can see at night as though it were daytime. … You have to love FLIR … takes all the fun out of night VFR!
Well I’ve never landed an F-16, but it sure looks like that thing drops like a rock, doesn’t it? They certainly weren’t flying a standard traffic pattern. Kind of a dogleg/straight-in/slam/dunk kind of thing.
Sounds like they’ve done that Pre-Landing GUMP check a few times too.
