The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our job is to keep her free. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Relocating?Military members find information on homes for military by visiting Military Homes.com For the Effort!Subscribe![]() Tagsafghanistan AGW Araby army Blogging buffoonery china culture economy Flying Friday Musings geopol GWOT Headlines health care History iran iraq issues Media Memory Lane Military Navy norks Oz pakistan piracy politicians politics Politics and Culture pundits Russia science seals sea stories silliness Small Stuff SoCal sport technology UAVs UK usaf usmc weapons WP Cumulus Flash tag cloud by Roy Tanck and Luke Morton requires Flash Player 9 or better. |

I liked “Thriller” the best! Too funny!
Of course, the chatter would’ve been fun to hear, as well.
What I ‘d like to know is – what kind of search did our humble scribe do on You Tube that netted this gem?
YMCA with hot RAF man?
Thriller + plane pr0n?
Some wonky song + skinny white man legs?

I’m not so sure that our humble scribe had to look too hard for this one. Isn’t it the same as the one on The Flight Deck?
I like plane pron as much as the next airpower junky… but there’s just something wrong with that. So wrong… gonna have to drink a whole lot to get YMCA out of my head.

For countries that salute with an open palm, the big hands make sense, I guess. At least the marshaller is pretty sure the taxiing pilot is paying attention.
If only out of
‘what -the-h*ll-is-he-going-to-do-next?” curiosity.
Been away for a while, what with the Holidays impinging on materia webex… Loved this on Lex!
Had a bit of a twinge, as I wondered what scribes of yore would think of this web business, instant visual and auditory gratification, when 100 years ago it could only be delivered on crinkling pages…Where is the “Devils Dictionary” when we need it.
Your tribute to Richard E. Rosenthal brought forth what my pappy used to say: “You are better off writing from your open heart than from an open Thesaurus…” Elegant pen!
I ain’t going to touch your PC post, not when it only is applied to that dreadful long toothed Academic Liberals. As we all know, the Conservatives, free thinkers that they are, have no constraints on their thinking…
“Marshall Jets” is a new term for me, but then also stumbled across the word “analemma”, and a picture to explain it. Those navigators, waving their hands in the air as they try to explain their art, may be able to use it.
A glass of champaign to the New Year and to our next joust.

Dunno about you, but I find it disturbing when the Italians are held up as an example of the “normal” way to do things…
Maybe we’d have a cooler military if we could have cooler mustaches. *sigh*
Looks like the last guy practically has a fu-manchu
Came over via Tammi, and must add here I have been lucky enough to spend a little time at “socail events” with folks from the RAF. They ALWAYS bring a gift, and they are always the cheekiest and most entertaining in the bunch!
Now that funny… I think I’ll stick to flyin’ the friendly skies of the USA… I ain’t never seen London, at probably won’t after that PSA….
Those folks aren’t right.
hehehe
AW said “cheeky”
I personally thought, that aside from the Brits, the Italians were pretty daggum funny. That thing at the end cracked me up. Maybe its just because I live with so many Italians…
Made me wonder if you ever had any non-comformists marshall you in. I’ve seen some of these vids before with dances and stuff and have always wondered, “What in the heck did the pilot think?”
That’s hilarious….. I love it!!
Well, they took it down. I wonder why?
Two things.
1 – That’s brilliant. (it’s down on youtube but up at The Sun)
2 – Americans typically are first subjected to a witch hunt and then beaten about the head and shoulders for doing the same thing… even though they still do…
For those that can log into military.com. Not nearly as clever (save the Kung Fu one near the end).
