    I was in Alaska last month for my son's retirement ceremony (Air Force) and caught a few Raptors landing. Also saw this AWACS from Oklahoma.

    Geez, they get any more blades on those props and they'll be solid disks!

    YOU are the first responder. Police, fire and medical are SECOND responders.
    When seconds count, the police are mere minutes away...
    Gun registration is gun confiscation in slow motion.

    No pics but just saw four V-22 Ospreys fly by the house. They were booking west.

    Which variant of the Herc is that?

    The seven-bladed props make it a J or later, if memory serves.

    It is a 1994 H3 model. They used to have four silver aluminum blades and the J Models (they came out in 1996) have 6 blades. The very first A models and a few Bs had 3 bladed props. I have never seen a 3 blade prop in person.

    These NP-2000 props have 8 blades and are friggin awesome. Between the new props and new Rolls Royce engine upgrades, it is a total sportscar.

    You wont see any more of the older 4 blade hurks anymore. The props got old and started having issues like blades coming off inflight. That is not good.

    Please let the Marines know if any of you have a picture of their missing F-35.

    I'm starting to think that F35 Pilots have the most experience ejecting compared to any other fighter jet.
