Hubert Boillot Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 No worry about the aerodynamics of rearward-facing bombs ... the pilots on-board will have a hard time starting the engines with the FOD-covers in place ... Hubert Gerhard and BiggTim 2
Jack Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 there is nothing wrong with that picture..................is there?? BiggTim 1
BiggTim Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 I saw the covers, too, but figured that might be normal if they're parked. I couldn't tell if the pilots were in the pit.
Guest Smitty44 Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Covers,ordinance,and I'm not in the cockpit!
ssculptor Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Because human beings have and display a good sense of humor; when they are not busy on killing one another. Jack 1

Guest Clunkmeister Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 And the starboard main tire looks like it has maybe 5 lbs of air in it. Tops.
Usmcski Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Aside from the obvious (rearward-loaded Mk 82s), the BSU-33 conical fins are nowhere near straight. They should be in a proper "X pattern" when viewed from the direct front or rear of the bomb... Semper Fi, Ski
RLWP Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 And the starboard main tire looks like it has maybe 5 lbs of air in it. Tops. I think you are wrong. It's just that the pilot has an extra sandwich his lunchbox BiggTim 1
