An old whaler we did multiple shots with our disruptor May this week
The hull handled the disruptor hitting it at 500mph well.
Testament to how stout whalers are

Ugh, I was gonna say before I read your post: PLease tell me you're not destroying that Whaler. That would make a GREAT project boat. Restored 21-26 whalers are worth a pretty penny

Govt owned since new
That thing will be a reef before it ever goes for sale lol

Nope, but I can operate a 416 and defeat a collapsing circuit, which the owner of that plane would just duck and die lol

Former Govt VIP ? --- Curious, just how far up the food chain does one need to retire from to be awarded this publicly funded privilege ?

All Former Pres. and spouses get SS free rides, even to make money signing books.
This was a privateer donating his plane for the ride instead of a Govt. gulfstream
I don’t know if govt. pays fuel costs

Fun fact:
SS has to teach Kids who grew up in White House how to fly on commercial airlines as they never had to.

life skills

Ohhhhh, that's just cruel :D

Sounds like a class I could use --- after flying countless thousands of miles both self-pay and courtesy of the military, I haven't set foot on an airliner since 2003. :)
I prefer the "Leave the driving to me" mode of transportation. I've been advised by management however, there's a change-a-comin :eek: :rolleyes: :p

Called out to Griffith Observatory last night . Some strange “artwork” dropped off by a citizen that ran away. Electrical components wrapped in a US flag. I had to cut the flag.....Patrol will dispose (burn) it properly.

It is, looking down from the south main divide above the Ortega. Had a small job up there today.

I'd read on Brush fire partyline about a control burn along the divide, noticed a few around Palomar mtn this week as well.
Considering all the fires the past few years up there, I'm surprised there's much left to burn.

Been watching the Palomar and the little Thomas Mt. Prescribed burns from the house all week.
