I'm afraid that for reasons too embarrassing to announce there will be no catering facilities on your flight with us today.

Ive seen super slow motion films of explosives being detonated inside of one of those things. There supposed to be uhhh explosion resistant. But from the inside out.

Somewhere on live leak Ill see if I can find it.

Luke AFB, 1983. Flightline Airman got a little close to the F-16 intake while the aircraft was "almost" at idle.

We had to ship the engine registered as Human remains until it got to Hill AFB for "separation".

19 year old kid and the family does not even have a body to bury.

Jet engines suck... if you are in front of them.

If you are behind them, they just blow.
