Lets just say that if ANY of his instrumentation gave up on him that would explain it all. Those things are like flying inside of a super computer.


Glad everyone is alight.






morons. lets laugh at the guys busting their asses to give you the freedom to talk ****.
I just want to point out the irony that you are telling us not to talk **** about the guys that are "busting their asses to give you the freedom to talk ****"

Are they fighting the war on OneManArmy?

That is funny to me, because all of that bad press recorded by "big bad technology" 99% of the time or maybe even 100% is recorded by the soldiers themselves. Funny how it's posted by a guy who clearly admires the army.

-do something stupid or illegal
-record doing something stupid or illegal
-send it out to your friends and the internet


Not only is that ****ing idiot moron coming close to hitting buildings that could have people in them, he comes very close to wiping out a crowd of people, and regardless of him busting *** over there on top of it all is wasting more tax payer money that even the ARMY deems his life worth.

lol. idiotic. Next time maybe he will think before nearly killing a crowd of people to get a cell phone video for his boys at home to watch.

I just had this conversation with several special forces guys YESTERDAY. How the wide availability of cameras and the technology has led to a lot of crap on the internet... most of it posted by soldiers. Hell I have watched helmet camera footage of our tactical training. They said for the most part nothing that gets out there is harmful or not already known.

So just call me oversensitive because I have a great admiration for what those guys are doing and I do personally know a pilot. Those dudes are friggin crazy... and insanely smart. But everyone does stupid stuff.

I just don't like the banter from people having no clue about what really happened. More than likely he was doing something stupid but we don't know that. And those guys don't need cell phone footage. I've personally seen footage direct from the built in cameras of much crazier stuff than that.

sure the under belly gun is gone. the front sensors and aiming system is DOA. but the twin engines are mounted up high and the bathtub is made to take lots of abuse.

and yes, the two dudes in there are probably toast as well...
