Knoxville Convention Center Free to GOA members https://events.goa.org/goals/ Free exclusive shirt if you attended both GunCon and GOALS AND Send pics with the cast from each event to automated@welikeshooting.com - Dear WLS Sean M - I've got a PTR91 setup as somewhat of a DMR with a Magpul PRS stock and a Swampfox Arrowhead 1-10. I'm thinking of dumping the 2nd focal plane lpvo, what suggestions would you have for a different optic for that concept? Otherwise, what would you guys do for a "modern battle rifle" setup? Optics, furniture, etc? Cheers, Sean M No notes And 171 for life Nick D - I have a Mitchell shorty DOC with the mloc guard. I want to get a Midwest suppressor hand guard and a dead air can for it so I can have more rail space. Would this be a good set up? Any other suggestions? I have a heat wrap on the rail now and it takes up almost the entire rail. Help Alex S - I recently picked up an older Rem700 in 7mm Rem Mag. Been shooting my .308 out to distance (~550yds) but wanted to go further so i picked this up on a deal. I posted on DangFree about my new scope(Strike Eagle 5-25 FFP) and got a lot of great help there. My question for you today is about the barrel. It is the standard thinner profile barrel and heats up quick after my first few rounds. Is it worth swapping the barrel out to a bull? Should i leave this rifle as-is and invest in a new platform? Any other suggestions? Thanks for your abuse in advance! Wls4life Ragequit from Twitch - Hola everybody, looking into some defensive pistol/ar training and I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what is worth the time and money. I have seen everything from basic pistol courses where it appears they are indoors at a range to courses that are defensive/competition style classes. And when looking into defensive ar courses it runs the gamut from just getting into ar's to having “professional” training for wet work. What do I look for when trying to decipher the description of classes? I am located near the PA/MD/VA area so for the most part that is not a bad drive for most training if there is a recommendation for classes. What should I look for and what “descriptions “ should I steer away from. I appreciate any help, one of the watchers from twitch Ryan W - I have a registered SBR and recently moved to a new city. (It's an actual SBR with a stock, not a braced pistol, I am not one of those guys.) I read on the ATF website that a change of address form could be submitted after a move, as long as I am not crossing state lines. However, I have also read that the ATF is no longer requiring a change of address form at all, as long as the new address is in the same state. Do you know if this is true? Also, how long do you have after a move to notify the ATF? Thank you for the help...hopefully Mike H - Throwing an update since I already decided on my optic I was asking about earlier, found a great deal on a Sig Sierra3BDX 4.5-14x44 scope and picked up a rangefinder to go with, the scope was only $300 Nick F - odd question but have any of the cast looked into the "no new cemetery " conspiracy? I've found that some cemeteries practice the 50/100 year rule. apparently you don't own your plot forever..... Daniel A - What would you choose to defend yourself FN HP 9mm older model or a DB9 gen4? And is the older FN HP better than the new ones? The winner of this week's swag pack is Mike H! To win your own, go to welikeshooting.

A contrails study by GE Aviation and NASA, an F-15E Strike Eagle downs drones, Iberia's new A321XLR in service, the Phillippine Mars moves to its final destination, an airliner and a UAP come close together, Spirit Airlines files for bankruptcy, and the environmental impact of private jets. Also, AvGeeks flock to Bluesky, a STEM author at the NASM, and F-35B trials on a Japanese flattop. The contrails of an Airbus A340 jet, over London, England. Photographed by Adrian Pingstone in March 2007. Aviation News GE and NASA to accelerate understanding of contrails The "Contrail Optical Depth Experiment" (CODEX) is a research project conducted through a NASA and GE Aerospace partnership to study the formation and behavior of contrails. Contrails are clouds of ice particles that airplanes can create when they fly through cold and humid air. Persistent contrails are thought to contribute to climate warming. The primary goal of CODEX is to accurately measure the optical depth of contrails, which indicates how much light is blocked by the contrail. In the project, a GE Boeing 747-400 creates the contrails and NASA's G-III research aircraft (a modified Gulfstream III business jet) follows and scans the 747's wake with Advanced LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology to analyze the contrails produced by different engine configurations. This will hopefully lead to the development of engine technologies that reduce contrail formation. NASA Gulfstream G-III NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, operates the Gulfstream G-III aircraft, NASA tail number 804, as an aerodynamics research test bed. Work with the aircraft is funded through NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD) as part of the Environmentally Responsible Aviation (ERA) project under the agency's Integrated Systems Research Program. GE 747-400 Flying Test Bed Since 2010, this former Japan Airlines plane has been used by GE to test new jet engines, such as the GE90, GEnx, LEAP, and the GE9X. The plane is based at Flight Test Operations (FTO) in Victorville. F-15E Pilot Recounts Having To Switch To Guns After Missiles Ran Dry During Iranian Drone Barrage An F-15E Strike Eagle shot down so many Iranian drones aimed at Israel that they ran out of air-to-air missiles. The crew was ordered to continue and use any weapon available, which left the Strike Eagle's 20mm Gatling Gun, capable of firing around 6,000 rounds per minute. Operating this gun is said to be risky with small, low, slow-moving targets. In this instance, the F-15 did not stop the drone. Feel Sorry For the Flight Attendants: Iberia's New A321XLR Long-Haul Jet Features Tiny Galleys That Even Contortionists Would Struggle to Work in Iberia is the launch customer of the Airbus A321XLR (extra long range) single-aisle jet. The airline is flying the plane on a Madrid and Boston route. According to Saffran, the Airbus SpaceFlex V2 galley and lavatory allows for 6 more seats in the A321. The Airbus Space-Flex galley and lavatory concept. Airbus says the A321XLR features a 4,700 nm range, 180-220 seats, and 30% lower fuel burn per seat than previous generation aircraft. The plane was launched in 2019 at the Paris Air Show. Compared to other A320 family aircraft, the A321XLR carries more fuel, has strengthened landing gear, and includes a revised wing trailing-edge flap for takeoff performance. Airbus offers two engine options: the CFM LEAP-1A and the Pratt & Whitney PW1100G. The first A321XLR was delivered to Iberia on 30 October 2024 and conducted its first revenue flight on 6 November 2024. The first long-haul flight with passengers was on 14 November 2024, from Madrid to Boston. Martin Mars To Visit San Francisco, San Diego On Final Flight The Philippine Mars is destined for the Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson, Arizona. In preparation, the plane is undergoing taxi tests in Port Alberni, British Columbia.

The United States and Guyana announce joint military exercises after the president of Venezuela threatens to take part of Guyana's territory. Nicolas Maduro claimed the oil-rich region of Essequibo after holding a referendum on annexation. Brazil has deployed extra troops along its border with Venezuela. We hear from Venezuela's attorney general and a former US ambassador to Guyana. Also on the programme: is anywhere in Gaza safe from Israeli bombardment? We hear from a woman in a UN shelter in Khan Younis. And a surreal encounter between our Russia editor and the former Austrian foreign minister who defected to Moscow.

As a pilot in the initial wave of women to fly modern combat aircraft, Erin “Aero” Orga actually grew up dreaming of being either a professional roller coaster rider, Olympic figure skater or an astronaut for NASA. Her passion for air and space finally won out and she attended the University of Notre Dame on an Air Force ROTC scholarship, where she graduated as one of only two females in her class with a degree in aerospace engineering. Aero was also a distinguished graduate out of AFROTC and was awarded a highly coveted Air Force pilot training slot. During her initial training at Columbus Air Force Base, Aero was ranked high enough in her class to earn the right to track select into fighters and she was eventually chosen to fly her favorite fighter aircraft, the F-15E Strike Eagle. During her 10 years in the Air Force, Aero flew over 50 combat missions in Iraq, where she provided air cover for the US Army and Marine units on the ground in places like Bagdad, Fallujah, and Mosul. She also provided air cover for the first democratic Iraqi elections and the second inauguration ceremony of Hamid Karzai in Afghanistan. When she wasn't flying F-15Es, Aero spent time as a T-38 instructor, training many young Air Force pilots who would go on to fly fighter jets. Aero eventually left the military to focus on her family and her newborn son. She moved back to her hometown of Pittsburgh and began working as a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) and Program Manager for Westinghouse Electric, a nuclear engineering company. During her time at Westinghouse, Aero has run global teams of engineers delivering successful projects in the US, the UK, Canada, India, and China, with many of those projects valued at over $100 million and is currently managing the design and testing of a brand-new type of nuclear microreactor. In addition to her professional careers, Aero has devoted over 15 years to training in Tae Kwon Do, in which she holds a third-degree black belt.

Capt Brian Udell tells his harrowing story of ejecting from an F-15 fighter, flying at well over 800mph! Capt Udell's accomplishments go far beyond his dramatic ejection and heroic recovery. Brian has been passing aviation milestones since he began flying. He began flying at only nine years old, he took his first cross-country flight at age ten, soloed at age 16, and received his Private Pilots Certificate at age 17. Since that time he has accumulated over 22,000 hours in a variety of both civil and military aircraft. Brian was top of his class among the initial group pilots selected to fly the F-15E Strike Eagle. Going on to become an Instructor, Mission Commander, and Air to Ground Top Gun winner. He has flown over 100 combat missions in Southwest Asia and logged nearly 2000 hours in the Strike Eagle. “SocialFlight Live!” is a live broadcast dedicated to supporting General Aviation pilots and enthusiasts during these challenging times.

Whiz briefs with bad ass F-15E Strike/Eagle fighter pilot Erin 'Aero' Orga, one of the first female figher pilots to sit with the medicine to heal her traumas. Aero, who had never tried any sort of drug in her life, went FULL THROTTLE with iboga. She debriefs how at the depths of her journey, in a dogfight with her ego, she 'asked for help' and for the first time in her life...actually got it. Remembering that she IS a bad ass, she exprienced what some call the 'holy instant'. She reminds listeners that 'trauma is trauma' and not to judge your own - if it hurts, that's enough - you can heal it. Aero was shown the answers she 'knew, but didn't know'.

Episode 139, and well well well what a bumber edition we are bringing you this month! What with the show being less regular, the guys thought they would bring you a 3 hour (!) special (this show will last the journey from London to Hemsby by car in fair weather). In the first half the fellas speak to returning guest, the funkmeister, multi-instrumentalist that is Beckett - for a quick intro to the brand new album and touring news. Meanwhile the 'after hours' second half features an in-depth natter with the godfather of synthwave shows, Andy Last of Beyond Synth. This conversation got sweary real quick, so make sure there are no little ears around.... You will also hear top new tracks from Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Your Sister is a Werewolf, Zayaz, The Less Dead, a Manhatten remix of Micromatscenes, and Nevermann - featuring (former guest) Dana Jean Phoenix, Waveshaper, Mskra, Touch Sensitive, TheMidnight, Fractal Man, Video Age, The Subtheory, Pogo, Chromatics, Von Kaiser, Strike Eagle, and a New Order classic! Enjoy, and we'll see you again next month.

The first WSO to command a Seymour Johnson F-15E Strike Eagle squadron, he'd assumed command of the 335th Fighter Squadron "Chiefs" a month before on 9/11, and began flying defensive missions over Washington DC and New York City that morning. Colonel Dennis had to care for and feed a Strike Eagle unit fighting at home and deployed to Kuwait for Operation Anaconda and Qatar for Iraqi Freedom while in command. While at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, he led the air group assigned to a very secret special operations unit called Task Force 20, The Wolverines!

Let's take a look at what makes the F15EX Eagle II the Ultimate Eagle: The F-15 Eagle is the embodiment of the air superiority fighter, having been in continuous service with the US Air Force for nearly 50 years. A fighter with an unprecedented 100+ to zero kill ratio, the F15 was made even better by the introduction of the two seat long range strike fighter version known as the F15E Strike Eagle. Today the F15E is the most requested asset for Middle East Combat operations - the reason? Loiter or on station time: The Strike Eagle can carry as much fuel as its empty weight. To put that in context the F15E can carry as much fuel as the total weight of a fully fueled F16! Along with this, the Strike Eagle has a Weapons System officer or WSO which acts as another brain and set of eyes in the cockpit. The WSO has various dedicated standardized roles, for example during close air support missions, the WSO exclusively uses the targeting pod, freeing up the pilot and minimizing the time to kill chain. Another example is when a Strike Eagle pilot is busy refueling, the WSO can receive and copy an interdiction message from a JTAC controller on the ground, something that would be impossible in a single pilot cockpit. The Strike Eagle also makes use of one of the best Active Electronically Scanned Array or AESA radars in service. The F15E's AN/APG-82 AESA radar represents a continuous evolution of the F15's sensor suite, providing unprecedented situational awareness, jamming capabilities, and range. The F15's large size is an asset here, allowing it to fit a much larger and more potent radar sensor package than would be possible to fit in smaller fighters. Additionally the Strike Eagle makes use of a built-in satellite radio, allowing it to communicate over the horizon to critical nodes or assets. Keep in mind everything mentioned so far has been about the existing F15E Strike Eagles, now let's get into what makes the EX version so special, and why it's a win-win for the USAF.If you enjoy this episode, subscribe to this podcast, you can find links to many podcast streaming services here:PilotPhotog Podcast (buzzsprout.com)You can check out my YouTube channel for many videos on fighter planes here:https://youtube.com/c/PilotPhotogAnd finally you can follow me on Twitter here:https://twitter.com/pilotphotogSupport the show
Recently the Air Force conducted a munitions proof of concept where five AGM -158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles or JASSMs were mounted to a single F-15E Strike Eagle. The effort has been dubbed Project Strike Rodeo, which explores the concept of self escorting fighters entering into highly contested airspace. Today we will take a closer look at Project Strike Rodeo and how it could be yet another game changer for the F-15.If you enjoy this episode, subscribe to this podcast, you can find links to many podcast streaming services here:PilotPhotog Podcast (buzzsprout.com)You can check out my YouTube channel for many videos on fighter planes here:https://youtube.com/c/PilotPhotogAnd finally you can follow me on Twitter here:https://twitter.com/pilotphotogSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/PilotPhotog)
Let's take a look at how the Eagle became the Strike EagleOverviewThe F15E Strike Eagle is a dual-role fighter meaning it is capable of performing both air-to-air and air-to-ground missions. The Strike Eagle is a twin engine, twin tailed fourth generation fighter capable of taking the fight down to low altitude and operating day or night in virtually any weather. Developed from the hugely successful F-15 fighter, the Strike Eagle was created to fly long range interdiction missions or deep air support without the need for a fighter escort or electronic warfare aircraft. Notable features that distinguish the Strike Eagle from the F15C Eagle are tandem seats, conformal fuel tanks, and a typically darker camouflage.

At an early age Vanessa “Siren” Mahan was exposed to aviation, whether she was attending numerous air shows, flying with her dad in a borrowed Cessna, or traveling standby on commercial aircraft to go on vacations. While she had a passion for adventure and was seeking to flee the nest of home, she wasn't sure about a career choice. She decided to take a chance. She applied for and received an Air Force ROTC scholarship to Purdue University. It was there that she fell in love with the Air Force and serving. When 9/11 occurred in her junior year, her call to serve got stronger, but she knew she must be patient and finish school. She excelled in AFROTC, finishing at the top of her class, as a Distinguished Graduate. This earned her her first career choice…an assignment to Strike Undergraduate Navigator Training at Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola. With hard work and extreme dedication, she again received her first choice of aircraft…the F-15E Strike Eagle. As a Weapons System Officer (WSO) in the Strike Eagle, she would deploy in support of Operation ENDURING FREEDOM (OEF) at Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan. Her primary mission would be Close Air Support (CAS), protecting joint and coalition forces from above. After two back-to-back tours in support of OEF, Siren chose an assignment flying the EA-6B with the Navy at NAS Whidbey Island where she would also be stationed with her Navy husband. Siren became the first female Air Force Prowler aircrew to be assigned to a fleet carrier squadron and spend time on the USS Stennis doing “workups” for deployment. After having two kids and ten years of active duty flying, Siren made the difficult decision to transition to the Air Force Reserves. She currently works as an Air Operations Staff Officer at Special Operations Command Pacific in Hawaii. When she isn't serving in the Reserves, she pursues expanding her business “Siren Strong” where she trains/coaches clients in a holistic method as a certified functional fitness and health coach. She also enjoys spending time with her husband, two kids, and golden retriever puppy “Blue”.
