The crew wore chutes until 2008 the practice was discontinued since the KC-135 is not designed for safe emergency evacuation using a parachute. One of the pitfalls of converting a passenger jet for military use.WTF are you talking about? What makes you think the crew wasn't wearing parachutes?
I will suggest you base your conclusion on facts. Something which seems to be lacking throughout a good part of this thread.Which is why I mentioned, I hope it is true.
You don't have to convince me anything, I will do my own conclusion and judge from there.
Considering the amount of fake news and AI slop that has been plowed into this thread, you are a fine one to be talking.
I'll put my ability to research and provide facts against pretty much everyone here. So far, most of you seem content with AI slop.
What the heck
I know that now. I still have reason to see the tanker driver. Missed him the last time he was home.The crew wore chutes until 2008 the practice was discontinued since the KC-135 is not designed for safe emergency evacuation using a parachute. One of the pitfalls of converting a passenger jet for military use.
And for that, I will consider an apology. Still, given some of what's been posted in this thread, any insult I may have posted pales to some of y'all.Before attacking users, use that “ability to research and provide facts” to google “do KC-135s have parachutes” to find press releases. Nothing to do with “AI slop” at all. Fog of war happens. Basic facts do not fall under fog of war.
You simply spoke without research and in a hostile manner that was uncalled for.
ok please open up a dictionary and look up the meaning of the word sarcasm.no
