Ops-Talk - The News Page for Vehicle Operations Personnel

From Lajes Field Azores. "Senior Sequeria and Senior Medeiros join with SSgt Gee and MSgt Zweeres in a paint detail while Senior Pereira looks on". What a great background, the beautiful Atlantic. Gees guys, even I don't have a satelite dish! And this is a remote assignment?????

More from the 506 ELRS Kirkuk AB Iraq. Looks like these "stealth" vehicle operators pulled a fast one on the Army and "procured" this palm from in front of their HQ in broad daylight! You have to keep me posted if you and the tree lives!


This tank broke down in front of Veh Ops at Kirkuk AB Iraq and once repaired the folks got to take it for a spin. L to R: Lt Harris Cannon AFB NM, SMSgt Malenic Scott AFB IL, SSgt Key Barksdale AFB LA, Amn Torres Minot AFB ND and SSgt Dutcher Barksdale AFB LA. The Army also ask the folks to load this Helo on one of their tank haulers for transport. The historical Helo was first to fire a shot during Desert Storm. The 50K operator was SSgt Key, who also was the Kirkuk Warrior of the Month! Way to go guys!

"TRIVIA"

The last trivia answer (Oct) was in fact 40 MPH. Congrats to J.J. Shire for first in with the correct answer and to Jason Robinson for his detailed formula!!!
Justin takes the underground train to work and uses an escalator at the railway station. If Justin runs up 6 steps of the escalator, then it takes him 48.0 seconds to reach the top of the escalator. If he runs up 15 steps of the escalator, then it takes him only 34.5 seconds to reach the top. How many seconds would it take Justin to reach the top if he did not run up any steps of the escalator at all?
