I love my Breitling, although my everyday/deployment watch is a Suunto Core - all black. :D

Jungle,

PERFECT taste in watches!! The one in the Manning add is a little "loud" IMO

Nice watch. My Citizen broke just a few weeks ago (bike crash)

My "whiz-wheel" had been frozen in place for a couple of years now. At my age I couldn't read the numbers anyway if I had to use it:D

JMHO,

PS. Real men wear the "Citizen Skyhawk". Gotta love the time zone setting function:cool:

I thought that guy had ppl, cpl and a type rating to boot?

Not the point......he has never graduated from USAF pilot training. Therefore, no more qualified to wear them than any other non-USAF trained guy. For example, I would never presume to wear a pair of Navy wings, no matter how many ratings I have.

Honestly not trying to start a p***ing contest on who is better trained.

Hmm, where to start?


Thanksgiving: That is very very kind of you to open your home to the starving pilots. Ill eat at Ft Campbell this year I think.

Watch: Citizen Eco Drive = best watch ever made. end of story.

Flight sim: Unknown... However to hijack this thread for a bit; has anyone tried this place http://www.flyflightdeck.com

Thought about non revving out there and checking it out...

Didn't know it was an air force jacket, sorry. Just thought you were saying he wasn't a pilot is all, hehe :)
