In need of some help with USAF pilot jargon

[Homefry 0]

As suggested, try a flight sim forum... I recommend the Lock On: Modern Air Combat forums, its a nice community, I'm sure someone there would be willing to help out.

I'd suggest the falcon 4 forum over LOMAC. Falcon 4 is more realism oriented while LOMAC is more blow-shit-up oriented.

Nothing wrong with that though.

The only reason I suggested the LO-MAC forums is the fact that I read the forums regulary, and I know they would probably be helpful... and I'm unfamiliar witht the F4 forums...

Done.

If no fish bite, I'll pester the LOMACKERs.
