Just picked up a 86 T-Type. I'm originally from Detroit, military brought me to Niceville, FL. I'm a helicopter crew chief in Air Force Special Ops (got 19 years in). This seems like a great place to learn about these cars, which is what I am doing.

Thanks! I appreciate it. I have been messnig with naturally aspirated motors all my life, I figured it was time to learn something else. Tons of great info so far...
 
Welcome and thanks for serving. READ READ READ about these cars before you start pounding on the gas pedal.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new purchase....you'll find it can be a love/hate thing with these cars.:D

Are you stationed at Hurby? From your screen name I'm guessing you used to be a Pavelow guy.;) Do you happen to know Danny Rhodes?

You guessed it, prior Pave guy. Been at Hurby since 1999 hiding out. Yeah, I have known Danny for about 15 years or so! Haven't seen him in a few, but we go way back when it comes to Ford vs. GM. :cool:

Looking forward to learning more about these cars. :D
 
Wow, small world! Danny and I were in the same tech school class at Sheppard, roommates in Osan working Paves, and then to Kadena on 60s. But yeah tell me about the Ford vs GM smack talk, lol. I was a Chevy guy back then and we always used to bust his balls about Mustangs, Fords, and Mark Martin...its all in good fun though.:cool:

I was hoping someone would have contact info on Danny as I would love to get in touch with him. I was med retired from the AF in '06 so some of the guys I keep in touch with don't know his whereabouts....last time I saw Danny was in 03 or 04 at Hurby. I bet we know a lot of the same guys, you know the rotorhead community is pretty small.

He's out at Davis Monthan now back in the CSAR community. If you want to I can get in touch with him and pass him whatever you want. Just shoot me a PM. Yeah, real small world! We probably know a ton of the same folks. I have been doing a special duty since '04, that is when I left Pave's. You probably know Dave Cook then, too?
 
Thanks for the info. Yeah I know Dave...don't know if he remembers, but we were also in Korea together.

Sending you a PM....thanks!!:cool:
 
Well if you can be a cc on a 53 and a 60, you can tear into a TR! It's good to know that I'm not the only turboprop/shaft guy here. I'm propulsion on H3 trash haulers, getting to know the spectre/spooky guys really well while deployed to the "box"
