Heh I used to work on S3's when I was in the Navy and sometimes the planes would come back with a bird impression and blood on that radome.

that is tasteless, yet humerous

Linflas - I've always wondered if it was safe to have the radar that close to you in planes? It like right between your legs.

Can someone do an NSLookup and get me the ip? I'm one hop from a backbone and my DNS sucks here....I don't want to change it up because I'm still testing the 100MB Link.

They had radar absorption material on the bulkhead behind the dish and the radar also had a blanking area where it was not supposed to transmit when when the dish was pointing back towards the plane.

What is that civilian doing onboard an aircraft carrier? Must be one of those tech reps.

S3 sounds like a vacuum cleaner.

My dad was able to have me, and I am pretty normal...

Guess the absorption material and blanking area worked.

I always wondered if Santa showed up on radar.

....I guess he doesn't.
