Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Funny shots, Christina and Tim !!! Ha!! At least my Corsair shirt looked good from behind !! :lol:
Right now, I don't have any new info about when the Super Hornet will be actually arriving
on Thursday, or what NAVY squadron it is from, BUT I did hear it could possibly be a
Super Hornet that's less than 4 months old, so keep your fingers crossed for a brand new
SUPER BUG arriving at FRG on Thursday, because that would definitely be SWEET to see !! :borat: :wink:

Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Holy **** fred! What happened? Did it slam into slam into another car and go on fire or just some engine troubles?
btw- I saw some of those big paving trucks going on New Highway today, does anyone know if they are just filling in remaining holes or repaving it?

The driver heard a pop and pulled over..... Gasline went and so did the engine compartment
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Hey Fred, Jack would have had that fire put out in seconds!
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
At least the person is okay. We could have had an NYCA BBQ on that thing!
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Actually Steve shown here had it out within seconds... It was like he did that 3 times a day everyday. I was pissed he did it so fast as I had no take to take pictures of the fraction of the moment he gave me. Most firemen would take a minute or so to get everything prepped, but AARF was acting faster than most fire departments would if there was a family stuck inside.
To say I was stunned was an understatement! IT WAS AWESOME and I should have run Video! :lol:
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
AARF has seen a lot of action lately between this and the Cessna's.
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Nice shots Fred. See we hang out one night and you are chasing fires.

On a side note...that was in Farmingdale too, but not at the airport!
Re: Republic Farmingdale (FRG) Notable Visitors
Great shots, great lighting.
