As a young dumb airman no class I bit and made an attempt to stand behind a blast fence while an F-4 was running on trim pad! Hey I had seen others do it.....just didnt realize they werent really all the way behind the blast like I tried! LMAO You figure the blast, or most of it anyway would be shot into the air because of the PSP blast screen.........NOT! Those are some good size holes in PSP! I guess the best thing for blast screens while the bird was running was to use it to heat your C Rations during alerts! I have to admit to safety wiring a few C Ration cans to the fence for a little heat blast to warm my lunch! No birds running, throwing them on the block of the alert truck and making a couple of runs up and down the taxiways warmed them almost as well!

Dutchy, I think you mean either a \"P-51 Mustang \" not a P-40. Jet Blast from a C-141 will bring you back to life after working on A-10's. Knocked me on my ass my 2nd day at work. Goose

Yes your right sgtgoose1, sorry for that. It was the P-51. I was to fast with writing and didn't correct myself. Maybe you have heard this story. It is a famous (true?) story in the Netherlands. By an Airshow in England, Fairford, was an B-1b on the runway. Few spotters and other planefreaks moved forward to see it start and make pictures. They came to close when it starts to make speed with afterburner. They when blow backwards in the field and some has burned eyebrows. I don't know if it is true, but I hear it almost every year a couple times.

While I was stationed at Yokota AB, the \"Black Wolves\" from \"K\" Town would come in on weekends, Well Sundays were the \"JN's Picture day along with the JN's \"RED BRIGADE \"Commie Party\" they would jotted down tail numbers take pictures always looking to see if there was something to \"Bitch and Moan about\" or \"Pass on to the Commies\" . On the north end of the field the highway was just about against it outside the base so they would line up with ladders,stools whatever to get above the fence. So these to Lawn Darts come in and those JN's were just over them taking pictures, So I guess those 2 pilots must of decided to give them a \"Show\". They Taxied to the very END of the runway, and were downing the pre-take-off checks, just basically \"Showing off\" and the were going nuts! Well we could see by the hangar, I was taking pictures too ,what they had in Mind. Boy they started to roll and \"HIT THE GAS!!!!!!!!!\" all you saw were \"Ladders,papers,JN's, Dust,Dirt, everything flying around they cleaned that whole fence area of \"JN's After that when the F-16's they didnt get as close.

I remember when LCDR Gary Jack pissed of a yellow shirt who on the next day sent him tumbling for two or three hundred feet down the steel beach. Lost part of his scalp, some of the elbow and some knee. I also remember Todd Sleezack got turned on by an A-6 right up on elevator two. Todd went over the side. Unfortunately Todd had nine tie down chains on his shoulders. The hook on one of them caught on the railing and the other end caught under his right armpit tearing a large prtion of muscle away. He lived but dam that cold salt water in a wound that size must have hurt like a mutha !
