My journey for a work course tomorrow is now scheduled to include 7 different trains and get me there a mere 3 hours later than planned. FML

This is from the Kiel Canal about 6 years ago. Thankfully we were ahead of it, but the local pilots were translating the comms traffic for us so we knew what was going on behind us.

What is a Lightship? A birdshit covered enclosed space. That's my experience anyway. Oh, and noisy, when we turn the gennies on at least. NGL, still kinda like them though.

Getting better at the standard flight model in #arma3 so I tried the advanced. Please compare and contrast in the pictures below.

#arma3 was amusing tonight. SAR ops when the RO didn't manage to get out of the helo at the LZ and ended up (as the only person who could contact the air support/eyes in the sky) self-repelling out halfway across the map, so the squad was hunting blind through the jungle. Gentle Reader: I'm the RO
