A gypsy wind is blowing warm tonight
The sky is starlit and the time is right
And still you're tellin' me you have to go
Before you leave there's something you should know
Yeah something you should know babe
I've seen you smiling in the summer sun
I've seen your long hair flying when you run
I've rnade my mind up that it's meant to be
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Out where the rivers meet the sounding sea
You're high above me now, you're wild and free ah but
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Some people say that love's a losin' game
You start with fire but you lose the flame
The ashes smolder but the warmth's soon gone
You end up cold and lonely on your own
I'll take my chances babe i'ii risk it all
I'll win your love or i'ii take the fall
I've made my mind up girl it's meant to be
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
It's written down some where, it's got to be
You're high above me flyin' wild and free
Oh but someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Out where the rivers meet the sounding sea
I feel it in my soul, it's meant to be
Oh someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Someday lady you'll accomp'ny me
Ahh... They don't make music like this anymore. The Brushie is in a strangely romantic mood today.

just to name a few.
Plus he did Classic BSG and Black Sheep Squadron (Baa Baa Black Sheep)
OMG...Tales of the Gold Monkey...I loved that show..too bad it didn't run for very long :mad:
Love Black Sheep Squad too, and was always a BSG fan.
I also want to point out a common recurring theme with Bellisario's shows...most either allude to or are about the US Navy.

I've been watching those on the weekends on the local Retro Network here in the DC area. Sometimes, I 'm entertained, sometimes I shudder with the campiness of it all

It's all fabrication anyway. The only true bits...There really was a VMF-214 called The Black Sheep, they did fly Corsairs...and they were lead by Greg "Pappy" Boyington.

They're still around too, although flying Harriers these days obviously (although they're known as VMA-214 now). I coached three season of kids soccer when I was in High School, and my team name was Pappy's Corsairs. Needless to say, not many people got it, just the Plane heads like myself.

Yeah. I could have gotten it. Mostly because the Vaught F4U-4 "Corsair" is absolute favorite prop plane ever...Close second is the Grumman Goose (used by Jake Cutter in Tales of the Gold Monkey, and appeared in an ep of Quantum Leap)

Being a plane head myself, there are several aircraft that I think are made from pure awesomeness
Sopwith Camel
Vought F4U Corsair
North American P-51 Mustang
Lockheed P-38 Lightning
Supermaine Spitfire
Messerschmidt 262
Vought F-8 Crusader
Lockheed F-104 Starfighter (as Seen in TOS Epsidoe "Tomorrow is Yesterday")
McDonnel Douglas F-15 Eagle
Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird
Grumman F-14 Tomcat
McDonnel Douglas F-18 Hornet
Mikoyan-Gruevich Mig-29 Fulcrum
Dornier DO-335 Pfeil
There are others, just can't think of them
I will add the following to the list:
Supermarine Spitfire
Hawker Hurricane
North American B-25 Mitchell (especially the B-25J variant, which was outfitted with 18 .50 inch guns)
Lockheed C-130 Hercules (Especially AC-130H "Spectre" and AC-130U "Spooky" gunship variants)
Fairchild-Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II (aka Warthog)

All good aircraft too. I knew I was frogetting some. When I see the "Road speed is enforced by aircraft" Signs along Virginia's highways, I always have an image of an A-10 in Virginia State Trooper colors firing down on speeders

whats sad is that ya guys didnt say the F4 phantom. That was the most sophisticated plane with the most ground breaking technology, materials engineering and radar to have been put on a plane at the time....you have redeemed yourself with having the SR-71 on the list. A air craft made by teams of teams of people that would leak fuel on the ground and have to be refueled after take off as the heat would warp and change and close off the tolerances so it wouldnt leak fuel.
When the F4 came out new materials had to be made to make the engines, it had new wing technology that no other plane had, it had its own radar and didnt need a ground based radar system as other planes did at the time, it was amazing....and it was a flying bus. but the technology pioneered in the plane has put it in a place in the history books for sure.

We didn't forget, there is just so much awesomeness in the air. Thing is, the F4 is still in use in some foreign air forces as their primary fighter aircraft.
oh hey come on now, the F4 was I believe *is going to have to watch the documentary again* was one of the first if not the first plane to not have gas in the wings and it forced air out over the leading edge of the wing and had a lot of other new designs.
If you want a example of something that shouldnt be able to fly look at the F117a That is aperfect example of this "shouldnt be able to fly at all." It was one of the most challenging planes to get to fly. most planes were not fly by wire this took it to a new level of how to get a non flying shape up in the air and flyin.

Depends on which boards you frequented.
I frequented a nice one...Still friends with most of the regulars from it too.

gawd... the memories.
Had an 80's flashback of movies the other day - Up the Creek, Conan the Barbarian and Red Sonja...
I've been trying....

Just ordered Tales of the Golden Monkey from Amazon. Will be here on Thursday, mwahahaha

I found it at Walmart one day. Grabbed it....Was the only copy there...and haven't seen once since.

OMG...The live action piece of TRIBBLE starring Dolph Lungdren? <shudder>
