Business End

Gattling

Fuji X-T1 and XF 35mm f/2.0 WR R Lens – 1/30 @ f/2.8 – ISO 800

This is the business end of a 30mm Rotary Cannon on a Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II Warthog Anti-Tank aircraft. This canon is designed to fire a maximum of 3900 rounds per minute with 50 rounds per second (for the first second until the rotary canon comes up to speed) and up to 70 rounds per second thereafter.

If I was on the ground and needed help there would be no doubt with “who you gonna call”

Here is a link to this amazing aircraft – A-10 Thunderbolt II

Time Of Your Life

To all of my friends – until we meet again

“Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test and don’t ask why
It’s not a question but a lesson learned in time

It’s something unpredictable but in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what its worth, it was worth all the while

It’s something unpredictable but in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It’s something unpredictable but in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It’s something unpredictable but in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life”
