So we do this, and we're going to go shoot at Fort Knox, which is about a two-hour flight.
So I'm in the left seat this time.
Donovan's in the right.
And we got approval to roll in hot.
We didn't have to clear the range, because we had eyes on the range before we got there, which is unusual.
Usually, range safety is going to want you to do a drive pass, but they let us live fire right out of the gate.
So we roll in.
Again, there's two daps.
We're about to shoot.
I'm flying.
I pull the minigun trigger.
And these freaking miniguns, the tracers are doing this in front of the aircraft.
And I'm like, as soon as I saw it, I let off.
I never even got close to shooting rockets.
And I said, that's the worst bore sight I've ever seen in my life.
Because you have this little device that you set an aim point like on a hangar door out in front, and then you, because these weapons come on and off, right?
And rocket pods, and you have to adjust them to where they're going to point at least close to what you're trying to shoot at.
It's not an exact science.
At least it wasn't then.
But this is way out of range here.
