I might have to look into the Schedule 80 PVC...I can engineer anything, it might not be the prettiest thing, but functional. lol Engineer a ram air tube from down below somewhere. I remember seeing somewhere a guy used dryer ducting to pull from under the bumper or there abouts.

Air Force TACP's are ground pounders that deploy with Ranger units. They use our software to conduct all the precision air strikes that you see on Youtube.

Ah I see. That is why I didnt know what they were. My job revolves around the flight line. Once those bad boys take off...it is all mission for them.
