Was that film shot in night vision?

It was using the Forward Looking Infra-Red mast the helicopter has. The "white-hot" comment was about the type of picture it shows using the FLIR, black-hot shows heat as black smudges instead.

They seemed to either have good stamina, or fast recharge. Assuming it was a guy (I am not leaving out the possibility of female with strap on).

I doubt they'd be going at it like that in the day, though...

One moment I had the feeling they switched to thermal view.

And if the place is away from traffic they could do it.

I saw a short movie of a couple doing it on the last row of chairs on a stadium, during a game, although they seemed to be alone on that row.

Yeah, but if it was daylight, I think they would've noticed that they were being watched (the one pilot reported flying over the shed and spooking them).

Because you touch yourself at night.

And you're a butter bar.

In the heat of the moment, I doubt they'd care much.

Well, we do have Colonels out here too. I guess they much touch themselves alot!

But anyway, I downloaded the video at work today, using the Air Force's broadband. I mean, it's gun camera footage, how against policy can it be? Needless to say, it was quite the hit among the flight. Strange thing is that this happens to be the day in which we had to all fill out an Air Force Sexual Harassment Survey.

"So this one time, at training camp, I sexually harassed a couple with my targetting FLIR."

Because you touch yourself at night, LT.

And you're a butter bar, sir!

Tsk tsk...

Anyway, was that really done at JRTC, as the name implies? If so, that'd be hilarious. And for all we know, the CO was the one flying.

"I think we're stirring them up here, 'cause they're kinda looking confused now."
"No, no, they're humpin'."

I wonder how many helos they had around there, trying to find a good viewing angle.

I would've liked to see the reaction after they did the flyby.

Yeah me too. I was kinda hoping they would fly in and just turn on a spot light on them, but I doubt that spotlights are standard equiptment on military helicopters, shame.

No, but I bet the landing lights would have done the trick.

I kinda had a scary thought; what if they did that and it was like a Major in the car with his thing on the side? Couldn't have been good for the career!

As the Duty Officer (or whatever the Army calls it) stands rigidly at attention:

DO: "Sir, we have no idea who was flying, sir."

MAJ: "Well, what does your damn logbook say about it??!!"

DO: "Well, sir, um..."

The unit's CO walks in, after just having viewed the tape yet again, laughing hysterically, and catching the tail end of the conversation, with one of those frighteningly amused looks COs seem to have:

CO: "So, tell me Major, just why are you so interested in who was flying, anyway...?"

MAJ: "Um, ah..."
