Title: What would we do in a zombie situation?
Post by: will3947 on March 10, 2013, 05:37:50 AM
What do You think CAP would do during a zombie outbreak? Disband? Team with the national guard? Kick some major ass? Fly away? Blow some stuff up?

Personally, I think that in case of a Zombie outbreak most of us would just turn off the TV and go do something else until a different show came on. I need to clean the garage myself.

I think that as a whole, CAP would quickly cease to exist. I am sure that there are groups of members who would band together to increase the individual chance of survival. Government funding for flying would be nonexistent, and I think that the idea of us teaming up with the National Guard is chimerical.

I also doubt the impending outbreak of the zombie apocalypse, but one can always hope right? >:D

I've read the book twice. I don't ever remember it using CAP...but now I find this:

Captain Gavin Blair: Former Fujifilm blimp pilot; current captain of a D-17 dirigible in the Civil Air Patrol

Colonel Christina Eliopolis: Squadron commander in the Civil Air Patrol. Crash landed during the war in the middle of zombie infested territory but was able to survive and be picked up with the assisstance of a Sky Watcher codenamed "Mets Fan" who is later revealed to be a figment of her imagination. Maintains belief that Mets is a real person.

No seriously, don't you think we'd do some scouting before our ground teams were eaten and infected? Cap would disband for sure, but still. We're bound to have an affect in the beginning days of the outbreak?


ITS LOGICAL! WE'D SEND A GT INTO THE WOODS TO INVESTIGATE. MAYBE GET COORDS FOR THE NATIONAL GUARD TO MORTAR STRIKE!

What makes you think that CAP would be dispbanded?

Seriously.    In WWII CAP was created to fill the nitch that the services could not cover due to other pressing needs.

CAP could go back to war time operations......local surveys.  Looking for the zombie hordes.  Liason Flights....flying supplies and personel from strong hold to strong hold.....as was pointed out air travel will be one of the safest ways to get people from point to point.

With a Zombie Crisis.....CAP will be the go to place for light aircraft support to the military/State/Federal/county/local governments.

So what 900-3 says is that if a law is approved during a zombie emergency stating "all PIC shall have handguns," and a CAP airplane sortie takes him to zombieland, then the PIC will carry a handgun...

CAPR 900-3 1. a. (1) and (2)...

Quote from: NTSB Report SEA02LA058
On March 25, 2002, about 0720 mountain standard time, a Piper PA-18-150, N22EV, sustained substantial damage after colliding with terrain near Fort Peck, Montana. The airplane is owned by the pilot, and was being operated as a visual flight rules (VFR) flight under the provisions of Title 14, CFR Part 91. The commercial pilot-in-command and passenger sustained serious injuries. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed.


The pilot was conducting a predator (coyote) control flight over private rangeland near Fort Peck. During the flight, at a reported altitude of approximately 40 feet above ground level (AGL), the passenger inadvertently discharged a semiautomatic 12-gauge shotgun. The pilot, who was seated in the forward seat, reported that the gun fired 3-4 times, striking the right wing, fuel tank and aileron assembly. He reported that the damage resulted in a loss of aileron and elevator control. The airplane entered a descending turn to the right and subsequently impacted terrain in a nose-low attitude. The pilot reported the aircraft was on fire upon touchdown and continued to burn after the impact.

The pilot reported that there were no preexisting mechanical malfunctions or failures that contributed to the accident.
I can just see it coming ..

In that case, I would load up the CAP Cessna 182 at the airport with two high yield high capacity 3 drawer filing cabnets with paperwork and have the air crew drop them in the middle of the zombie hoard.  By the time they are done with the paperwork, the outbreak of zombie-enza will be contained and treated accordingly.

*Facepalm* Potato jokes..... originality at it's finest. :P

I think the likelyhood of the potato gun (or bomb) would be substantially less than lethal... unless you happen to score that ever elusive TBI hit.  :D

Legal or not per the 900-3, you better believe I'd have a weapon (or several), and since I'd be expecting trouble they wouldn't be anything small.   8)

Ok, I see.

One day there will be between Wings
Verily much a trophy
For taking out the biggest Zombie
With indigenous Zings.

Zings will fly
No one will Die
Many CAP'ers will try
Only one will make the day.

There comes the Day
When Zombies Graze
In the Field they will Play
In a Ghastly Daze

CAP Will Fly High
Out of Danger
High in the Sky
Good thing im a Ranger?

I would take my Bugout Gear, and get the best i can into the Mountains. If i link up with a CAP Pilot, i will be his observer and shoot anything in sight. Go pick up my SEAL buddy and all of his Gear, and Fly to the Artic, I hear Zombies hate Cold Weather.
Zombies are supposed to be DEAD. When you're dead, cold is a way of life. ;)

True, but what i wanna know, how is there blood still RED when there Dead? Red is only for Oxygenated Blood? Hmm

Because once the hemoglobin in the Zombies blood is exposed to the ambient atmosphere it absorbs ambient oxygen from the atmosphere and presents itself as RED!!!!!!

On and on turning one to Zombies!
Please stop ranting yes, you and YOU!

No, not, either on the ABU
So we do not see Mr Zombie.

I have though about this on many a long car ride, and the best way I think I could play it would try to make it to the national guard armory in Chattanooga, where I could get weapons and supplies, and make it to the top of lookout Mtn. and shell the heck out of Chattanooga.

I think that as a whole, CAP would quickly cease to exist. I am sure that there are groups of members who would band together to increase the individual chance of survival. Government funding for flying would be nonexistent, and I think that the idea of us teaming up with the National Guard is chimerical.

I also doubt the impending outbreak of the zombie apocalypse, but one can always hope right? >:D

Zombie apocalypse aside, I think that in the event of a major catastrophe or crisis, to include an attack or invasion, CAP would adapt and provide support for such cause. The fact that CAP started because of World War II and that it provided anti-submarine patrol and warfare, border patrols, and courier services is very indicative that there will always be those willing to risk their lives to protect our freedom.

As far as teaming up with the National Guard or the Armed Forces in general, I don't see how that would be "chimerical". If anything, we are already partners with the U.S. Air Force and, by extension, the Air National Guard. In WWII, we supported the efforts of the Army and Army Air Corps. In any "zombie apocalypse", we would do the same!

Napalm will be pretty effective at incinerating zombies. Napalm is not in stocks, it is not hard to make at all. Although it is gasoline and will eventually go bad.

Bad had different connotations, depending on how the gasoline will be used. For cars, the mixture needs to be fairly fresh, with all the high volatiles present. For something like napalm, almost anything will work. Five year olde gas still burns very well.

Not blasting Zombies but had fun making a few.

Took a couple of chem-lights activated them and cut the ends off the tubes.  Took a small brush and painted the kids faces and turned them loose in the neighborhood.  It wasn't even Hallowween which really made it interesting.  Our oldest daughter went into the local 7-11 and told the clerk she had been swimming in an old strip mine and found some toxic waste and hoped it would not affect her.  (There are advantages to living in a small town, you can still have fun and not get into too much trouble).

don't get the stuff on clothes, it stains and will not come out.

So I was talking with somebody today, and they said somebody told them they wished a zombie apocalypse would occur so they could blast some zombie heads off. I told the person who told me, I wished that a zombie apocalypse would happen so I could do the same thing (no sense in making a zombie plan unless you want a apocalypse or think it will happen). Anybody else want a zombie apocalypse to occur so they could kill some zombies and everything related to that? Or am I just messed up and need to be in an insane asylum (actually I was staying in one the other week on a church mission trip, rather the basement of an insane asylum).
