And what is your background? The company I work for is a sole source subcontractor for the 787 and also for Sikorsky.

I wouldn’t say made, they are assembled in Everett. Boeing doesn’t “make” anything, they only assemble. All components are outsourced to other companies.

Sikorsky has offloaded commercial airframe manufacturing to Czech Republic, Turkey, India, and China. Do don’t think that other companies can’t do the same thing.

I can’t comment on the airplane industry but I do work in the helicopter industry and I can say that they can outsource helicopters to other countries. MD Helicopters has their airframes built in Mexico. Sikorsky has outsourced airframes to Czech Republic, Turkey, India, and China.

Philly sucks if you have to find a gas station to fill up the rental car.

Guadalajara and Mexico City. I wonder if they do Mexico City because the Mexican Consulate is in Natomas?

Every time I’ve flown to DFW, the plane always lands on the runway opposite the terminal and spend the next 20-30 minutes taxing all the way around the airport.

Or don’t fly out of Terminal A.

The food in Terminal B is pretty good. Terminal A sucks though.

So he likes to move his stick up and down...

Wrong analysis there. Van Riessen forced Cueff onto the apron where she lost control and went wide leaning on Van Riessen all the way to the edge of the track.

Lance Dopestrong was an average cyclist before he got cancer. He was a cocky a-hole right when he turn pro. He boasted how he can win every stage of the Tour DuPont and then got his ass handed to him. He won the occasional one day race just like everyone else. Then there’s the controversy of bribing guys to let him…

There’s a reason that tech sgt is in the Air Force, he can’t even hurt a bee. I bet everyone wanted to see the bees light on fire. I would have jumped in and fired up the engine while he was making the phone call.

My AR-15 would leave Lars in a bloody heap on a battlefield.

Experience is more important than formal education.

To be the fastest would involve paying the Russians for a ride on the Soyuz. You didn’t say anything about being in the water.

Depends on what you are trying to do with the replica gun. Having an empty cylinder doesn’t look real.

A good journalist would have mentioned that it was just a replica of a gun as mentioned in the TSA post. But this is Gawker, we can’t have real facts.

Stop sending packages with bike courier services, problem solved.

To further reduce cost of racing, pretty soon we won’t even need a physical vehicle. Each team will create a virtual model and race on a virtual race course.
