And here I thought a Ute was an Aussie El-Camino

See, there I thought you were going to make a rational argument then you said that word and now you have no credibility. Good day.

I got stopped for doing 104 in a 65. I have no way of knowing if that was right because the speedometer only went up to 85 and it was clicking on the peg. Anyway, the officer wrote me for doing 89 (24 over) so it would just be a normal ticket. You bet your ass I paid the ticket.

I think you missed something on the Tanker section. Your own story says that the 747 super tanker can drop 20,000 GALLONS. The DC-10 tanker drops 100,000 POUNDS, which would be in the neighborhood of 12,000 gallons. So the DC-10 holds LESS water or retardant than the 747, which is as expected given the relative…

The news here is that Digg still exists.

Did you not watch the first couple of minutes of the video?

#5 isn't a Colt. It is a S&W. Might be a 3913, hard to tell the scale, but looks like a single stack.

Interesting how the Army has no problem with warrant officers flying helicopters.

I thought CM took this feature out a while ago. There were some long discussion threads on it. In any case, you can get it without changing the whole image depending on your version of Android. Look up PDroid. You'll need root.

Don't know who started it, but this has been supported in various ways in Android for several years now. I don't know how far back it goes but I had this capability three years ago. At the time I think you had to root the phone to get it to work. There are several discussions going on about the ups and downs of…

How long until some private citizen hacks this and starts tormenting other drivers?

It is actually a B model (USMC), but your other statements are, of course, correct.

I thought it was one half wavelength.

There are a number of situations where this is beneficial.

It must be removed before starting the engine. Which is why it is painted red, so it stands out when they do the walk around.

It appears to be inside an anechoic chamber. There are two primary kinds, the ones that prevent sound from bouncing around and the kind that prevent electro-magnetic waves from bouncing around. I'd guess this is the latter.

The red piece is likely a plug that covers the air inlet so that nothing accidentally gets dropped in there and then damages the engine when it is started.

First? What about the D-21 drone built in the 1960 s?

Yes, but it doesn't NEED one, as evidenced by the fact that the US will not be using them. Which is why your statement was "not exactly correct" instead of completely incorrect.

Not exactly correct. The US doesn't use ski-jump type carriers. When loaded it requires a rolling start, but will still leave the ground in a much shorter distance than the other variants.
