Landing on a carrier is impressive. So is delivering a bomb on target, or shooting a target out of the sky. These are important milestones. But these accomplishments are comparable to shadow boxing or using a punching bag. It’s a lot different when you go up against another boxer. Far, far, far different. Until that…

To be fair, it did sort of come across as a shot at the Dems, with the implication that a Republican presidency would set things right. If that was the case, I would disagree. If I misinterpreted it, then I tip my hat.

How much time was left? Like 8 minutes? And that tied the game. A good team can overcome adversity. It was a major screw-up to be sure, but they had time to get it right. If they couldn't do that, then they didn't deserve to win.

Fantastic images- the old bird never looked so good!!

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy...

I think that the amazing performance improvement brought about by adding the merlin was more a pleasant surprise, than…

I liked the idea that my GM had a warranty like that. Not sure what I'll do next...

"Despite clearly being part of the power-train,... it wasn't covered by the power-train warranty."

Airplane was one of the funniest movies ever.

okay

Different technique, but does exactly what pegboard does.

I think you're exaggerating.

Okay; hold on there.
Alternatives? To my pegboard?
Surely you mean additions or enhancements??

I remember the 1970s being full of new aircraft introductions and lots of design activity for the future. Now it seems to be a lot of retiring aircraft and shutting things down...

I don't often do this, but it's Friday.
I hereby award you the FULL 5 POINTS for two important things - the Ren & Stimpy reference (obviously), but also making is a SPACE Ren & Stipmy reference.
Well done!!

This one's very Foss-esque
