What assurances though are there that the one in charge of the NHTSA will have some stake or investment in the competency of the agency? It is not like the NHTSA can go out of business for not performing its service correctly.

The Lola B12-60 with Dyson blue and white. One of my top 3 best looking racers.

If they do the job, then I see no problem with that.

Screw it, I give 2 thumbs up.

There is another in the Boeing family that is exceptionally long-lived.

I propose that the Uniform Code of Military Justice be expanded to Civilian officials responsible for making military procurement decisions.

In the event of a belly or emergency landing, an airplane would dump its fuel. How would a larger battery plane dump its battery?

Honda did some OK V8s that would be nice in a road car.

Noted now GTFO.

I am honest and you are overstated in rhetoric.

Obviously it wasn’t Elon Musk because his team is actually competent in making an electric car with fit and finish that is not non-existent and has a decent range.

This is a dangerously 9/10 state of being.

When I can get at least one good experience or memory from that infernal car, I will be inclined to believe you.

Checkmate.

You are right to say that there have been a plethora of successful multi role aircraft in the past but you have defeated an argument I have not made. Which of those planes you mentioned had their air frame compromised to accommodate a VTOL fan? None of them.

So many problems could have been avoided with 2 separate air frames with common components with the USMC fighter being being better optimized for VTOL or STOVL and the other being better suited to being a conventional fighter for the Navy and Air Force..

Is Bay turning into Captain Archer?

Difficult to un-see the b29 in it.

It would be a lucrative move to step in to replace Takata.

I will say on your last point. The amazing thing about flight 93 is that there was nothing amazing about it. They were regular people and the only difference between them and the other victims is that they knew what the hijackers going to do and fought back.
