Hard to say without knowing the facts. Could be pilot error. Could have had an engine failure and tried an auto rotation to the water. Really hard to know why it happened. Just happy that the pilots survived the accident.

Just wahat detractors have noted, that “stealth” aircraft leaves a heat signature in flight that SCREAMS HIT ME WITH A MISSILE I AM RIGHT HERE! Add on ordinance and the stealth feature are rendered useless as well the speed, fuel consumption and dogfighting capabilities tank. Stealth is what it relies on and putting…

Yep, as a intelligent pirate, all they need to do is disable the ship. That is easily done physically. Which is well within their means and capabilities. Without a crew, they can redirect it, plunder the ship, strip it down. If I were a pirate, I could could in a number of ways take huge advantage to such a system.…

The problems:

I posted an article with quotes from his auto biography and court information and it was deemed below the standards. If the truth is so unacceptable for a post, what does that say who he really is and how morally sad this situation really is?

Not BS, here are the facts:

Toyota’s have been used for decades in the middle east and South America due to their reliability. So much so Janes Military catalog list them under military vehicles.

I received a broken neck from a car accident in 2002. The damage was both to the spinal cord and nerve branches. I have since been hit from behind in auto accidents worsening the condition to the point I have to monthly see a pain specialist.

1959 Buick reminds me of the Futurama Werecar.

Now the disclaimer: Must be said quickly as possible in a monotone voice:

These girls had a criminal record for stealing vehicles in the past according to other sources.

Hey, while your at it, there is technology to produce laser born fighters. Of course, the cost would be even more outragious than the outragious cost of the F-35 program, but heck... we are going from an Air Force of 7,500 aircraft to 600 to 700 to get the F-35. We could get one heck of a sci-fi like aircraft that…

The US Army has a large helicopter force with airfields. Same for the Marines. THAT part is taken care of. Transfer the cost of the A-10 program from the USAF budget since they have already shown a lack of judgement in trying to shut it down to the other branches. Give that budget and responsibility to those that…

Frankly, the top reason the USAF has wanted to get rid of this program is, it’s mission is to support other branches at the expanse of the Air Force. The simple and smart decision would be for the Marines and Army to take over the program for CAS support. In doing so, it would in the long run help those two branches…

A combination of a slide slip and crabbing.

I was at a Toledo Mud Hens Game with a scout troop and a ball came up over the edge of the field to me. Suddenly I was surrounded by scouts wanting the ball. I did an elaborate eany meany miny moe count with them and gave the ball to one of the kids. What I did not know was that the infield camera was on me and I was…

So, the summation of the article is that P.T. Barnum is right, You can’t please everyone all the time”. Some despised him, some thought the world of him. As an 18 year old, he lacked perfect humility a bit, something many Ivy League student demonstrate at that age. There is a rumor that cannot be substantiated but…

The problem being that the USAF has been gutted to about 10% of the numbers from 20 years ago, while our enemies have been building their forces.

It would be cheaper to make the F-16 V or other variant, ot he F-15 silent Eagle, which has stealth and battle field networking designed into the aircraft.

The issue is really time, lining up third party vendors to make the necessary production parts. The USAF estimated along with Boeing that such an effort would take 10 years from the go ahead.
