how much exactly was labor to install that battery? I worked for years at one of the parts stores that offers "free battery installation" I want to know how much money I could have been making installing batteries for dumb people who bought expensive cars and should not afford them. And 230 isn't too far off what a…

No, technically it is a space craft. It operates (barely) above the altitude that is considered "space" this makes it a spacecraft, albeit a sub-orbital one. Its a technicality but its a valid one.

excellent choice! I forgot this thing existed till you posted it.

Awesome article. I had no idea this ever took place (then again I was 10 years old and other things were fore front in my brain) I keep forgetting just how massive CVNs are then I see pictures of people and equipment on their decks.

Very cool idea but I don't see how they would ever overcome difficulties displaying an omnipresent perspective. When looking at the same portion of the cabin bulkhead from two different angles (let's say one from the front looking towards the tail and one from the middle looking out) which image is displayed? Unless…

A lot of it is just the environment they were filmed in, but I prefer the grace of the battered prize-fighter look of the B-1(I LOVE the B-1 Lancer, the underslung engines and variable geometry wings... It's like a tomcat that will Ef-up the whole damn neighborhood not just your house) especially as it drowns away…

Oh man! I've been waiting for you to do a big article on the A-10! One of the most BadAss planes if anyone asks me. Awesome article as always. Glad someone somewhere had the common sense to deploy such a perfectly designed asset into a situation that is pretty much its ideal operating parameter.

Awesome! thanks for the link! Having a name to google helps a lot.

Okay.....guilty as charged.

Amazing piece! I had to read it twice to make sure I got it all. I try not to bring polotics into these kinds of forums, but I'm curious if anyone knows. You write "The Obama Administration missed a golden opportunity " and use Obama Administration several times in your articles. Is it someone within the the…

so we have you to thank for that one! Good Job, and Thank You Sir.

and doing some more looking, you may be closer to correct than I thought, and I apologize, though it depends on Ferrari being written as a Font (which is subject to a whole freaking ream of legal code involving copyright and trademark law) or as Typeface (which isn't). If its a typeface then he's pretty much covered…

I think you've got it a little backwards. Selling Purrari merchandise would make it 100% illegal with out consent from Ferrari. Simply existing as a not for profit or not for reproduction item still retains its status as a legal matter open to interpretation. Where issue lies that the name Ferrari and the font that…

that is an amazing picture! Hopefully ill get beautiful scenery on my coast to coast flight in October.

Purrari is a parody and is covered under fair use. Using Ferrari's font to spell Purrari is a violation of trademark. I hope the difference is clearer now, its not what is said that is the issue, its the font that is used that Ferrari is mad about.

oh man that's awesome. Canada better watch out or some Russian soldiers might get "lost" in Canada. After all, there's only an ice sheet between them and I hear that its easy to get lost up around the north pole.

unfortunately not. Purrari is legal under parody laws, however the use of Ferrari font is trademarked, and that's where he has gotten himself in trouble. Had he used anything else he would be golden, as such he is in violation of trademark law.

unfortunately Ferrari does have a legal leg to stand on. The Ferrari font is trademarked. His Purrari uses it without their permission. If he had stayed clear of that he could have told Ferrari to go shove it. At that point Ferrari probably would never sell him a new one.

i think its more that the trademarked Ferrari font was used more so than prancing kitty. If you spelt Volvo in the ferrari font i guarantee you that Ferrari would send you a letter.
