PTIDs.

Do remember that the E-2D can do just dandy in the BACN role, and has many of the capabilities of the more secret-squirrel USAF aircraft.

Fun Fact: The speed of RF transmissions, say, from a police vehicle to a dispatch centre then shortly to a helicopter, is exactly the same in the EU that it is in the US.

After the verdict, the Oregon State Police released a statement as reported by the Register-Guard, saying their office “is disappointed with the (trial) outcome and feels the actions of our troopers clearly did not violate established procedures or tactics.

Huh. Even my Focus has a proper handbrake. And for that, Ford, I thank you.

Some of my UNREP experiences. The first three are from one and the last is from one about a month later. Note the water washing off the hangar gunwhales in the third picture; the wave action is pretty severe for two 80,000+ ton ships 140ft from each other.
