I love the fantasy world that the ‘stealth is obsolete’ crowd lives in, where China and Russia have developed all kinds of fantastical radars and drones and other cutting-edge technology to defeat stealth aircraft. All of which are seemingly completely unknown to the people who actually build our aircraft and radar

The B-52 is doing that job just fine. No sense fixing what isn’t broken when there’s limited resources available.

I like to think I’m pretty smart but this is some high class uber ultra top notch engineering

Thanks, Jake! It really is amazing knowing how a turbine can work in those conditions. You’d think it’d put the combustion right out! Unreal.

Tyler, watching those pilots fly in to the eyewall, they hit what I’d call a “wall of water”. How do those turboprops stay running with that amount of water going through the turbine?

Slower speed for gathering storm data, longer time in the air on a tank, engines better able to cope with hail than jets.

P-3’s are fantastic at flying low in high humidity near water.

Be safe guys.

Sorry, but Phoenix/Austin yellow is the bomb. Anybody else who nominates it should be removed from the site.

Conservatives are gonna have a field day. Planned Parenthood now directly linked to terrorism.

“The condoms-turned-into-balloons...explode prematurely”.

Love that turn.

1969 Lincoln Continental... current bid price is $2500. And there is no reserve, it’s a less desirable 2dr coupe and since it’s not a dealer, the price won’t be grossly inflated... which means it you will probably be able to get it for $10K or maybe a bit less.

“worthwhile” you missed that part. Mr Rogoways reporting for FA is pretty devoid of political speculation. Your ceaseless rehashing of the same line over and over again does nothing but prove yourself a fool. Though I’m somewhat inclined to agree with your sentiments on the current US political situation, your

If you have nothing worthwhile to add, please go away.

Ha, no. But sure! I’d guess Tavarish is a little to the right of most Gawker Media employees actually. I like Bernie though. Even if he doesn’t become president, he seems like a Good Dude. Also I miss VT.

I disapprove of your listicle.

Influx of Trump supporters in 5, 4, 3, 2...

I’d go find a gif that shows someone missing the point, but I’ve got better things to do.
