a) He never said that.

The Russians have lots of experience with not making it to space without things blowing up mostly thanks to their Briz M upper stage. The old Blok D did that a lot as well. Still, 99 times out of 100 if a rocket doesn’t make it to space it’s because it expended all of its energy at once.

Nobody cares.

1972 Dodge Charger

I’ll agree with you on Dodge, but that’s just the name of the game with MOPAR: if you find that you’re doing something right, stop it. Ford has had their sports car racing program on the back burner for the most part, up until the last few years anyway. Next year will be interesting, though.

VIR does it right. The only way to get to it is through North Carolina.

This is a Dodge that has almost certainly been driven hard its entire life. These cars aren’t Honda or Toyota reliable even when you go easy on them. This is a fun car, but not $4,200 worth of fun.

Puma.

Wouldn’t be the first time. Ford incorrectly named the 2015 Ford Mustang SVO the Mustang EcoBoost.

It’s a shame what Factory Five did to the 818 front end when they came out with a coupe version.

I’m aware of those, but sea gliders only work well in deep open waters.

I can’t believe that something only three feet long would have a long enough range to be useful.

Things have most definately changed, especially after I left. The US presence on the peninsula is very reduced these days. 2nd BCT, 2ID deployed to Iraq in 2004 and then rotated to Ft. Lewis with the 3rd BCT. Just last month, Iron Brigade was deactivated with its role being replaced by rotational brigades. HHC, 2ID is…

I was there in 2003 so I know the ROK army just as well as you do. While the ROK lacks manpower, they - like the US military - rely on force multipliers to even things out. There have been a great number of conflicts over the past few decades that have shown a smaller but far better equipped, coordinated, and supplied…

In any scenario of a war between North and South the North would lose every time. The only variable at play is how much damage can the North do to the South before it collapses. The North has a massive amount of very heavy artillery that is heavily entrenched and bunkered along their end of the DMZ. They have massive…

There is a severe lack of Cessna warbirds in here.

From what I’ve been reading from some of the other commenters Vermont has had a bit of a lackadaisical attitude about safety inspections up to this point. I’d wager that the DA has some sort of agenda and he’s making an example out of the mechanic. He’s probably up for re-election next year and is trying to get this…

You can’t get charged with manslaughter in a lawsuit. These are criminal charges that are being thrown at the mechanic.

To translate Nathan Tepstra’s post into non-pilot English, the airspace around this particular airfield has a control tower but it doesn’t get busy enough to warrant its own radar. Air traffic controllers at these types of airports (typically refered to as Class D airfields because of the classification of the…

Why? Did he run over your dog with his Camaro? Or are you a Ford guy?
