RE: Anti terror war-Isrealis style.
you are not lying your arse off flanker, and i am sorry to hear that this happenned to some people in your family. HOWEVER. They really should have known the risks and frankly it would turn out to be a correct action to take by the armed forces, because, although it turned out to be innocent civilians, at the time it occurred NI was a very dodgy place, and your relatives should have been fully aware of the security situation.
Once again, flanker, i am very sorry to hear of your loss in this way, and it is very unfortunate that any civilians are ever harmed or killed in security operations.
This is the main reason that terrorist/paramilitary groups should be dealt with extremley quickly, because unfortunately those bastards use their own people, the people they are so called fighting for, as human shileds to cower behind. How can they ever believe that they are fighting for right??

RE: Anti terror war-Isrealis style.
well quite frankly….if governments took out these threats at the very beginning, and didnt let them linger they would be allot more trouble free. If the government had decided to get rid of the 20 or so idiots at the top of todays irish paramilitaries, we would have a lot less problem coming to a political and much nicer solution to NI. I mean protestant terrorists aswell as catholic.
Perhaps dropping a paveway through a block of flats was some kind of overkill, and perhaps the damage could have been lessened by a TOW from a cobra( as they prefer this weapon to the heavier warhead of the hellfire) but you dont know the outcome of the risk assessment. maybe all of the sams didnt come through by ship? maybe the radius encompassing the TOW kill range was deemed too dangerous. Or maybe the israeli’s want to send their own message.
Its time to get serious and stop pansy arsing around with terrorist groups. It has been time, for a long time.
And yes if it was my job to remove from this earth some of the scum in a number of countries, knowing what they had done, i would have no problems pulling the trigger.
I do not go around with blinkers on. And this is not any kind of extremism, its honest truthfulness.

I say the israelis are only doing things other countries are too SCARED to do themselves.
good luck to them, we could all benefit from tactics such as that

RE: She is still stuck!
according to the report he ‘ran to the bridge’ so it would appear he wasnt on the bridge, and therefore not solely responsible for the safety of the boat.
at least there was some decent reason as to why the OOW turned into wind. lynxes can take off in forty knot winds, but isnt it nice when you dont have to work quite that hard??

RE: Landing on water
yes, granted, on a calm day I would definitley try to land along the swell, although I suppose it takes a fair bit of wind with an air liner to have much effect……6 of one and half a dozen of the other.
so, what precisley, wysiwig, are the exact ditching order as noted in the FRC’s for the aircraft you fly???

RE: Landing on water
thankyou wysiwig for confirming the information written in my previous large post. I did mention that the engines would only hold for a very short while, but their size and the speed of the aircraft would still make a significant decelerative force.
As for aligning for a landing along the troughs of the waves( as you would a plowed field), I would have thought it would have been better to take into consideration the direction and force of the wind(flying along the troughs would put you at maximum crosswind component).

Greekdude, I’m pleased to say that I havent quoted there, but is a simple reasoning of the forces and problems faced by the pilot, and engineer in designing a crashworthy aircraft.
You pay your money……you takes your choice.
