Germans in the South ??????? I never see any here. The cleaning lady though is originally from Berlin. :p

The difference between a Harley and a Vacuum cleaner is:

The location of the dirt bag. :p

The next question would be if that particular unit had PAC-3 and if so did it try to get the HARM.

No. It tried nothing. The crew wasn’t in the van to execute any type of response. They were outside taking cover.

Some more interesting things about the 787. Because it is designed with the nth degree of effort to make it super light ( extreme effort to reduce the use of metal when ever possible in components, and eliminate the use of rivets as much as possible ) …. all kinds of things to reduce weight, combined with other things already mentioned so fuel burn/range is really good….. because of all of this super efficiency in a new design… Boeing engineers have come out and said it can never be a military tanker. The engineers have pushed the envelope so much that it has no hope of seeing that mission.

Another advantage claimed by the engineers: The skin for the most part will tolerate scratches and dings from ground equipment abusing it, that would normally stop or delay a conventional design while maintenance comes out to patch up the aircraft.

Hehehe! I find this doubly funny as my husband is a) a big Star Wars fan and b) comes from ’emel ’empsted 😀 😀 😀

I hasten to add it was not him though…and he is a cut above most other ’emel residents 🙂

And he isn’t Sith also, I assume.

Watching the super hornet program is like watching MS constantly issue patches for internet exploiter. 😉
