i think this sort of research should be banned totally.. in my veiw its wrong. why cant us humans just leave things like this alone. what right have we got to play with the natural order.. 😡

Quite so Der.

Canpark … you may be right only if what you mean is that global warming is making the weather patterns more radical – but not if you are trying to say temperatures generally are higher – globally! It’s friggin freezing here in NZ, one of the worst (cold, snow, wet, etc.) Junes on record (worst in 20 years or something like that) and July not shaping up to be much better.

So if you do mean that global warming is creating wilder weather patterns (hotter, colder, windier, etc.) then I’ll perhaps agree with you.

try and explain why the Polar ice caps are melting so rapidly then, global warming is also a natural thing, it has happend many times during Earths history, the trouble is now us humans are speeding up the process, what used to take many thousands of years to take place, now takes a few 10s of years. freak weather is a part of global warming..

my brother and i used to do this sort of thing when we where kids, wow this really takes me back.. trouble is with me i would go for personal preferences apart from the most cost effective or capable.. so my airforce would be…

3 sqns, 70 aircraft. Su-27 Flankers.. probabley go for used examples, though refurbished.

2 sqns, 50 aircraft. F-16 vipers.. refurbed used aircraft..
both types used mainly for air defence but the viper sqns would have a strike capability.

2 sqns, 50 aircraft.. Su-24 fencer, main strike asset.

3 sqns, 70 aircraft. BAE Hawk 200, for the close support role

1 sqn, 25 aircraft. C-130 Hercules, transport

4 or 5 aircraft… IL-76 Midas tankers, also 6 Hawkeye AWACS, 10 An-26, light transport, about 60 trainer types.. shorts tucano, Hawk,… about 70 various helicopters.. possibly.. Mil-17 for transport, 4 or 5 Mil-6 for heavy transport.. 25 Mil-24 for battlefeild operations..

with this airforce i think my nation would be well resepcted and feared.. 😀 😀 😉

there is some weird people around.. i hope the Mods have locked him up in a padded cell.. 😀 😀 😀

them eyes are just full of mischief.. our little Smudge is 9 months old now, she is a right little sod, she attacks enything that moves, even the poor dog… 😀

this weird looking beast got the Boot not long after she flown for the first time… 😀 😀 😀

Space is big,you just wont believe how vastly hugely mind-bogglingly big it is.I mean you may think its a long way down the road to the chemists,but that’s just peanuts to space…….
Mr D adams 😀

oh yes its very big… just to show how big space is… light takes about 8 mins to reach us from the Sun, our nearest Star.. the next nearest star to us, light takes over 4 years to reach us.. our sun is about 93 million miles away by the way…
another strange fact… the Sun is 400 times bigger in size then our Moon, but our Moon is 400 times closer.. that is why they both look the same size to us… sorry im boring you now…. 😀 😀 😀
