At a guess an anti aircraft shell passing close to it would be enough to disable it .

That’s true of any aircraft though.

I think topspeed’s aircraft have bigger problems than getting shot down. Getting in the air in the first place would be the main one.

Solar powered AWACs or fighter carriers or passenger aircraft flying at over 100,000ft is simply not feasible.

Surely a responsible breeding policy would mean that the animal wasn’t born in the first place and not having to kill it when it was nearly two years old?

From 34 km the fighter can attack enemy at supersonic speed ( mach 3 max ) and reach an airstrip in Finland…without using the engines at all. As long as the mother ship flys above Finland.

Mach 3 without engines? Straight down then. 🙂

AWACs aircraft require lots of power, cooling, carry large radar arrays with the associated drag and now they have to carry aircraft with all the associated systems and have to be pressurized to operate at 111,000ft!

Your solar powered aircraft are interesting and innovative but you are well and truly in the realms of fantasy now.

The point of carrying a fighter up to 34km (111000ft) would be what exactly? Are the fighters solar powered as well?

How can anyone with “wisdom” equate liberalism of any kind, even the US kind, with being in jail?

Was he joking? Or being ironic?

I suspect not.

Wasn’t he the one that questioned the validity of President Obama’s birth certificate?

Anyway, Sheriff Arpaio seems to struggle with the concept of being “liberal”.

If food is still in the supermarket then it will have been keep refrigerated and handled correctly. Once it’s in a bin you have no idea how it’s been kept . Unless Tesco start refrigerating their dustbins.

We do the same. We wouldn’t chance anything beyond a “Use by” date though and picking up cheap food in the supermarket is rather different to rummaging through the bins. Especially when the weather is warmer. Still, each to their own.
