Have you another link that’s not a facepage? I am not a member.
I was for 2 days, seems nobody was interested in what I had for breakfast and I had no friends 🙁 I also breached several user protocols by wearing geography teacher glasses and having hair sticking out my ears and had to resign.

I like the blurry reinactment, all that control column wiggling and button pushing, they need to get better camera men that can focus a camera for reinactments 😀
Landing with one wing off with no rudder deflection, full flap down on the good wing and the fuse spoiler fully open? Does anybody else think this isn’t quite right?
One engine outlet was on full power for opposite assymetric thrust to help no wing, that looks right but the rest just doesn’t look right.

Monoplane, doesn’t it make you wonder about the rest of the claims when they quote such figures? At a guess you would think a modern computor controlled fuel injected V8 of that power would use maybe 70 or 80 litres an hour at 65%? A comparative aero engine, say a 540 Lyc developing 300 HP would use up to 100 litres an hour or more at full noise and the Texan mob claim 30 litres an hour for similar power?

Generally after doing a zillion hours you start to get a bit responsable. As I said when your young, ten foot tall and bullet proof things can get a bit carried away. Most who have done a zillion hours are a bit wiser.

For the last two posters, why do most civilised countries not have the same problem as the US?

What does the actual 2nd amendment state? Is the interpretation that everybody has a right to a weapon or everybody has a right to be armed in defence of a nation? NRA has showed just how out of touch they are by suggesting armed employees for schools.
