Yes they are frustrated. I was breezing through their forum Saturday and one of their fans posted that Salah stated Queen Elizabeth was out two to four weeks.

The A-10 is an extremely vulnerable platform with any basic anti air defense. It almost demands total elimination of even simple shoulder mounted capability. HARM is a great system, but being used in a greatly diminished capability is certainly not a game changer for the A-10. The A-10 is a magnet for very simple anti air capability.

I was flying a 767 for the other airline that lost two airplanes that day. Diverted back to San Francisco. I'll never forget the ACARS printer messages alerting me to the situation, and trying to verify I was still in command, or being the only one on the various ATC frequencies with absolutely no mention of anything from them. Then landing and being followed by about 30 vehicles down the runway.

I'm not sure the use of HARM can be associated with the A-10. Unless it has been significantly modified, the A-10 does not carry HARM. HARM has been used, in a greatly diminished capability, by Ukrainian MIG 29's. To fully use it's capabilities, HARM requires rather advanced internal avionics. It can be fired, as I said, with greatly diminished capability in a really basic mode.

Again, I wish her no ill. But she was certainly ignorant. Grossly ignorant. She was puking out what her North Vietnamese handlers were telling her, which bas bullstuff. Most of the men I served with above the O4 level my first cruise had been involved in that war. As a junior carrier attack pilot at that time, who was not involved in that, I had many conversations with them about target selection, rules of engagement and a host of other nonsense that went on during the Johnson/McNamara DOD led war. She was absolutely ignorant, and calling for them to be executed as murderers and war criminals in their capitol during a war with many POWs being tortured is not something something I would classify as "freedom of speech."

I strongly disagree, and my mind will not be changed. When the country is at war, going to the enemy and making ten unsolicited radio appearances calling US servicemen war criminals, murderers and suggesting they should be executed is absolutely giving comfort to the enemy. Again, I wish her no ill, but her actions were treasonous. Further, she had no idea what "US servicemen were fighting for." She was an ignorant knucklehead with a microphone, and she gave comfort to an enemy.

Weather-wise, pay attention to the dew point over the temp, which is the measure of how much moisture is in the atmosphere. Miami will be more difficult.

Please do. You post nothing that indicates anything other than political wackiness on the subjects you comment on. Certainly no knowledge, context, or awareness of real world situations, capabilities or consequences. It's like reading a child's rendering of these things. So ignore me, as you ignore reality.

Absolute politically driven lunacy. By the way, do you understand that it's not "would of," it's "would have." You have had a bad day with English.

Brexit has nothing to do with this. That decision was made to reduce idiotic restrictions and requirements that the UK would be forced to comply with. They decided against it. Wisely so. Their government has never limited these restrictions, so you you get what you get. It's going to be a tough winter for Europe, but it is the result of their own doing.

He was impeached for lying while under oath to a grand jury. When it was made so obvious, there was no way perjury from the President can be swept under the rug. His law license was suspended in Arkansas and from practicing before the Supreme Court. Of course his health care plan, the one he but Hillary in charge of until he got crushed in the mid terms over it? That's why he hired David Gergen to right the sinking ship.

She apologized for being so stupid that she was in that horrible picture. In that link she never mentioned calling US Servicemen "war criminals," and "murderers" and suggesting they deserved execution. She did that more than once in radio Hanoi programs. I wish her no ill, but she never really apologized for her treason, and aiding and abetting an enemy is the very definition of that.

Among other more serious issues, your English is not that good.

You'd feel better if you stopped reading the nonsense on this forum, especially the most recent. What this country needs is a leader. Neither Biden nor Trump has any leadership capability whatsoever. Useless duo that need to go.

Stolen. Not hijacked. Problem over.

Maybe we allow the legislative branch to strap the taxpayers with a mega expensive bill. Strange? That's the way its supposed to work, but I doubt Biden understands any of this normal governmental procedure.

It's been that way for years. The entirety of Russia is a corrupt scam. Still, they have a lot of nuclear weapons with significant range. Other than that, they have nothing.

Maybe you are simply not capable of interpreting what is said. Actually, I am quite certain you are not, but no surprise there. What I am sayin is that there is no reasonable economic metric that justifies the escalating cost of college cost. Not CPI, inflation rate,GDP. Nothing. It is simply because people are willing to pay ridiculous costs for it. That burden is a decision, and should not be the US taxpayer's debt. Placing it on the taxpayer is nothing more than bribing a demographic, and again, for the third time, should have been a decision made by our legislative branch. This man is doing nothing more than trying to buy an election.

Not sure what this really means. No surprise there. Sticking debt to the American taxpayer is common. Doing it in an industry that has absolutely no justification for it's out of economic reality inflation based on any measurable quant is nothing more than vote buying outside of the legislative process. It's a disgraceful bribe that we are paying for, and nothing more.

I "worked pretty hard." So did my wife. We worked "pretty hard" as officers in the US military. We paid back our student loans and never once thought of some way to avoid those promised responsibilities. But, this is the Biden Administration. so I agree. Let's subsidize an industry that has inflated costs far beyond any economic measure for well over a decade, without any justification or reasonable comparison. Let's remove any promissory note given to the American taxpayer, and say it isn't valid. Let's allow the American taxpayer to bear the burden of failure to comply with legal promises. Let's do it all to get votes, and far, far away from the Legislative process, which allows our representatives to decide. What a great day for America!

"71. That's the year I started this job. Bad year for libraries. Bad year for our country.... I don't judge a man by the length of his hair or the music he listens to. Rock was never my bag, but you put on a pair of shoes when you walk into the New York Public Library fella."

I am getting suspicious that you don't know what "compartmentalized" means, as you mention it in a "storage" context again. It is a further classification of data. In other words, if one has a Top Secret clearance he/she would have access to TS material that was in their area of need to know, but not all TS material in that area. Under that general level, there are other things that contain the same classification, but are not accessible to those who do not have a need to know. I have no idea what Trump is suspected of having or not returning, so I'm not sure what you mean by "if I am right." What i do know is that his status as an ex president grants him no special status or access to anything other than what he is told, and if he claims that any such items were declassified by him during his term, that would be especially strange if normal protocols weren't followed. Technically legal, but really strange and likely irresponsible if that is the claim. Again, I have no view on whether that will be the claim.

The acting president has access to compartmentalized data. Anybody who has the relevant security clearance and a need to know has such access. He is given any data he requests, but it would be senseless for anyone to request data that does not inform a decision, and they don't. Trump, as an ex president has no access beyond what they need to tell him, and I doubt that is anything. I'm sure Bush senior was informed of the Iraqi plan to kill him, because they probably increased security measure in response, but Trump has no role in anything anymore, and has no right to intel data, and certainly no right to hold currently classified info.

I have no idea what this means and I certainly have not dropped any argument. He was "compartmentalized?"
