  1. C-32 in the new paint job.
  2. It sounds like he was implying he believe in aliens. Not that he has facts and can prove they exist. Which he clarifies in a follow up interview: "Statistically, the universe is so vast that the odds are good there's life out there. But the distances between solar systems are so great that the chances we've been visited by aliens is low, and I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!"
  3. Iran gets some new toys.
  4. Question on multiple VA loans: Currently living in an assumed VA condo. Looking to upgrade into a house with grandiose plans of renting the condo. I didn't think I can assume another VA loan (unless they give up their entitlement) but the agent says I can and just need to stay at/under the max loan amount cap. Thoughts?
  5. Agreed. And at the very least, now Russia can't launder their oil through Venezuela via their shadow tanker fleet. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the actual reason for the entire operation.
  6. I'm glad to see Venezuela hasn't turned into complete anarchy...but Delcy RodrĂ­guez (former VP) becoming intern President and reports of them going around hunting out US sympathizers doesn't seem like it's a good thing. And if Maduro was a drug smuggler wouldn't his VP also be complicit? Not sure keeping the communist/socialists in power is the go to move here...but what the hell: "Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."
  7. Fox NewsSomali daycare in Minnesota broken into, key documents st...A Somali-run daycare in Minneapolis was allegedly broken into amid ongoing fraud investigations. Important employee and child documents reportedly missing. Shouldn't we feel bad for these poor immigrants just trying to make a life? And, on top of that, they were robbed!!! Because of all the cash and valuables stored at a daycare...a perfectly normal place to break into.
  8. Comic Sans is where it's at.
  9. Investigators found: Both forward and aft lugs of the left pylon’s aft mount had fractured The spherical bearing’s outer race had sheared away Multiple fatigue cracks around the lug bores Additional overstress fractures mark the final break In short, fatigue cracks had been growing inside the mount. Under heavy take-off loading, the weakened structure could no longer hold the engine. The right engine’s mounts also fractured—but only on ground impact, not in flight. https://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/Documents/DCA26MA024%20Preliminary%20Report.pdf
  10. Glad to see my airline/union assisting UPS/IPA in their time of mourning and assist bringing Captain Diamond home to rest.
  11. And the Airbus A300/A310, A330, and Boeing 767. Oh, and in a ton of military marine applications (Spruance, Kidd, Oliver Hazard Perry, Ticonderoga). The CF6 class of engine is all over the place.
  12. Glad they are okay! Speculation time: Prop looks feathered and the wing damage was reportedly after the fact and hit a pole during the ELP. So...is this a "we fucked with the proven* PT-6 design" issue?
  13. UAL 737 has same number of kills as the F-22.
  14. Paywall. But, of topic, I'm curious what VIP aircraft it is aiming to replace...
