Debt is debt right? Whether its going to defeat one of our long time "enemies" or its going to do a study on the long term harm to the mosquito population in Dubuque county California, it's still debt. It's not like adding to the debt is anything new for eiher side when they are in charge.

Were you bitching just as much when we maxed out the credit cards every other year for less consequential shit?

FAA confirmed 1000' separation at stop. Sounds like the ground radar saved the day. Next step for greater safety has to be some sort of automated communication to the aircraft in conflict versus an alert that relies on a human to hear/see the alert, then identify the conflict, then communicate to the conflicted aircraft?- Today in hypocrisy...

Thats the guy who prevented Guam from tipping over right?- The Next President is...
Thats what I'm wondering. He wants to run and "they" don't want him to. Do they tear him down this way though? Seems there are easier less messy for everyone ways.- The new airline thread

So why wasn't he drafted higher?- College Football
Crap shoot indeed. Look at Purdy. Mediocore big12 qb drafted dead last who's now been starter for 5 wins with San Fran.- College Football
NFL has LOADS of film on him now as well. Taking less of a gamble possibly than on the flash in the pan early draft guys. Might see some more on the fence guys sticking around due to the NIL.- WTF? (**NSFW**)

Very early days (first couple weeks) Russian AF strikes and caps very uncoordinated but had giant numbers/tech advantage. UKR air defenses were entirely suppressed on teh ground and were forced to continually maneuver forcing UKR fighters to fly in extremely low to get under RUS fighters. Rest of it explained how much of a shit show the RUS military plan or lack of plan was. No comms and couldn't spell joint. basically this white paper https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/special-resources/russian-air-war-and-ukrainian-requirements-air-defence- WTF?

Hah. It's required but just ease into it.- The new airline thread
$50? You're one hell of a deal finder.- The new airline thread
Currently $80 roundtrip london to paris mid next month. Probably can get a bit cheaper if scheduled right.- The new airline thread
Lived in UK for 8 years. Was pumped to give trains a go travelling locally and across in Europe. We went north up to scottland and west to wales many times but could never get it anywhere close to worth it cost/time wise. It was ALWAYS much cheaper to fly from Stanstead up to EDI or Aberdeen and could be done from door to door in about 5 hours versus the minimum of 12. We did the Eurostar once to Paris but drove or flew the other times. Eurostar wasn't that much cheaper than flights but was a bit more convenient with the minimal security. I can def see it working for certain city to city connections here and its crazy that it hasn't been done yet. There are lots of cities where the "local" airport doesn't have many non-stop options so a 2 hour car ride can be justified for a cheaper direct flight but then you add in car gas/parking/time and it starts to not be worth it. Connections in that regard I can def see catching on.- Russian Ukraine shenanigans
Pretty incredible that UKR apparently hasn't lost a single HIMARS yet. Looks like they hit another target the other night with anywhere from 100-500 KIA and another big weapons stockpile. - The new airline thread
