The tripe above to distract you form the continued and consistent lawfare being waged by the left. Let's review: 1. The Biden DOJ #3 left to join the NY Attorney General's office (unheard of), and ended up giving the opening argument against trump. The rest of the trail I won't even get into...even MSNBC admits it will be overturned, but the DNC got the "convicted felon" sound bite they wanted for the election. 2. Today in the Hunter Biden trial the FBI presented the laptop as VERIFIED evidence meaning it WAS Hunter's laptop. Still waiting for a single one of the former Intelligence Officials to apologize and admit they were wrong....or for the big tech firms that suppressed the story to admit they were wrong....or the media...I know, it will never happen, just a wave of the hand. 3. The Attorney General testified today and defended all of his actions including trying to hold back the actual tapes of the Biden interview even though the transcripts are out. The official DOJ reason...the tapes could be used to make deep fakes. WTF? 50+ years of making political speeches, there is enough out there to make deep fakes...they are not even needed they way this demented idiot speaks these days. 4. Today Biden took executive action on the border...after claiming for years there was nothing he could do and he didn't have the power...oh and after reversing Trump's border order on day one in office. Anyone want to address testimony from Mayorkas saying our border is secure...nothing to see here. I would invite you all to read this idiotic executive order...it is a complete farce. Republicans are NOT perfect...but for F's sake Democrats are insane.

This. We cannot tax our way out of this mess. Our current debt is approaching $267,000 per taxpayer. Or about 30% more than last year's GDP. You'd have to have a 100% federal tax rate on absolutely everything, not just those who currently pay taxes, for an entire year and we still would be in debt. To say it another way, the entire US population would have to give all their income for an entire year to the Feds. And state, county, and local governments would have to also work for free for the year. And that would still only pay off 69% of our debt.

Storage facilities seem up to par

FY25 NDAA markup includes.... https://www.businessinsider.com/republicans-move-strip-security-clearances-from-hunter-biden-letter-signees-2023-6 .. to effectively strip security clearances from any intelligence or defense official who signed on to an October 2020 statement that raised the question of whether the release of Hunter Biden's emails was part of a Russian disinformation campaign. As part of a much-larger bill funding US defense, Republicans on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense proposed prohibiting any funding to grant, renew, or maintain a security clearance for any official who signed the statement. More than 50 former intelligence officials, including former CIA Directors Mike Hayden, Leon Panetta, and John Brennan, signed the letter raising questions about the then newly published New York Post story concerning emails from Biden's laptop.

But a start. Only 16 months to go and we've parked about 25% of the fleet.

Wife: sends me lake cabins "oooh look, I almost think we can afford it" Me: oh hey, a fighter pilot W: wait, what? how could you tell that? Me: amongst other nondescript military memorabilia, a bottle of JW on the shelf W: ...

Hovering is God like. Can't blame a fast mover for wanting to pull into a 50' hover and yell ropes, ropes, ropes (sts). Besides, everyone is doing it at KIKR.

Yeah I know that. I was replying to the guy that said he hasn't heard of anybody getting a B-1 from T-1 or T-38 in the last year. He also said the air force isn't giving any to new pilots and didn't specify base/upt program.

does anyone with half a brain really think F-16s are gonna make a dent in this war?

I wonder what the nature of those offenses were on that list. I find it shameful that collegiate athletes would engage in underage drinking, marijuana consumption, premarital coitus, hooliganism, theft of Christmas lawn ornaments, fighting, speeding, truancy, and other various malfeasance. If only they’d have kept their noses clean they could have gone to OTS and become below average pilots like this one guy I know. Hypothetically speaking, of course.

The best college football teams have a good percentage of the starters with a rap sheet. If a team isn't having to bail a few players out each season, they likely aren't winning either. Not an endorsement, just a fact.

Easy to say flaring is stupid when your landing gear struts are built like artillery barrels. Also in a normal approach to landing, or come-down, does that mean Navy bro's lay some rigorous pipe atop their shipmates aboard?

But back on Subject of “GA Aircraft Flown”…. Bought myself my last GA Toy🤡
