I love some in the article said that you have to know your own force and restrict it. BS, if someone is hurting me, I'll use anything at my disposal to keep myself and those around me safe. I had plenty of bullies in HS, fortunately for them then only used their mouths and didn't touch me.

All too true. Self-defense sometimes doesn't seem worth it. But at least the bully has a shattered ankle!

If you get asymmetric lift, all kinds of funky things can happen

Best of luck to him, and thank him for his service! "And Nation, if you can tell the difference between 5,000 non-combat troops and 5,000 combat troops in Iraq, you're The President." - Stephen Colbert

Glad to hear that the SAS guy will be OK. Side note for Dave-> In NH I believe the bill has passed that no longer requires a permit to carry concealed, don't think it's been signed into law yet though.

I've been down there several times, and have been fortunate enough to get a flight on the B-24. Good stuff!

Story by Marc Selinger The U.S. Air Force announced Thursday that it has selected Boeing’s NewGen Tanker to be its new KC-46A air refueling jet. The contract award, which follows a rigorous Air Force review of industry proposals, means Boeing will build the next-generation tanker that will replace 179 of the service’s 1950s-era KC-135s. Boeing officials said they are honored by the selection and will meet the Air Force’s requirement to deliver the first 18 combat-ready aircraft by 2017. “This contract award would not have been possible without the hundreds of Boeing employees across the entire company, and the thousands of our industry teammates, who remained laser-focused on our commitment to offer a solution that is first in capability and best in value,” said Dennis Muilenburg, president and CEO of Boeing Defense, Space & Security. “This award is also a tribute to the Air Force and Defense Department officials who worked so tirelessly to make this procurement process fair, ultimately resulting in the selection of the right plane for the mission. We look forward to working with our Air Force customer to deliver this much needed capability to the servicemen and women we are honored to serve.” Tankers are critical to the U.S. armed forces, extending the range of fighters, bombers and other aircraft by transferring fuel to them in flight. The NewGen Tanker combines the latest, most advanced technology with the proven Boeing 767 commercial airplane. The NewGen Tanker has a modern, digital flight deck based on the new Boeing 787 commercial airliner, and advanced defensive systems so it can safely operate close to the fight. It meets or exceeds all Air Force requirements. Boeing will build the NewGen Tanker with a low-risk approach. It will use a trained and experienced U.S. work force at existing facilities in Washington state and Kansas, and an existing supplier network in more than 40 states. Boeing has built and supported tankers for more than 60 years, and company employees said they are rolling up their sleeves to begin work on this newest tanker right away.

Recently I've been thinking of replacing my Cougar joystick first (leaving the old one off to the side and just leaving the throttle plugged in to use it)... Hmm...

Gotta nip this one in the bud... http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2011/02/17/state/n190410S13.DTL&feed=rss.business
