I think they'll probably stage at YYC just for logistics purposes. Too much of a hassle to get people back to accommodations and the like if they stage at YBW

It's a lot of Monday morning quarterbacking to assume that. Had it been a less aggressively banked turn I think the chances of making it back to the area of the airport with the altitude available...
MotoGP has an automated system now. You breach track limits during practice/qualifying and it automatically wipes the time...do it during the race and it automatically generates a track limits...
He's pretty critical of the fact that the snowbirds are still even operating the type at the end of it...but very good review of the stated facts without opinion other than that.
^So. Much. This.
Norway operates there's out of Bodo, and does deployments to Iceland as well. The USAF has 2 squdarons of them based at Eieleson. The idea that the F-35 is unable to operate in...
That both at home and abroad, and bombing missions with coalition forces.
The other thing worth noting right now in this competition is that the conformal tanks on the SH were found to have...
I don't think the final report is published yet.
Here's where it's at for now:...
Gman.45 Best Fighter For Canada is also very biased towards the Gripen, and I've made those points over there. They say that it's not fair to reference previous competitions as statistical...
Gman.45
My biggest argument against the Gripen (which they hate) is this...if anyone believed that it was REALLY as capable as Saab claims, for the price that they claim, and the operating costs...
Gman.45
The Gripen for Canada group is an echo chamber that I refuse to join. I'm on BF4C fairly regularly on Facebook and even there it's awful sometimes. The problem with the Gripen fans is they...
It's unfortunate because I honestly think there's enough users to support both tracks. But there was always going to be one that was a winner in all of this when it came down to trying to get both...
I seem to recall getting angrily replied to a few years ago for stating that RMMP was in a better financial position than Badlands due to the people behind each project...weird how that worked out.

Yes, and the stupid screws strip really easily.
No, but funny airplane trivia...
The CF-18's first flew in 1978. 42 years ago. If you went back 42 years from that the aircraft would have...
Saab aircraft is very Swedish.
Saab's proposal actually has the jets being assembled in Nova Scotia by IMP...Lockheed the jobs are spread around to various facilities around Canada.
ehhh...in reality there's not a lot of militaries that could potentially fend off Russia if they really decided to annex an island in the far north in a move to extend their arctic sovereignty. We'd...
Lol. Butthurt people gonna be butthurt.
$5 on zenops.
Anemic range next to what? The F-35 range on internal fuel is more than a super hornet with CFT's. The F-35 is only out loitered by an F-15E with cfts and bags on.
In close the T/W of the raptor combined with thrust vectoring make it very tough to top. I'll find the link when I get home about the systems edge of the F-35 being leveraged against the F-22.
...
I don't know what you mean by that. The F-35 is dominant in the Air to Air game. There hasn't been a fighter this dominant since the F-15C started showing up and picking apart the 3rd gens. In...
There's no appetite for offensive drones in this country. Super politically unpopular. and regardless of that, it goes back to the RFP. we have to act as though what the RFP says is exactly what...
Ryanair ordered 75 more maxes the day the grounding was lifted, and alaska ordered some more today.
The F-18's as a source for cannibalizations was an ok idea (but we over paid)...trying to bring...
I've sort of been harping on this on the facebook group as well, but we have to remember how long we took to get to a true RFP stage, and competition to begin with. It's not that I can't see the...
I think Air Canada is keeping all their Maxes aren't they?
I made the mistake of joining the BF4C group on Facebook, which is dominated by Gripen fanboys...I spend half my time over there...
Haven't been out much lately...but been working back through stuff from last year and doing a whole lot of Keywording and re-editing...this one is from last March:

Nice.
I rode in to work tonight, first time doing that this year, which means it's definitely going to rain here tonight.
I've been out for a few rides already this year though, put about 500km of city...
Absolutely ridiculous price point on the 120-300. Almost 3 times the cost of the Sigma.

French Navy Rafale M (unfortunately this jet is grey again now...I saw it about a month after it was unveiled and the paint was already peeling off the belly)

Hehe. I’ll go through later and find some others.
haha...I thought the bottom was active threads not similar threads...my bad. lol
Nice Morant's shot...CP is very easy to listen in to on a scanner and at least know if there's any trains in the area and which way they might come from.
whoops. Brought a thread back from the dead.
Oh Geez ExtraSlow I don't even know where to start with this thread. lol

The SU-30SM Pairs display put on this year at MAKS is the single most impressive airshow display I've ever seen, bar none.
