Le 162nd Wing de l'US Air Force a entrainé des pilotes de plus de 25 nationalités sur le F-16 ! Il dispose donc d’une solide expérience qui sera mise au profit des Ukrainiens.

Many years ago when my son was in BMT, I kept busy by knitting. I had seen this pattern on knitty.com/ISSUEwinter05/PATTp and was not yet socks, but I wanted to explore that pattern. So I got large circular needles and cotton yarn. my idea was to make a tube and cut it afterwards, sew on binding and have a throw blanket. However, my took to lying on it while it was in my lap as I knit. So I let him use it until he passed. (Continued)

@bethsawin I think we have an answer as to what most of the objects shot down by the USAF are: small HAM radio devices small enough to be unregulated by air traffic controllers. They're intended to circumnavigate the globe and launched by hobbyists.

Did you know that the North American XB-70 Valkyrie was the largest and fastest bomber ever built by the United States? Here's how the behemoth compares in size to "active" service bombers/strikers in the inventory.

Having been brought up with stories of war criminals escaping to sympthetic South American countries, the Brazil-US agreements prior to Pearl Harbour and Brazil's active allied contribution has made me revisit my understanding of Vargas' presidency.

Perhaps a little one-sided "US wins the war" ignoring RAF Ferry Command and RN/Merchant Navy contribution?

Having been brought up with stories of war criminals escaping to sympthetic South American countries, the Brazil-US agreements prior to Pearl Harbour and Brazil's active allied contribution has made me totally revisit my understanding of Vargas' presidency.

A good friend of mine - ex retired lady - has had her account suspended. Can't think why, tho she doesn't like or and isn't afraid to say so. Laughable but also scary, what comes next?

For any who weren’t able to tune into the roll-out, here’s a photo I took of my TV. They didn’t roll out very far and this is the only angle. It’s all still super secretive, obviously.

A friend who is a self-described lighting dork says the blue LED backlit look was likely to mess with cameras.

The new B-21 stealth bomber will be rolled out of the factory at 7 PM central. It’s a pretty big deal and certainly stream worthy. livestream is here:
