An apt name for the plane

Right wing comes unglued.  Pilot makes a beautiful 3-point landing after a display of arial acrobaticcs probably not practiced even on a computer game.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

But I'm betting something about that video was practiced on the computer...

No, wait. Produced. That's the word I'm looking for.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

The landing certainly looked fake, very much so.  Even the end with the guy running toward the plane looked like computer graphics.  I am not sure I can tell about the rest of it.

Not a real plane. Not a real event.

Yeah, this was on here or somewhere and the consensus was it was a fake. From what I recall, there were supposedly differences in the tail painting which revealed it was a model in the air and a real plane on the ground, with a bit of image fakery involved.  However, there is apparently still debate about it.


This one fooled me, too, but the voting there was that it was a very well-done fake generated by Nissan:

Looking at the video and the well-done "news reporting" without any other referent, I'd bet you'd believe it, too.

After all this, I changed my default position from believing everything I see to everything's a fake.

And I've been fooled by taking that position, too.  I'd call BS and it was actual fact.  My misperceptions happen with women, too.

Dang.

Dayamed if you do, dayamed if you don't.

Its a model in flight with photoshopped pilot at the end. This one has been around for a long time.
A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

Good Ol' McDonell-Douglas Technology.  "Even a brick will fly if you put a big enough engine in it."
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

That's called an F-4!
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith
