Last one of his para trooper group in WWII. He was also in a German prison during the war, and......................if he tried today, couldn't hear an atomic bomb going off if it was next door, since his TV is so loud he can't even hear you knocking on the door if you used a 10 man door knocker to see if he is inside or not. Oh lord, last time I knocked, I think I was screaming loud enough to be heard miles away and he still kept saying.......... HUH. AREN'T YOU KATHIES BOY!!!!!!!!! He still gets around though........

Thanks uncle sam!"BS. Come on Cassity, you know better. It's a joint project with EADS and Northrop/Grumman. Boeing has every other USAF contract, has horrible supplier problems with the 777/787 platform their tanker was based on, and is so overbooked right now it would take forever and a day to actually get any of the planes. Northrop needs something or they will collapse, not to mention they can ramp up pretty much right away and really crank out just the tankers. Quote Selected

In The News Reply #7 – March 07, 2008, 04:31:48 PM Here's the newest headline sure to piss some people off:"Thunder Chicken grows tired of the constant bickering on the FTCMB"While I've got no problems with sharing news on forums (hell, I get most of my news from the various message forums I browse) I don't think we need anything else to fight about on this particular board.Closing this up before it goes into the shiznitter Quote Selected
