Re: SR-71 pilot story

Good one! Thanks Sneaky!!! :D ? For what? I used to live about 6 miles from Wethersfield. One day the house started to shake and I went out back to see the SR-71 taking off on full afterburner and climbing around 60%. Not only the fastest of it's time but probably the loudest too!

It was indeed a sad mistake. Mistakes like this have happened many times before in every war that has been fought since the advent of gunpowder and incidents like this will continue to happen. We had the same problem in "Nam. When you are fighting an army "of the people" then the peop...

Re: Lightning Interdiction (Latest Screenshot)

May be an issue with my new browser. Firefox took a royal dump and I replaced it with google CHROME. It's a faster browser but it has some quirks I've not learned yet.
