I think she said what she said on purpose. Knowing this video would go viral, and re-define Habeas Corpus to the general public, and muddy the waters even more on what authority the US President DJT has.

In an environment in which sensors and systems win battles, the Cyclone may be mechanically sound (but from my limited experience with the Cyclone fleet, I don’t believe this is true), but without effective sensors and systems to process data into information, and share that information, it is...

I am pretty sure Chrystia Freeland did the first and Mark Carney the second.

In a manned aircraft, beyond descending on a LPV approach (if they were circling, they were not) or programming direct attack munitions (for which I use a type of GPS altitude), I use baro and radar altitude, not GPS altitude. Baro altitude cannot be spoofed/jammed (unless someone can change...

Unless you specifically address the most dangerous course of action, hope is always part of every COA.

How much ET&E is still being done though? How far is Airbus into the Certification program and AETE in the Qualification program?

At 3 Wing, the vast majority of techs, and over 1/2 the pilots are francophones. While employment is an issue for some spouses, it is not for most. We have francophones posted to English provinces all the time. They and their families adapt and thrive. Nothing preventing anglophone families to...

Operating small NORAD dets inherently reduces your capacity to Force Generate at MOB. With the few assets we have, it would be extremely difficult to run a continuous NORAD det, run an FG program enough to sustain the Force and project force (whether on exercise or for FE).

Obscene? No. Inappropriate? Absolutely.

Sure I would. But I would not say “because your biological clock is ticking”

You also need airframes for training, which I believe is what changed the number from 65 to 88.

Not sure where you get your info but China is not Russia.
