    Australia to buy P-8A Poseidon - News.com

    My guess... a Bombardier bail-out that'll come with years upon years of delays. But hey, it's made in QueCanada!

    Australia to buy P-8A Poseidon - News.com

    MAD aside, being down low is really only useful for knowing where the sonobuoys actually land. Shorter fall = greater accuracy. If you have buoys that reported back their GPS position... you could fly must higher and more comfortably. I assume the P8 is using the "new" GPS buoys.

    The price tag for passengers’ food, drink on Justin Trudeau’s plane was $1300...

    But screw me when I try and claim my $17 for breakfast because a muffin and crappy coffee aren't, IMHO, continental breakfast.

    The Great Gun Control Debate

    While a touchy subject, and I'm not trying to stir the pot, but hunting regulations and licensing are to help ensure a sustained healthy population of the animal as well. Hunting with a modern rifle and scope isn't the same as it was 200-300 years ago. This is also the same reason that Bow...

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    The F15C was designed, and mostly outfitted to be an Air-Superiority fighter. Limited strike role. Wouldnt be a good fit. The F15E on the other hand... great purchase 10-15 years ago.

    The RCAF's Next Generation Fighter (CF-188 Replacement)

    I'm in awe that this is still an argument. Why, if given the opportunity, would you not want the latest and greatest for the same price as something old. Super Hornets were a great option, 15 years ago. There's zero reason to buy something virtually outdated at this point and sink hundreds of...

    USS Donald Cook incident

    IMHO, RF jamming/spoofing that made targeting the aircraft difficult. This is nothing new. As per making the screens on-board the Cook go blank... they'd NEVER release that information. The only way I could see that possibly happening though, is a computer overload that caused it to just throw...

    2 RCAF members have died

    I can personally say the same thing about Zach. Loved that guy. My condolences to both families. From the sounds of things, two great guys left us early.

    CF-188 Hornet, Canada's jet fighter

    That's the beauty of the F35 though. Stealth is a "freebie", It costs nothing. Why wouldnt you want it? Yes, there's missions where the a 5th gen isnt required... that's the beauty of the F35. Slap on some hardpoints and carry more weapons. Why wouldn't you want that? The physics behind stealth...

    Morale Patches

    I wish you were joking. =D I've drawn it up and put in for a quote... we'll see Edit: Price is as follows... 1 - $40.47 5 - $61.35 ($12.27ea) 10 - $85.30 ($8.53ea) 20 - $130.60 ($6.53ea) Seems rather expensive, no? Having said that, if 10 people wanted them, I can organize =D

    Contacted the seller on eBay about those patches. He doesn't have anymore and doesn't suspect he ever will  :(

    Op IMPACT: CAF in the Iraq & Syria crisis

    Max, I just checked CRA and still no updated T4 posted there either for me. Having said that, received it on EMAA and in the mail in early-mid March. I've long since filed and had the funds deposited into my account. Get onto EMAA =D
