Will this urban legend ever die??? Bonnie did not repeat not have boffins. She had twin 3"50 guns in turrets. Maggie had the boffins.

Stupid question from an ignoramus here, concerning HIMARS: Is there mid flight guidance or terminal guidance on the projectiles? Here's why I ask: An average cargo ship these days will be proceeding along at about 16 Kts: In those 5 to 10 minutes, it will have move between 1.3 and 2.6 NM...

Or, as I keep telling people: They are sent to jail AS punishment, not FOR punishment.

Your understanding of the realities of civil damage for a case like this is correct, few settlements in Canada are in the single million dollars or more, most are below, and very few have more than two or three millions. You'd have to have killed Taylor Swift and be faced with the claim of her...

I'd say (by experience) that about 90% of civil lawsuits, regardless of parties, are settled out of court, most before it even goes to trial, especially in provinces that have public compulsory auto insurance plans, like B.C. and Qc. Even more so in provinces that don't have civil trials by...

If the Swedish system fits in a Global 600 or 650, and you want range for the Arctic, could it not be fitted in an Airbus A220-300 that then get some extended range (extra belly tanks using the room available but not needed for the cabin or electronics?

Like naval aviators need yet one more way to stand out from the mere commoners.

To paraphrase the Dursley's: "There's no such thing as too many navaids".

Dammit! G.I. Joe gets a whole Tiger Force. All we ever get in Canada are Tiger Teams.

QV, I believe Altair may have been referring to a woman's right to control her own body (i.e. abortion rights), which is all over the map as a result of Roe v. Wade being overturned, said map being covered not only with different colours and nuances of colours, but with some of the clearly...

Aaahhh! Just go fly a ki... Bombardier. :)

Yes. What better way to know if you are facing a major or a warrant officer: Must be an officer, he's wearing brown shoes!

The ghost writers of Trump's first book titled it "The Art of the Deal". His second book, coming soon, will be titled "The Art of Pissing Off Your Friends in No Time Flat".

No. The "claim" of an EX- boyfriend should be taken as just that: a "claim" (not a fact) and form an "ex", who most likely has an ax to grind. Let him bring outside proof of this fact relying on something else than just his own testimony about that. No court, and court of public opinion, should...

Well, here's how I view this: She is single, so was the divorced guy. The dating site is legal and when entered willingly and freely by two parties that understand the type of relationship sought at that site, the relationship itself is perfectly legal. So what is the big deal, and why would it...
