The French by Gary Brecher The new big thing on the web is all these sites with names like "I Hate France," with supposed datelines of French military history, supposedly proving how the French are total cowards. If you want to see a sample of this dumbass Frog bashing, try...

Napoleon and Hitler tought they could defeat Mother Russia. They said Mother Russia was a total mess. Mother Russia is 1,500 years old and she has never been defeated. America is like 230 years old, America has a lot of learning to do. America has never been invaded in the same scale Mother...

In May 1972, the Boston Phoenix reported that Kerry had defiantly given his medals back to the U.S. government during one of his many protests. New York Times columnist Bill Keller wrote in September 2002 that the senator invited him to view 40 minutes of films Kerry made depicting his war...

I fly about 50 hours a year and wish I could do more, just to stay in the groove. Could I have stayed current in a jet fighter, flying about 140 hours a year? Thanks! all the best -- Dan Ford email: (put Cubdriver in subject line)

I've had a questions I'd like to foist upon the collective knowledge here... I have a few of those "World's Worst Airplane" books and enjoy reading about the creations of those in the old days who were basically working by the seat of their pants. I've noticed that their were many planes during...

We keep bringing up presidents/candidates getting shot at ( "We" includes me, I confess ). But today a related issue popped into my head. After all the discussion of Kerry's VN history, I wondered if we have had any other recent ( last 75 years or so ) presidents or major contenders who have...

This questions has been killing me, what is the name of the leading edge flaps that you find on airliners for example. Ive heard the name slats, but I know there is another name for it.

The Commandant of the Marines said today, that his troops "will not be able to enter Fallujah, Iraq for years."

Anyone know why the AIM-54 Phoenix is carried only by the F-14?? Why hasnt the air-force developed a long range air to air missile like the phoenix? As far as I know, the AIM-120 is about the longest range modern missile they have in their arsenal.

The vast majority of university professors and scholars are Democratic liberals. Very few are neocons. The neocons just can't make the cut into higher education. They just aren't smart enough as Bush so eloquently demonstrates. Arthur Kramer 344th BG 494th BS England, France, Belgium, Holland,...
