Talking heads
No, I was not simply corrected, I was accused of being confused about the
name of the group. I never denied that I made a mistake. What I attacked was having a typo mistake I made equated to the significant mistake made by a news service by saying only two of the Blue Angels planes in the show were flown by a single pilot. Jack G. "Clark" wrote in message ... "Jack G" wrote in : Wrong. He accused me of being confused about the name of the group. I never mentioned the name of the group, I referred to one solo performer (Blue Angel #6). Unfortunately I made a transposition error and typed Angle instead of Angel. That is a long way from being confused! Wrong? No, you're the only one wrong here. You were called on a simple error and instead of admitting it you attacked. That is wrong. "Clark" wrote in message ... "Jack G" wrote in news:yfKdna- : If you are going to correct me, get it right: Group: Blue Angels. Individual Aircraft: Blue Angel (as in Blue Angel #6. ) And it is not the same thing as confusing a solo performer with a single pilot. Jack G. Well Jack, an angle is not an angel... (he had it right enough) "Tex Houston" wrote in message .. . "Jack G" wrote in message news One news story covering the crash said Blue Angle #6 was one of two airplanes flown by a single pilot during the show. I do believe they were confused by "solo" as applied to #6. Jack G. Same as you're confused about the name of the group? Angels, damn it!

Even as late as today, Sunday, one AP release states:
"The squadron's six, F/A-18 Hornets routinely streak low over crowds of thousands at supersonic speeds, coming within feet, sometimes inches, of each other." |

Where do they hire these idiots?
It used to be - on local TV channels - that they'd hire the prettiest looking (and not necessarily the smartest) women for "weather girl" roles. Since then they have apparently expanded the number of roles available to this demographic. If they look buff on the beach, can fog a mirror, and can remember their names without looking at their drivers licenses, they're hired. -- Mike Kanze "I would love to change the world, but I can't find a diaper large enough." - Anonymous "Jim" wrote in message ... Sure is irritating to listen to the media report the crash of a Blue Angels F/A-18 at MCAS Beaufort. The more they ramble the more anyone with any aviation background recognizes these folks haven't a clue. For example; who went down? Well let's see the aircraft are numbered 1 thru 6. Which one isn't on the flightline? Also either Fox or CNN couldn't decide whether or not one of the pilots might have been a woman. Believe the Blue Angels home page could answer that really quickly. Where do they hire these idiots? ACC USN ret. NKX, BIKF, NAB, CV-63, NIR 67-69 69-71 71-74 77-80 80-85 & 74-77 Founder: RAMN (rec.aviation.military.naval) |
