Get a clue, Ferrin, some of those 19 different F-22s do have strakes. NASA's little toy was a dud. |

Asking a proven and repetitive liar to prove his lie is not likely to get you anywhere fast, Scott. We all know if the Tarvernaut's claim was correct he should be able to post a link to a photo of one of these mythical beasties--but he won't, because he can't. He'll just run his mouth, generate a few more lies, then astonishingly claim victory with his trademark and juvenile, "Thanks for playing", and be off to his next set of lies. The F-22-with-strakes will join the rest of the Tarvernaut's growing pile of noxious and odious past Tarverisms, such as his recoilless-howitzer-on-the-AC-130, his "optical nuke", his F-106's carrying AIM-7's and AIM-9's, his pitot tube nonsense, his unique analysis of Civil War naval history that "proves" the Confederate Navy was blockading the Union, etc., etc., ad nauseum. Of course, then again he might just get really nasty and threaten to sick his personal US-Senator-cum-attack-dawg on you, or even allude to personal threats...but in the end he is just a sad little cretin craving attention in any form he can get it, not unlike the child who throws a tantrum just to get noticed. Just killfile the pitiful creature--as another poster mentioned to me, that single act can bring you significant peace of mind...and the fact that you are at the same time denying him what he really wants (an audience) is just icing on the cake.

What in the heck does an F-104 and HiMAT have to do with the Rose Bowl
and the flyover?? for cryin out loud, you need to change your name to "Tangent Engineering" there Tarver guy!!

I think there was also a range safety package that would destroy the HiMAT if necessary, but I think it was only in the control room and not in the chase plane. I'd have to check on that, though.

Why don't you tell me which one has strakes on it? You don't even need to post a picture. I'll find one and post it and show you that it doesn't. Hell, I'll bet I don't even go to jail. |

NASA's little toy was a dud. Evidence. Give us some evidence or do us all a favor and shut your hole. |

Bull****, the HiMAT lawn darted on every flight. http://www.dfrc.nasa.gov/Gallery/Photo/HiMAT/index.html Specifically: http://www.dfrc.nasa.gov/Gallery/Pho...C79-12055.html which shows the "HiMAT on lakebed after landing." Since HMAT isn't attached to the B-52 and the scoot marks across the lake bed behind it lead directly to the landing gear we can safely say it didn't "lawn dart" on at least one flight. |

Asking a proven and repetitive liar to prove his lie is not likely to get you anywhere fast, Scott. Yeah, I know. I get a kick out of the stupid **** he says though. I've come to the conclusion that he's just a troll (and not even a good one at that) but I just can't help myself when he begs to be kicked. Maybe he's a masochist. We all know if the Tarvernaut's claim was correct he should be able to post a link to a photo of one of these mythical beasties--but he won't, because he can't. He'll just run his mouth, generate a few more lies, then astonishingly claim victory with his trademark and juvenile, "Thanks for playing", and be off to his next set of lies.
