Loosing? LOOSING??? it's spelled LOSING fer cripe's sake!

I'm going to have to scream if I read "loosing" instead of "losing" one more
freaking time!

WHY is this so difficult?



You either need to get a dictionary or check the facts of the story.

The Texas plane had an aileron come loose. He did not lose it, it
remained attached.

The transitive verb as used is therefore quite correct: "loosing" not
"losing".
