oh man, that sucks! I have always loved the flying wing and was awed when the B2 was developed. Modern aircraft is just wow, fuggin amazing.

ND, no doubt the Raptor is the baddest aircraft ever put into production. From the beginning it has meant to install fear in our enemies and awe our allies.

hey at least the pilots made it out ok...


:edit: if they pay me a few million... i wil show them how to drill a hole in the control console.... install 2 way toggle switch.... hook computer main feed to toggle switch... disaster avoided.....

but obviously people took my comment the wrong way.... what i was trying to say is that its funny that all the technologies we create to avoid crashes will actually cause a crash if your not careful.... personally i think the ground crew should have not let the vehicle take off as they even stated that they knew a sensor could be clogged by water....

hell that like saying we let a city bus go out but knew there was a chance the brakes were cut....

im not talking crap about the planes.... they were designed, engineered and constructed to spec.... and the technology in the planes is absolutely breathtaking...

but no matter how well you build a machine it only takes one un-intelligent person or bad decision to destroy it....
