*shrug* Those are just pictures from the last SAPP night when we all tried to land after a sortie.  Any landing where you are carried out by a stretcher is a good landing in our book.

Are you able to post coherent sentences or is that beyond your intelligence level?

This might help so you don't look like an uneducated squeaker each time you post.

USE PUNCTUATION, PLEASE!  Good god.

Looking back, it's too bad we didn't save more of those aircraft for museums... :(

Typical government waste. By 1948, they were selling them for $1500 so, surplus. Look at those pictures and see how much money was wasted there. Hell, they could have been sold to friendly nations who needed affordable military aircraft. Each one of those planes was nearly brand new, and cost about $100,000, plus whatever equipment was hung on it later.

Sadly, that made more sense and was easier to read than what glock typed.
