Struck out on DirecTV as well - it's available online if you have the time and bandwidth.

Watch it online at Raid on the Reactor

And it works on NMCI, uh oh....

Pretty sure there is another book on the subject called “Bulls Eye, One Reactor”

Does anyone else find in interesting that Ilian Ramon was a “Payload” Specialist and that the payload was a camera to look for “desert dust”? Hope the images were transmitted back to ground prior to the accident. Wonder how much of that dust was in Iran?

If we see part II any idea if Jordan or Turkey will allow transit, or will they try to block it to save face?

Loud public condemnation for sure.

But their air defenses might just coincidentally happen to be "down for maintenance" at the appointed hour.

Does the USAF fly any of the F-16s with conformals? I know some countries, including Israel, do. And from what I read it doubles the range of the F-16, rght? But no inflight separation for the CFT.

NOT the answer. I know about the CFTs but the QUESTION was are they used by the USAF . I know the F-15 uses CFTs but the -16?

Answer is: Nope

... as expected. I didn't remember ever seeing a USAF with the shoulder pads. Pretty amazing design to add that much fuel and so little additional drag.

I guess though if you just wanted a big wing with no CFTs this would have been the one.

It's actually a lot of drag. It also limits the jet to 7.5 G's.
