Don't want to step on any egos ... err, I mean, toes. . Sorry his feelings got hurt, but not everyone gets a trophy here. |

Additionally the article said he was very politically active. Appeared to be liberal in a fairly conservative area and that his political hero was jailed just prior as well... |

The Canadian Hornets have the same equipment.
The only ones I think. I've not seen it on any other countries airplanes - but I haven't seen every other countries airplanes either ;) They were also modified with spotlights. Non-movable, I believe; they just banked until it would shine on them. One is on display on a stick at the entrance to MacDill AFB. |

I read that too, if true, now we have a motive.
If true I think more than anything else this points to him. What are the odds that your wife and kids move out one day and the next you're the CA of a missing 777? |

Thing is, I only read that detail in one article and even there it wasn't highlighted. Merely another fact about him.

Just a bit of trivia; ALL the two-seat F-101s that I have seen photos of (American as well as Canadian) have the fuselage flush-mounted searchlight. Thought it was just a Canadian ad-on. Learn something every day!

Sorry his feelings got hurt, but not everyone gets a trophy here. Various postings in this thread once again show that when some folks receive answers that don’t fit in with their specific viewpoints or biases, they keep on searching and whipping that dead horse. Facts and common sense be damned! They are not really searching for a valid answer, just validation for themselves. |

I'm only on page 12. Try this: click on User CP, on the left under Your Control Panel find Settings and Options. Click on Edit Options. Then go down to Thread Display Options and go to Number of Posts to show per Page. Edit that to 40 per page and you won't have to scroll through so many pages. Might save some time, maybe not.
A lot of people on here obviously don't know about this feature because they often mention the number of pages and invariably its way more than necessary because they are on the forum default which is only 10 posts per page. Anyway, maybe this is useful, maybe not, but I prefer the maximum of 40 posts per page. Now back to our wildly entertaining rampant speculation of what happened to flight 370. I'm partial to 20/page! ;) |
