i wonder if they will test the military pilots to see if they were on speed?

part of the defence of the USAF pilots who are charged with killing coalition forces in Afghanistan is that they were pressurised into using speed so that they would be able to fly longer hours.

Last month there were two serious collisions involving US military planes at Shannon. In both cases the planes collided with hammers or hatchets.

are the saddo's still at their little vigil by keeping watch on shannon airport 24/7? good to know the taxpayers are funding these wasters. its a pity the hatchet didnt fall on one of the 'famous fives' faces. cos it sure as hell couldnt have made 'em any uglier..
