Therefore you don't need your citizens to have the right to bear arms anymore.
I bet you are all relieved, that "right to bear arms" thing could cause a problem later on...........

I wonder if the MIG-29 used a little Channel Wing effect in it's STOL mode?

The jet engine would draw a lot of air in and create negative pressure or lift at the front bottom half of the intake (internal), right?

If you have not seen this plane in action; The front part of the jet intakes closes off, and louvered vents in the top open up so that debris from makeshift run ways (or damaged runways) in war time does not get ingested into the engine.

just got this one from the shop
alu frame, carbon fork , it's quite light
did get an ATB style handle bar
i'm just starting off cycling, and the race handle bar looks just wrong without the click pedals/shoes, and i'm not quite ready to splash out on the full race gear, at least not untill i can actually do 30 clicks + at some decent speed...

ideally would have wanted this one


but since that sucker costs more then my 944S is worth, i figure it would be sortoff overdoing things just a liiiiitle bit

It needs a radar dish.

The car is digitized with a hand controlled scanning arm and then modeled in 3D Max.

The Ferrari 275 GTB
Quote:
On an August morning in 1978, French filmmaker Claude Lelouch mounted a gyro-stabilized camera to the bumper of a Ferrari 275 GTB and had a friend, a professional Formula 1 racer, drive at breakneck speed through the heart of Paris. The film was limited for technical reasons to 10 minutes; the course was from Porte Dauphine, through the Louvre, to the Basilica of Sacre Coeur. No streets were closed, for Lelouch was unable to obtain a permit. The driver completed the course in about 9 minutes, reaching nearly 140 MPH in some stretches. The footage reveals him running real red lights, nearly hitting real pedestrians, and driving the wrong way up real one-way streets. Upon showing the film in public for the first time, Lelouch was arrested. He has never revealed the identity of the driver, and the film went underground until a DVD release a few years ago.

Video of Ferrari in Paris:
