Skeptical that Air Force brass would suddenly embrace developing another close support aircraft. They have shown hate for the A10, so why spend money on a replacement.

Congress needs to appropriate the $103 mil for the re-winging. That's short money to keep the planes flying.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.
Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.
Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.
Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.
