    Default Anyone else in COS taking a long lunch today? Thunderbird crash. Pilot survived.

    Thunderbirds should be overhead in a little while, quite a lot of people using the New Life parking lot.

    Our office in Gleneagle is having pizza outside. But I'm working from home, so not as close to the 'action'...

    [wet blanket]I just can't enjoy these public displays of patriotism anymore.

    It just reminds me that we're a once great but dying republic.

    Now when I see displays of our military might my first thought is; "I wonder how long before those guns are turned on us." Especially when it comes to the Air Force (the most leftist of all the military services ... and now shifting focus from air superiority to Cyber war superiority, which CLEARLY has more uses against the American people than our enemies).[/wet blanket]

    Ok, went down to check it out. Jet is in the low ground east of Powers. Cops are on site and keeping people back. They say it may be leaking fuel. Everyone and their mom is showing up to see.
    News crews are there as well.
    Nothing to see, move along.

    Are they crashing their F-16s to make the F-35 look better?

    Glad to hear the pilot is safe.
