    So obviously the guys on the ground used whatever they were issued to destroy the most sensitive bits, but why wasn't there a big bada boom coming from high altitude just after they left to finish off the rest of the airframe?

    The Pakistanis were already going to be really pissed/embarrassed/bribed.

    That's really weird why they didn't. Almost like we didn't care. I know collateral damage but with something of that nature almost seems like it would be worth it to really blow it up. Now we have the almost certain potential that it will end up in china.

    Did anyone hear about how the Power went out before they came and turned back on after they left. That's really neat/scary.

    Has there been anything about why the helicopter crashed? I mean, it seems like Blackhawks just love to crash, but what was the deal?

    Could have either been the high altitude combined with a full load of personnel, but it could have also taken fire. A press conference with military commanders said they didn't say it was mechanical failure...

    I bet we've got a lot cooler and more top secret stuff than that.
