Awfully ridiculous photograph they chose to accompany that article. Media sucks these days.

It took me a second to understand why we needed a TV western hero for this news article.

Oh, the joys of age.

I agree Longbow. I hate when they do the same thing on certain, otherwise well done and quality military or ufo investigation documentaries. Some eyewitness report says they saw specifically two F-15s scrambling yet onscreen yet they show some odd, out of place video of an F-16 in flight or something to that effect. If you're going to report news or other information to the public, do them the courtesy of being accurate.

Russia has been doing this crap more and more the past few months.

Putin likes to taunt us.

OTOH, barrel roll around what look an awful lot like a Boeing 707 in a jet fighter is kind of cool.

[fake news report]

When asked about the incident, a Russian Air Ministry commented on the objections of the USA to the maneuver with a smiling "F--k 'em if they can't take a joke."

Maybe it *was* a Knights pilot on aerobatic exercise and wanted to extend the show program?

Also "Pentagon spokesman Commander Bill Urban"? smile

So when he puts a spin on a story, is that then called an "Urban legend"? [I know, I know, *groan*]

He was totally sexist and drummed out of the service.

I am not there, never have been or ever will be, but the fruitless search may be more gratifying then the "content" you might otherwise be exposed to.
