If this sounds crazy, remember that before this, they thought about literally joining F-80s on the wing tips of B-29s. It went as expected and ended up in a fatal crash. The development of in-flight refueling solved the problem of the limited range of "fighter escorts."

Not sure if you guys noticed, but KrispyKaiser and Oda-san mentioned they will eventually bring back ALL CHARACTERS OF THE FATAL FURY Series in City of the Wolves! I thought this was only about MOTW at first, but this sounds like the whole Fatal Fury!

A couple of weeks ago the NTSB issued an update on the UPS MD11 crash and I wanted to use the graphs of flight data in a visualization combined with the ADS-B data and surveilance videos. This is what I ended up with, one hard part about this is the flight is so close to the ground the viewpoint needs to account for the pitch of the aircraft raising and lowering the cockpit.

On Tuesday I went to an empty campground in Montana because it was the location of a fatal grizzly attack we covered on Tooth and Claw (my podcast). I saw a moose in the campground and went to take a short video of it…it ended up being a better video than I expected

JOE ROGAN: GOOGLE’S AI SOLVED AN IMPOSSIBLE EQUATION IN MINUTES Joe said Google’s AI achieved a staggering breakthrough by solving a problem that would take the world’s supercomputers billions of years. He said the calculation was so complex that even turning every atom in the universe into a computer wouldn’t have done it in time: “I believe it’s the Google one. They solved an equation that would take the world’s supercomputers, I think it was 2.6 billion years to solve, and it solved it in a matter of minutes. The only way for it to solve this problem, Marc Andreessen said it on my podcast, the equation is so difficult that if you took every atom in the universe and converted it to a supercomputer, the universe would die of heat death before it would solve this equation. And it solved it in minutes.” Source: Joe Rogan Jesse Michels

JUST IN: Footage of the debris field of the F-35 jet has been released after it was located in a field in Williamsburg County, South Carolina. The crash site was about 80 miles from Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina. The F-35 fighter jet appeared to run through a group of trees before crashing down in the field. In 2019, concerns were raised by the Pentagon of the possibility that the F-35 could be hacked. It’s still unclear what caused the crash…

Mornin’. Saturday morning and lots of you seem to remember Roman Road, Bow , East London in the 80s and before, so I thought I’d take you on a wander up it today.

Chile wildfire helicopter crash: The Pilot survived… Insane footage of the Bell helicopter that went down while doing bucket work in Chile this afternoon. #wildfire #aviation #bomberos Clearly a mechanical failure. Earlier this summer, U.S. and Canadian transportation authorities grounded a portion of the Bell wildfire fleet after a fatal crash was caused by rotor straps that failed during flight. Very concerning.

Though it is a fiction and a lot of liberties are taken; but even if 1% of judges in this country act swiftly, the problem of false cases can be solved.

On this date in 1967, Otis Redding died young, at the age of 26, in a plane crash in Wisconsin. This was his final performance - a day before before him and four members of the Bar-Kays passed away in the crash.

More information on the Russian ring-wing FPV, including a larger version apparently intended as an interceptor. They claim that the addition of the closed wing has tripled the range of an FPV to 50 km. The drones take off vertically and then transition to horizontal flight.

The roots of SNK fighting games really come from the Fatal Fury series. It grew side by side as a rival to Street Fighter II, and it’s honestly an iconic series. These days, it feels like it’s been absorbed into The King of Fighters series, but with the recent release of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, the legacy of Fatal Fury is finally continuing again. If you grew up in the arcade era, there’s a good chance you loved this series.

ALL OF THIS! 🔥👇🏼 “A lot of those celebrities on stage that got awards, whether they were on stage or in the audience, was on those f*cking Epstein Files. The fact that many of you watched and supported it, says a whole lot… Y’all never gave a f*ck about the victims. Y’all just care about if Trump’s name was in there.”

Scoring the first air-to-air kill of the Korean War on June 27, 1950, the F-82 Twin Mustang was the last prop fighter ordered by the USAF and still owns the record of the longest non-stop flight without refueling for a piston engine fighter.👀

The death of the first flying wing On this day in 1948: USAF prototype Northrop YB-49 [42-102368] a flying wing jet bomber, crashes in California (US) all 5 aboard die. The aircraft had a structural failure on a test flight. Enquiry stated that the outer wing sections detached when pulling from a dive, likely after an intentional stall. Despite development work continuing for two more years, the YB-49 project would be canceled in the mid-1950s, in favor of more conventional designs. The flying wing concept only became practical with the advent of computers in the 1980s, with the B-2, whose advanced electronics compensated for the instability of the tailless aircraft. As a memorial to the victims, Forbes AFB and Edwards AFB are named in honor, respectively, of the pilot (Major Daniel Forbes) and copilot (Capt Glen Edwards) who perished in this crash. Video shows a YB-49 in testing – Nakama (YT)

I remember this bridge scene in Funny Farm with Mickey and Crocker and I thought it was one of the funniest parts of the whole movie.... This was some of the earliest laughs in the film... They struggled to find the remote farmhouse, getting visibly frustrated and eventually dumping the couple's belongings in the wrong spot if i remember correctly...
