Default "Seeking Foreign Buyers For Osprey"


- Show quoted text -


Anyone wanna take bets on the Ospreys going to Iraq in September?
First loss due to combat, flying accident, or technical malfunction?


Rob


You don't see how sick it is for someone who has never put his neck
on the line to place bets on the deaths of those who do?



What's irresponsible is not to make clear in any way possible what a
piece of **** the Osprey is. If open betting on fatalities were to
bring ridicule to this program it would save lives.

I don't want any more Ospreys to kill people, but kill people they
will if placed in service. I hope that when the inevitable occurs,
among the killed is someone whose demise proves enormously painful to
some son of a bitch who is responsible for this flying abortion.

If they have such faith in this piece of ****, place it in service as
Marine One. That way if we get lucky we may kill two birds with one
stone.

A mixed metaphor....
