If Blackwater is acting irresponsibly on the ground, imagine what they
can do in the air.


Let's see an unarmed turbine powered 2 seater. Do you think it might
just be for the President of BW to have some fun in?


Eric Prince http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Prince may actually be
qualified, as he earned his airmans certificate while still attending
high school. But I see him as more of the L-39 Albatros type.

I believe it might be to train Blackwater pilots to operate the eight
314-B1 Super Tucanos the US government is currently negotiating to
purchase as mentioned in the first link of my original article in this
message thread.
