Default Landing without flaps

I think it's worth an experiment.

How does a washer that gets sucked throw an engine?

Where does the $4 billion figure come from? Quote a source.

How is a dog trained to smell out a screw? What do screws smell
like? Do washers smell like soap?

There is no limit to the number of ideas that we think
government should implement. An individual doesn't have to be
especially intelligent to come up with ideas. But there is a limit to
how much more taxation we'll tolerate to pay for all those ideas. At a
time when health care is strained beyond reason, when education is
slipping beyond the reach of many, when infrastructure (like bridges,
highways, public buildings) is collapsing, you'll have a hard time
convincing that the safest form of transportation ever devised needs
more public money thrown at it.
