bob..... So did Blair, Major, Brown and Cameron. The only thing that came of them was even more discussion. I hope that a deal is "imminent" but its how close it is that matters

[bobobobobobob] 30/3/2017 17:26

Who did the PM meet up with this week? Join the dots.

[bobobobobobob] 30/3/2017 17:25

Nope. The thought that it is "imminent" is because it is imminent.

Trump’s Favorite Fighter Jet Keeps Starving Pilots of Oxygen


Navy still has no solution to recurring ‘physiological events’

Trump favors Boeing’s Super Hornet over Lockheed’s F-35C


As President Donald Trump pushes for the Pentagon to buy more of Boeing Co.’s F-18 aircraft, the U.S. Navy is grappling with an escalating problem: Pilots suffering potentially dangerous oxygen deprivation or a loss of cabin pressure in the fighter jets.

All F-18 models, including the Super Hornet that Trump has championed, have shown steady annual increases in what the Navy calls “physiological episodes,” according to service testimony obtained by Bloomberg News.

That link takes a while to open and froze my IE. John Brosnan doesn't look much different from when I worked with him 33 years ago. He is cousin of Peirs.

dafrog: please don't give the Treasury any more reasons to push this project even further to the right :-) Given that the Type 23s were built with a design life of 18 years, 10 of the 13 should ALREADY have been replaced :-(
