2018 Bomber

Now where have we seen one of these before? One question we all must ask ourselves is, why oh! why do we need this aircraft that just exists to murder more innocent people?

The Boeing Company and Lockheed Martin have teamed to perform studies and system development efforts including collaborative research and development in pursuit of the anticipated U.S. Air Force 2018 Bomber program.

This collaborative effort for a long-range strike program will include work in advanced sensors and future electronic warfare solutions including advancements in network enabled battle management, command and control, and virtual warfare simulation and experimentation.
Boeing and Lockheed Martin are working closely at all levels to capture the best of industry to develop and provide an effective and affordable solution for the warfighter. The work performed by the Boeing/Lockheed Martin team is designed to help the Air Force establish capability-based roadmaps for technology maturation and date certain timelines for the 2018 Bomber program.

Hamburg - A320 nearly crashed during crosswind approach

A friend pointed this clip out to me so I thought I would share it with everyone.
The aircraft is 'trying' to land at Hamburg airport during very heavy winds that have swept Europe these past few days.
Everyone who is afraid of flying, I would advise you not to watch this clip.
