Giving them the luagh of their lives...

Hey I take offence to that little people jab. I'm like 5'4". Good to know they are all having the "luagh" of their lives at my expense.

Besides it's not like anyone who visits these aviaton threads has ever worked in some capacity around these aircraft. I couldn't see that being possible around here in a million years.

Awesome, one of my favorite movies. I so feel Roy Scheider right now.

Seaquest DSV!?

If it ends up being artificially intelligent and LM did indeed hire the COD marketing team then I hope it follows me back on twitter!

I don't know exactly how it works in the Air Force, but within NASA, whenever there is a competed program with multiple competitors, it's not uncommon for the government procurement folks to quietly get together with the winner shortly before the final announcement is made public in order to verify that the contractor is ready to go as soon as the announcement is made. This includes things like being able to actually spend the money within the correct fiscal year, having program executives scheduled to attend the press conference, etc., etc.

Competing teams can often figure out who is going to be selected based on who suddenly had to make travel arrangements to be at the Pentagon on a particular date. I imagine something similar could have happened here.

Sure you meant something else.. lol! But your link is a video of Samantha Hoopes in a sex sells commercial for Hardees/Carl's Jr.

Wow is right!

A big clue for this competition is that NG suddenly pulled a lot of engineering support and money out of their program, and dumped it all into their sixth generation fighter development program. Generally when one company does that it's a bad sign for them getting the contract.

There's still a chance but going on other programs historically its not a good sign for them. Especially with them having the problems they had during testing.

So, does that mean we're gonna see less of a triangle and more of a dart?

a reply to: SonofaSkunk

If this goes the way previous comps have, yes.

Don't worry, we're all laughing with you, not at you Bass.

a reply to: Zaphod58

In my experience, darts are much faster than Doritos. Hmmmmm...

a reply to: Sammamishman

This is nice.... only last evening i was talking to family members about this and they didnt take my word for it.

I still wonder, however, when oh when do we get to see the black triangle basssplyr is referring to hovering out of a hangar?

That is what will truly make me goddamn happy as hell!

I'll try again.

Well it appears that the test videos that were posted yesterday (there are 7 of them now) are for some kind of live stream event that never took place.
I'm wondering if this was a test for streaming the bomber announcement live in Aug. from the various LM production locations that have been working on the project thus far.
LM may be setting up to let us see the happy cheering LM employees and the corks fly when the official press conference is held. Similar to what NASA does when a lander probe touches down successfully.
Something I find odd though, is If the clock represented a date, it seams strange that the date falls on a Sunday. I wouldn't think anything happens on a Sunday but maybe they are making an exception this time for some scheduling reason?

...and where is Boeing's Easter egg?

Hey neighbor, check out this tread:

The F-35 announcement was shown on live television so I'd be surprised if this isn't streamed.

I'm still not convinced it's alluding to a date pertaining to August 2. That's just how that model of clock displays the time. The model is Copal Quartz Flip Clock Model QG 870.
