First 2012 Olympics Joke
Thanks to Peter
It's 2012 and it's the Olympics in London.
A Scotsman, an Englishman and an Irishman want to get in, but
they haven't got tickets.
The Scotsman picks up a manhole cover, tucks it under his arm
and walks to the gate.
"McTavish, Scotland " he says, "Discus" and in he walks.
The Englishman picks up a length of scaffolding and slings it
over his shoulder. "Waddington-Smythe, England" he says,
"Pole vault" and in he walks.
The Irishman looks around and picks up a roll of barbed wire and
tucks it under his arm. "O'Malley, Ireland " he says, "Fencing."

Some Very Hard Core Flying!!
Thanks to Tony H.
The red smoke coming from the wingtips is only there to demonstrate to spectators on the ground
the direction the plane is actually moving through the air.
Normally the smoke wouldn't be there.
When the smoke is streaming behind, the airplane is moving fast forward etc.
When the airplane is engulfed in smoke, it means the airplane is almost stopped in mid-air.
The maneuverability of this plane is incredible.
This plane would be nearly impossible to defeat in a dogfight.
Russia may now have the #1 fighter plane in the world...
SU-30 Vectored Thrust with Canards...
As you watch this airplane, look at the canards moving
along side of, and just below the canopy rail.
The "canards" are the small wings forward of the main wings.
The smoke and contrails provide a sense of the actual flight path, sometimes in reverse direction.
This video is of an in-flight demonstration flown by the Russian's 30MK fighter aircraft.
The fighter can stall from high speed, stopping forward motion in seconds. (full stall).
Then it demonstrates an ability to descend tail first without causing a compressor stall.
It can also recover from a flat spin in less than a minute.
These maneuver capabilities don't exist in any other aircraft in the world today..
Take a look at the video with the sound up..
This aircraft is of concern to U.S. and NATO planners.
We don't know which nations will soon be flying the SU-30MK, hopefully China isn't one of them..
Friends worked with advanced aircraft flight control systems and concepts for many years as an extension of stability control and means of control.
Canards and vectored thrust were among many concepts examined to extend our fighter aircraft performance.
Neither our current or next generation aircraft now poised for funding & production can in any way match the performance of this Russian aircraft.
Somehow the bankrupt Russian aircraft industry has out produced our complex politically tainted aerospace industry with this technology marvel.
Scratch any ideas of close in air-to-air combat with this aircraft in the future.
This Beautiful Tree in SOUTHERN AFRICA
Thanks to John H.
It's amazing how someone can actually carve
Looks normal from a distance.....well, kinda stubby!
But,..look at 'this' as you get closer!!!!!!
Whatever you can imagine....some artist can carve.....
Here's some close-up pics....
and sculpture like this and not kill the tree!!!!!
Pictures from the right angle
