  1. Il-76 flight from Antarctica to Cape town, Part 1 of 3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxTBfZRCw7M
  2. First one to work, anyway ;)
  3. I've seen Mi-8s at similar altitudes, doing similar stuff. Not as agile, but gets the job done ;)
  4. is this the 3rd or 4th topic about this?
  5. So, the KKK now got a navy section?
  6. Novi Sad, 1928.

    Top Gun 2!

    Actually, SR-71 that shoots missiles would fit more in a movie today. That thing looks more 21st century than any bug, bolt, or bird of pray :D

    Top Gun 2!

    It will be F-18 vs MiG-34 :D

    But who cared about that? I don't think we can ever have a mythical figher again. Lot less is unknown than back in those days. And even when some details are, people will think and claim that they know them. The mistery is gone.
  10. I doubt it entered any combat zone at less than 15000 in the past 20 years.
  11. at least you have your gun left and you can aim it by the traice... ough. :D
  12. :worthy:Voidloss coming to Belgrade Friday night :clap:
  13. I am old enough to realize that I am responsible for my own decisions. That is absolutlly true. Also, just because you, or anyone thinks they (EUA) are morally wrong does not give them the right to act illegaly. I have given you some reasons why software, and some other things are treated by the law the way they are. You can disagree with them, you can even continue to be ignorant, and call it 'crap', but that approach isn't going to change anything.
  14. And you can argue that EUA isn't fair, but it is not illegal, and has nothing to do with software theft, except as a lousy excuse. How about credut cards? Property of the bank! Venue tickets? Usually no way to return or resell legally, especially once you've entered the venue. Music? I don't like this song, it's faulty.. I'll just return it. Software developers realise that it might be bad for their business if users can't try the software first, so they will usually provide a trial version. But if they for whatever reason do not wish to - it's up to them. And there have been many instances where developers realised that the software really does not do its purpose and gave compensations to their customers (Win95 version of RAM Doubler, to name one). The very nature of software makes it difficult to 1) determine that it isn't faulty 2) user does not continue to use it once the original copy has been returned
  15. It's not a complex issue. It's a very simple issue. You don't need no " ". Theft is the illegal taking of another person's property without that person's freely-given consent. Software is the intelectual property of its author. You do not own it. The only way to use it legally is to do it under terms determened by the author. If you do not agree with those terms, you do not use the software.
  16. By stealing it.. "temporarily"? My agenda is software piracy (coincidently the topic here). And software piracy is just a fancy, poetic name for one kind of theft.
  17. So, you fix that by stealing? I don't see how that has anything to do with consumer protection. The software does not meet your needs, so you will steal that exact same peace of software instead of buying it?
  18. Nobody is forcing you to click the I agree button. Even this story of rebelion against the system is in common with other common criminals. Shoplifters will argue that they are stealing from large companies thate "have too much anyway". Bull - it's the poor honest paying customers that pay the price in the end!
  19. if kuslin says takeoff - I say takeoff.. we might be wrong ;) (it did look to me and to the youtube poster more like a landing too)
  20. I guess you don't know that Leopard-2 is not a pre-WWII tank ;)
  21. Su-25 crash on takeoff
  22. It all depends on the aircraft. Pump them on the MiG-29 during a no chute landing, and you get fire! (there were some pictures of the results here a long time ago..)
  23. man.. this is like soft pr0n. just when it looks like it's gonna be fun in the cockpit, you cut to some poor outside view :D but +1 for the effort ;)
  24. Wha? You've got a decent remote operating software included with every win. Actually, more decent than any third party one I've seen.
