aerobat95 Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 Interesting video....makes you appreciate what we have here in the states a bit more..... Quote
Piloto Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 Excellent video, very well made and documented. It portrays the reality of flying in other parts of the world. Gives you an idea how good this people are with limited resources. That would be Obama's plan for NextGen. José Quote
richardheitzman Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 Al Jazeera is NOT one of the most respected news organizations in the world. Where the hell did you get that drival from? I spent 4 years in the Middle East and EVERYONE including the arabic people wished that Al Jazeera would Shut the F up. They are a propaganda tool for the radical fanatics. If you want to post videos from that organization then do it some where else. "oh I don't want to start a political discussion". pure drival R Quote

lahso Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 Thanks to Barry for posting the youtube link. I appreciate it. Jeff, no one is proposing hate of anyone. That is silly, and taking the conversation down to that level is not necessary. Quote

DaV8or Posted June 5, 2011 Report Posted June 5, 2011 I enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting. I don't give a rat's ass that it was on Aljazeera's website. I watched the whole thing and managed not to kill any Jews or burn an American flag. It didn't seem to inspire me to make an effegy of George Bush either. In fact, here a day later, I can safely say that what ever propaganda was inbedded in that video or on that site had no influence on me at all. They will have to try harder. Alternative points of view are always welcome in my opinion. I listen to Fox news and NPR. It was a video about flying DC-3s in Columbia. That's it. If it had been a video about how to turn 172s into flying bombs to kill the infidels, well, that might have annoyed me. Quote

meddesign Posted June 5, 2011 Author Report Posted June 5, 2011 oops delete a comment. back to aircraft, it is a great video. I loved the "flight Engineer" I wonder if they were running LOP. How about that mechanic I imagine he will fix your Mooney in the mud. Quote
lahso Posted June 5, 2011 Report Posted June 5, 2011 No, you won't change my mind. I'm glad Dave didn't kill any Jews or burn the flag (self restraint is best), Jeff will take credit for his hateful-now-disdain discourse, and I'll continue to boycott Aljazeera, choosing my news elsewhere. Now, we're all happy? Quote
PTK Posted June 5, 2011 Report Posted June 5, 2011 It's not good to have hate. It is pure poison to the mind of the one expressing it. It is better to learn to forgive and move on. As far as news sources it is good to have a balance. Quote
