Harrier off runway KFRG

I love how that story is accompanied by a picture of an F-16...brilliant! Good to hear there were no injuries though.

edit: Damn, beat me to it:-D

Because the Eastern NC reporter, despite likely having AV-8s fly over his/her/their house daily, cannot tell an AV-8 from an EA-6 from an F-16 from a horse's rear end. Media covers aviation story and this surprises you how? :D
 
Glad no one was hurt in this...

Ok nittany, I can beat this reporter one... seeing as how at least the pic is of a US aircraft. For my last birthday, I recieved a paper weight with the words "US Navy F-15 Hornet fighter jet". I take the thing out of the package, laughing, only to discover I'm holding a die cast SU-27 in my hand. And to top it off, the crest on the clock that came with it is the Army crest.

You're at an aviation school and you don't know why the media screws this stuff up ALL the time?

I understand that their ability to use google image search must be lacking. I was just trying to put my emotions down at the time and thats all that would come out :D Also, dropkick murphy's ... seen them soo many times and they NEVER get old!
