<font color=red>GW Hating Leftist Liberals have nothing to talk about...nothing to better themselves or this country. So all they can do is rag on GW and his flight. ROFL! Those guys are idiots!</font> Here is some info for the democraps to read and learn a few things about aircraft carrier landings... There are four parallel arresting wires, spaced about 50 feet (15 meters) apart, to expand the target area for the pilot. Pilots are aiming for the third wire, as it's the safest and most effective target. They never shoot for the first wire because it's dangerously close to the edge of deck. If they come in too low on the first wire, they could easily crash into the stern of the ship. It's acceptable to snag the second or fourth wire, but for a pilot to move up through the ranks, he or she has to be able to catch the third wire consistently. people.howstuffworks.com >>>>>>>>>>>>> The landing officers grade and critique the pilots during the requalification as jets traveling in excess of 100 mph snag one of three wires strung across the carrier deck and come to a screeching halt. An excellent pilot is never too high, always centered and consistently hits the second wire, evaluators said. gcn.com >>>>>>>>>>>> So it sounds like different aircraft carriers have different numbers of wires...but in all situations they are not shooting for the first wire. Oh well, the democraps will have to come up with something else to pass their time while waiting for the next two decades to get over with and possibly allow them to try a turn at the Whitehouse. <font color=red>BUSH</font> - <font color=blue>CHENEY</font> - <font color=red>GIULIANI</font> 2004, 2008, 2012...TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!!!!
