All of this we can fix easy. The hard bit will be getting the stains and smell out of the seat covers.

No wonder it crashed -- Boeing had the tail rotor all wrong. Now that we've got it resized, it just needs to be cut off and rotated 90 degrees.

Any chance we can tell Boeing the stick came away in my hand and get it fixed or swapped under Warranty?

Having used her last ounce of strength repelling the Chinook, Mother Earth gave up with predictable results.

Hi, I am from the DOD Inspector General’s office and I am puzzled as to why this helicopter is listed as “fully mission capable”
