I’ve known a couple guys like this — the money is great I’m sure, but more than that they just get addicted to the high-speed lifestyle while serving in special ops units and can’t let go of it.

There is nothing new about this. Executive Outcomes was flying Pilatus PC-7s with mounted air-to-ground rockets.

It is cool to see 40's technlogy with modern weapons. Will someone bring back the P-51 or the Corsair?

As long as they’re targeting the right people. But over there, who can be sure?

Egypt is apparently in play as well. The latest festivities began in 2014 but the entire affair is a result of Hillary Clinton's "experience" as Secretary of State - "we came, we saw, he died." What she might have done as President is terrifying.

I’d fly those bad boys! Crop dusting bad guys is a lot more fun that dusting corn crops!
