“Putin reels!”
Steely Dan?
Your everlasting summer you can see it fading fast
So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last
Well you wouldn’t even know a diamond if you held it in your hand
The things you think are precious I can’t understand
Are you reelin’ in the years?
Stowin’ away the time

Are my eyes fooling me or was that chopper on the ground? I saw what looked like people exiting.

I’d love to see Putin’s face after Ukraine lobs in a Tomahawk.

This incident proves that the purpose of the tail rotor is to keep the pilot cool. For when it comes off he starts to sweat.

From what I caught on that video, the aircraft was not spiraling. I’m wondering if the flight controls were intact enough to do a running landing without the tail rotor?

What I do know is the day and age of armored vehicles and helicopters in warfare has changed much since drones can take them out with ease.

Dear FRiends, Our FReepathon is our next concern. We still need to raise approximately $4k before the end of the month to meet our goal! And I think we’re gonna need a little prayer here. Thank you very much and God bless you.

The 30-second clip, recorded from the drone’s perspective, captures smoke rising from the wreckage.

I assume the footage of the burning wreck was taken from another drone as the hit on the chopper would have destroyed the first drone

This is small potatoes. Suchmois has video of recent strikes in Crimea which took out several planes and helicopters.
