'Even with all the technology - it still comes down to the training and guts of the guy behind the wheel or gun...and I am not too impressed by the Europeans...'

I presume you don't class Brits as Europeans as I don't - the USAF is pretty impressed with RAF pilots:

I have trained a quite a number of British (and Irish) pilots, and I am always amused, if not puzzled, by the differences in those trainees who consider England "Europe" and those who do not.

As I have replied; "I thought that England was English, not French."

My bad, I suppose...

I still believe that England should turn it's back on Continental Europe and formally join policalicaly with America.

Dad would smile.

I certainly don't class the Brits as Sitzpinklers like so many other Euros...
