Albuquerque? Is that a freaking Breaking Bad reference?
I think we need to give the engineers who designed and built the F-35 the benefit of the doubt in this case. It's entirely possible that the Marine pilot was distracted by malnourishment from a lack of crayons and glue that day.
Needing to refuel between Texas and California is an interesting design choice
I wonder if the MIC will call it a pilot error even if it wasn't. Or is there such a thing as an ultra-mini insta-tornado?
Wow, a new record flight! The boys down at HQ are really close to cracking this aircraft thing!
seems like a total loss, hell yeah. more praxis than I could hope to do in an entire lifetime

People were saying in 2000 that the F-35 was a bad engineering idea. When will the West admit defeat and say goodbye to the 4 trillion that's been spent on this thing?
Lockheed Martin? More like Flintlock Shartin
Just one more govt. contract bro, I promise bro, just one more contract and this plane will be combat ready bro, I promise bro, bro
idk how the fuck you could possibly spend 4 trillion fucking dollars on this bullshit
We could have had a roubust space mining and logistics industry with that money. Be on our way to evolve as a species and make a huge dent in scarcity. Instead we decided to revamp the cold war and blow it all up to stay on oil.
