Re: Civil Aviation Development & Discussion

That was just too bizarre! I'm surprised they are not taken into custody for risking the life of passengers! They could have fought it out after the aircraft landed! :!:

Re: Perspectives on the global economic meltdown

Amit Singh, Quit blowing your chinese masters. The principal defect of the east asian mind is it's inability to abandon mercantilism .
