@SomeMoreNews@drmistercody@katystoll@MovieHooligan By comparison, the F-15's was 2.75, and the F-16's 3.55. Have you really swallowed the Fighter Plane Mafia's propaganda so hard you didn't check the stats?!
Cody.
I like you.
I like you a lot, in fact.
But I would be surprised if this wasn't journalistic malpractice...
@SomeMoreNews@drmistercody@katystoll@MovieHooligan What *the fuck* was 20:29?
In it's first 10 years of service, the F-15 (closest pervious-gen comparison, I think) crashed 45 times, with 15 deaths.
The F-35, in its first 10 years, crashed 13 times - with just 1 death, that was deemed due to pilot error.
@SomeMoreNews@drmistercody@katystoll@MovieHooligan Comes off favourably on accident rate too:
In early 2025 (with >1 million hours flown, and 1300 aircraft in service), the F-35's Class A mishap rate (ie: causing death/permanent disability, destruction of an aircraft, or >$2,5 million in damages) was 1.5 per 100,000 flight hrs.
@KWend_nwo@MrKRudd It will be both.
If you think China shows us carriers, stealth aircraft, etc, are obsolete - then answer me this, why are they building their own?
@darienspaceship@friendlyjordies Anyone using 'fag' as an insult in this day and age...
They're either really really old (and probably going a bit senile), or a 6 year old spewing the worst words he knows.
@arters_@Tenayuca2427@Moondancerr000@AndersSchroder My view is, if you don't wanna tell the original story - fine, but tell your own story under your own name.
Don't yoink the name of another story and distort people's idea of it...
@foice_aglc@Souls_Frequency It is if it's done well.
Gets a bad reputation cause of dodgy chippys.
But as long as you don't oversalt/overcook the fish, get rid of excess oil after frying, and cook the chips properly so they're not floppy -
Then, well, ambrosia :)
@Souls_Frequency Gun was never loaded, relax :)
I got no problem with you - I wanted to put that there for the multitude of fools who genuinely don't seem to understand British food.
@GrahamH82724528@friendlyjordies Precisely - it's called sincerity.
Jordan has never in his life had a meeting about PR, or image consultation, or any such guff.

@TheIronGod2@friendlyjordies - closed loopholes in permanent residency visas.
- closed loopholes in family visas
- closed loopholes in student visas
- closed loopholes in work visas.
They *are* the toughest government on migration since Hawke.
@TheIronGod2@friendlyjordies - shut down a bunch of BS courses that don't actually teach anything, but are set up purely to farm migrants pretending to be students who then use loopholes in the visa program to visa hop
- which Labour also cracked down on - both dodgy visa vendors and those loopholes.
