Or planes similar to the ones the Good Ole Green Mountain Boys use - Anybody have any idea how much money they burn in fuel on their test runs? My guess is it's somewhere around $40 per minute. That's over $1600 per test flight with four planes. Probably more considering fuel costs more than $20 per second per plane when the afterburner has kicked in (e.g. during takeoff).
Anybody notice how we haven't had any major terrorist alerts since GW became a lame duck? Gosh, what a weird coincidence. It's ok though, there's still plenty of money to be made in Iraq.
