Those helicopters are going to get a lot of flight hours with all the purging the Taliban is going to be doing.

Hanging someone from a helicopter was an over the top execution method in the movie "Scarface". Over there, it is just another thing that happens on Monday.

I was told that the Taliban were going to be good boys this time around?

All I've read from liberals is there's no chance of them even getting the aircraft started let alone airborn

Honestly, not the worst way to go out at the hands of the Tollybon.

Surprosed they haven’t managed to get one in the way of a plane taking off yet.

I thought the US backed Northern Alliance had the Taliban on the run in the first few months and it would be over in less than a year. |

The real test will be to keep them flying. American military helicopters are maintenance hogs. The big mistake is the US Military was it didn’t strip out the stability augmentation systems or at least corrupt the software. |

So It must be video of one of our guys flying that. (That said, I have no idea from where or when this video was taken really either). |

Taliban just doing Taliban stuff. If there is any question about who is in charge, this should clear it up. There are free helicopter rides for those that don’t like to answer questions in short order.

Quoted: They don't know how to maintain them. They won't be airworthy for long. View Quote |

I hope the person hanging is a commie, at least. Commies and helicopters go together like a fly and a fly swatter.

Quoted: I'm sure we've left piles of parts, and it's already been documented that we've left pallets of cash. With all of the other classified data that's been left behind for them, I'm sure they have service manuals and enough spare cash to buy some Chinese help. Hell, why don't we throw in a few F14 engines for Iran while we're at it, with $100 bills used as packing material in the crates. View Quote As long as the big guy gets his cut. |

A dictator is a creative dictator.
You get bored killing the same old way everytime, gotta keep it fun and new. (I realize the “taliban” isn’t a “dictator”…) |

I demand to see the 5988. Fucking cocksuckers probably don’t even have drip pans under when they land.

Taliban? fuck no. You just don't get in a UH60 and fly it around like driving a Hummer.
Traitorous evil ANA we taught to fly the damn things yep, there ya go. They will be broken down and not flying in a matter of months. No parts and no maintainers. We should just bomb the entire lot of them out now to stop that crazy shit. |

Everybody wants to talk helicopter rides until the country boys with strong religion are hanging rainbow-empire pedo compradors from a spinny boi. Then it's oh fuck, we need to import more strong brown women to teach our deplorables gender studies.

That looked like someone fell out with a safety strap or something to me, not a hanging.
Although that would be a pretty effective psy-op for the citizens I suppose,flying low with a corpse dangling. This goes out to all those fuckers who are ok with bring afghanis here. How bout fuck no. |

View Quote I'm sure they've got some homegrown pilots plus the Chinese have a copy of the Blackhawk and I'm sure they and the former Soviet bloc countries have plenty of people who can fly and maintain them for a paycheck. Same thing they do in the Middle East, African countries, etc.- just hire people to do what your own can't. I'd bet money we left a pile of parts there and even though it'll be limited, they'll be able to pull parts from others to keep a number of them flying for years. With as much money as we apparently left them they'll probably be able to buy parts off our "allies" that we've sold Blackhawks to as well. |
