Deadly Giant Hornets

[OhFarouk]

yes but that is on the chopping list. the newer stealth fighter is replacing it.its going to be a while but last i heard they were planning to retire the fa-18

Oh okay.

Actually there was another similar airplane called the Gnat!

Blessings.

PS: the plane I really like is the Warthog: ugly looking thing, but it's similar to a bathtub that floats slowly through the sky and is really hard to shoot down. It can take a lot of punishment. Reminds me of a cockroach that, after being stamped on and left for dead, just gets up an crawls away...

Blessings.

the a-10? it can be shot down, but not by what you have seen.

The Warthog does kind of resemble a hornet or bumble bee.

 

[jasoncran]

post a pic of that? I have seen the a-10 in action in combat and in training.

What I mean is in its blundering, slow movements, easy to swat at but hard to make it go away...

Blessings.

uhm I can shoot it down with the proper system. its not fool proof. I used to train for that. that is why I said and know a lot about the birds we use.

Do you happen to know if hornets could be kept commercially like bees? or maybe they don't produce honey enough. (Serious question...)

read the link I posted about africanised bees and yes they can. I can ask a man who raised bees in his back yard and always sold/ gave away honey. he has known me since I was three.

 

[reba]

My sting can hurt worse than a hornet.... What would be the need Farouk? I see the need of honey bees...

 

[OhFarouk]

This from wiki dot answers dot com:

"Humans do sometimes eat wasp honey: better than hornet honey, worse than bee"

Blessings.

Kind of shows that this sort of discussion can undergo the domino effect....
