  1. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.

  2. "Two planes were involved in a near-miss collision at JFK Airport…" "Delta pilots slammed on the brake just in time to avoid tragedy — the plane carrying over 150 people stopped just 1,000 feet away from the American Airlines aircraft."

  3. Remember this when military pilots clown you for playing flight simulator… because they just got a more expensive one lol…

  4. Looks faker than mobile games

  5. "More pilots die in training than in combat…." When we go to war with China, that statistic will certainly change.

  6. So cool playing video game in the air… down some more Chinese Migs…

  7. Pretty BS tech for 70mil

  8. if 1/3 of pilots get killed at traning, it means its not about combat but about flying planes…

  9. Goodbye China/Russia, you chose this. 🙄

  10. I'd say it's BS and all about money! Puttering around in a Conard push prop isn't jet fighter training!

  11. OH BOY! MORE WAR PROPAGANDA, this is a sick society.
