And as a former Crown Prosecutor the opinion(s) carry some weight.

International Law OPAC 2000 says with regard to child soldiers the age is 18. That's a start. And the OMG, he MAY have called a female guard a bitch. Yippity doo dah day. That really makes him a terrorist doesn't it. Even though they tortured him and threw him in jail illegally for 10 years. I'd have some words to say that you've probably never heard before if they did that to me.

You posted it, you point out which is accurate. He spews out biased right wing garbage regularly so show this rant isn't one of those. There is nothing substantiated in the whole GD thing.

Ezra Levant? OMG! I'm sure he knows everything that went on in a US military prison in Cuba. And I usually don't waste my time with the emoticon crap.

For any of the aviation types out there, something that crossed my mind back when the MH370 thing happened, is why, after 9-11, didn't they re-design the xponder so it can't be shut off, at least airborne? Hook the thing to a WoW switch and all you would have to do is plug in the squawk code.. They might not be still looking for the darn thing.

You better hope they do, otherwise you're out of luck.

Ah nope. They're actually doing it because they want to cash in on new development in renewable energy ratherthan dragging their knuckles through a coal mine as Trump prefers.

Damascus used to be a nice city last time I was there.

A hundred miles N of TO.

Are you still working on that xponder thing, or shall I help you out?

I've got a lot of air miles. Comes in handy if I decide to go back home for Xmas etc.

Except I know how a Xponder works.

Logic and common sense tells me that in war zones there are usually a lot of dead people.Having been in a couple.

Bush wanted to attack somebody after 9-11, but I think he knew the connection to Iraq was not feasible, so they had to re-erect the WMD story, which of course also turned out to be phony. But back to the thread, I think it's pretty far fetched to believe Bush orchestrated 9-11 and then went into Iraq simply to create a diversion.

Well I guess the US was too dependent on Saudi oil to dare going after them.

There certainly was Saudi involvement. Most of the hijackers were Saudi.

Except there is no solid proof he did even that.

You STILL haven't been able to google up how they work?

I had to go looking for a previous article I came across to support the comment I made above. Took me a while to find it. Maybe you've read it, or others similar http://www.nationalobserver.com/2017/07/07/opinion/what-if-omar-khadr-isnt-guilty

Which is why I was explaining to you the airspeed restrictions in controlled airspace under 10k.

Also I think the evidence Khadr actually threw the grenade is suspect. The testimonies given at the "kangaroo court" at Gitmo conflict.

ATC knows when they are om, or off, and what code they are squeaking. There's a little hint for ya.

Let me know when you think you've googled up enough about it. I'll get the popcorn.

I'd explain to you what they do but it's a little complicated and I don't have the time to waste.

Either is XPDR. But here is a picture of one.
