You may prolong it but everyone die. You maybe the most careful driver on the road but you still get into accident. You make work hard and very dedicated for your company but you still get layoff when come the time.
You maybe be the best husband but if your wife is not happy with you she will leave you.
CANBERRA (AFP) - The US military was investigating on Saturday after a B-2 stealth bomber crashed on take-off from the Pacific island of Guam, the first such incident involving the futuristic craft. Both pilots on board ejected safely as the 1.2-billion-dollar radar-evading plane, with its distinctive triangular shape, went down at Andersen airbase on the remote island, the US air force said."Two pilots from the 509th Bomb Wing were on board and ejected. They have been evaluated by medical authorities and are in good condition," it said."Emergency responders are on scene. A board of officers will investigate the accident," said the headquarters of the US air force in the Pacific.It was the second US air force crash this week after two F-15C jets collided during training over the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday, killing a fighter pilot.Crowds gathered at the crash site after the bomber, one of just 21 in the air force inventory, went down at about 10:45 am (0045 GMT).A thick plume of smoke rose over the airbase and officials closed one of its two runways, diverting planes to GuamInternationalAirport, the Pacific Daily News website said."Everybody was on their cellphones and the first thing everyone wanted to know was did the pilots make it out in time," said an eye-witness quoted by the website.Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell, here with visiting US Defence Secretary Robert Gates, confirmed the crash but did not give further details."We are grateful for the safety of the pilots," said Mike Cruz, acting governor of the US territory."The Air Force and Guam have a long-standing relationship and we help each other in this community we share, especially during times like these."The long-range bomber was visiting from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. Operated exclusively by the US, the B-2 has never crashed since first seeing combat in the air war over Kosovo in 1999.The 172-foot (52-metre) wide stealth bomber, which can carry nuclear as well as conventional weapons, has also been used in US campaigns over Iraq and Afghanistan.It emits minimal exhaust, noise and heat, making it hard to detect by radar or infra-red.Guam, in the northwest Pacific, and neighbouring US territories including the Northern Mariana Islands are considered by Washington as strategic locations in the Asia-Pacific region.Guam, population 170,000, is home to one of the largest US military naval bases in the region and 8,000 marines will soon be relocated there from Japan.The US and Japan are spending 15 billion dollars on the relocation of the marines from Japan, which is expected to further boost Washington's military strength in the Asia-Pacific.
the reason why it is shaped like that is because it makes it almost invisible in the sky from radar. It drops bombs without being seen. It is the most advanced bomber right now, and was kept a secret for a long time.
Let it be crashed more and more. I have no regret at all. This is a American plane which is made for killing innocent people around the world.
why would you have regret??? it is not your plane and you didnt fly it.. you're not the cause of the situations... i think you meant to say... you didn't care if it crash..
that's a totally wrong statement to make... american plane made to kill innocent people around the world... if it is the case, than most of the people in this world would be dead than???? c'mon now!!!! let's be real here... when there's a world... there are always going to be innocent civilian folks that get killed.. it is part of being in the WAR!!!
this person might be anti American but they sure love american dollars. That why they are alway going to a vietnamese bitch. Lao can build anything of their own can fight for them self.
Never think you are perfect, you may good but not perfect.

Nothing is perfect in nature. Nothing. Reality is imperfection. One can strive to be perfect in the mind, condition, and situation. The Buddha achieved just that. Even perfection does not last. Everything is impermanence.
