    The pirates must of thought it was a suicide attack, considering we're using older equipment compared to them heh heh

    Great.. now some special interest group from Somolia will bitch about how we screwed up their "traditional way of life", we'll apologize and have to give them some money.

    I don't think it's self loathing, just more...modest. Believe me, if those pilots can scare off some pirates with a Seaking, those guys could probably fly loops with Apaches and pilot a Chinook under the Ambassador bridge.

    Canadians are so self-loathing.

    If this were America finding the pirate ship, the Yanks would be all "America! FUCK YEAH! USA! USA! USA!"

    But we Canadians just sit here and insult our accomplishments and ourselves.

    If this were High School, Canada would be Emo, America and Israel would be the Jocks, Britain and France most likely the Preps. The entire middle east would be the Gangsters.

    Russia and Germany would totally be those creepy goths who have a list of names in their basement, next to a freshly sacrificed child.

    I'm rambling.


    Why worry about what other people do? Besides, this is just a forum, not a representation of Canada.

    True, but I'll make fun of the Sea King until we retire it. Its a mainstay of Canadian humour, like American beer and Newfoundland.

    Ironically enough, out of all the countries that still use Sea Kings (IIRC, Britian, USA, New Zealand, a few others) ours are in the best condition and the most flightworthy. Kinda scary lol

    ROTFL ROTFL I was thinking the same thing too ROTFL

    On the positive side, the Seakings have a machine gun inside, they could have easily send a few warning shots :D

    Sea Kings also still being used by other countries like the one G.W. fly's around are much newer models. They have beefed up airframes and drive trains and vaguely resemble the one still in the air for Canada.
