    You have to admit, "Bombadier" is an unfortunate name for a passenger aircraft.
    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

        Do you consider "burning the candle at both ends" to be wasteful or efficient?

            It's what Americans use to refer to Bombardier.

              So, you have nothing to say about Canadian share of the world's space launches/military aircrafts and bring a Canadian-made remote manipilator for a FOREIGN spaceship as a proof of your greatness?

              Boy, we launched the world's first sputnik and the world's first spaceman when you were busy inventing pottery and trying to find the way how to get rid of the British queen as your head of state (the task you still fail).

              You need to read up on history.
              I always read history. But it's you who need to stop lying about history.

              The Paris Air Show crash in 1973 of the Tu-144 was because the Anglo-Brits found the leak and leaked false designs to the Russians. Who then used them and crashed.
              The Paris airshow of 1973 wasn't the first flight of the Tu-144 (and even not the last flight). The crash wasn't because of the leakage or something else, but because of the French Mirage that trying to photograph Tu-144 advanced canards.

              Tu-144; maiden flight - 1968; introduction - 1975
              Concorde: maiden flight - 1969; introduction - 1976.

              The Tu-144 couldn't even maintain supersonic cruise without afterburners. WEAK.
              At the beggining, later the problem was solved.

              Canada never built a supersonic passenger liner. But Canada did build the Avro Arrow, which is 1000x cooler than the Tu-144 or any jet the Russians had at the time.

              So, you once tried to build a mediocre interceptor, but failed (or cancelled the project because your big brother US of A, asked you to do so).

              And you consider this is the greatest Canadian achievement? That says a lot about "superiority" of your engineers!

              LOL

                The expression or literally?

                Literally: It depends if you need a 30or 60W bulb replacement.

                Expression: Both, depending on if you need to get one thing done now or get lots done over time.

                  You seem to be operating under the assumption that Canada is not the 51st state?

                  These are all Russian lies. You did nothing but launch rockets into the air aimlessly. You fool no one.

                  Tu-144; maiden flight - 1968; introduction - 1975
                  Concorde: maiden flight - 1969; introduction - 1976.
                  They rushed it to service, as evidenced by the poor reliability and slow speed.

                  At the beggining, later the problem was solved.
                  By "resolved" you mean, the plane was grounded from passenger service.

                  Mediocre? It was the fastest interceptor by far at the time.

                      BS. Tu-144 is still the fastest passenger airliner ever built. And it's aerodynamic was far superior.

                          No, you're confusing it with the Tu-144L. A common mistake by ignorant people.
