Pilots making a cup of tea: Kettle check, it's full, switch on. Tea bag is looking good, in the cup. All good. Quick milk check, sniff, smells fine. Add hot water, stir 5Gs. Wife has entered, asks am I talking to my tea again. Affirmed. Cleared for cuppa.

Hmmm, sorry to be a party pooper, but the United States refused Britain help in two world wars until it had no other option. And it's recently been revealed that the USA seriously discussed aiding Argentina in the Falklands War because an Argentine victory would be "more beneficial to the United States". The USA as an ally is something that should be left to Hollywood and teenagers on Facebook.

Argentina had a crippled economy and technically still does, that's why they tried to take back the Falklands in the first place.

Would not be able to travel at top speed in low altitudes even at full power. If i'm correct no plane has ever been able to exceed the 1000mph barrier below 900m/near sea level due to air density/pressure. Top speeds are always achieved at height. 30,000-40,000+ feet
