The Navy is and has always been the poor side of the family. But that is no excuse for their lapses.
CHANTILLY, VA, US: This is with reference to Ejaz Haider’s article of May 25, titled “Hope dancing on bald men’s hair”. When I saw some Google images recently, I was horrified to note how the aircraft were parked so close to each other on the apron, and out in the open.
Their wing-tips were almost touching. And as for what the writer wrote, yes there had to be inside help. And, of course, the Navy is and has always been the poor side of the family. But that is no excuse for their lapses.
