Quote:There are a couple of red flags that I see in the story, the first one being how the contract was awarded.  Why was it awarded as a "single source" contract when that isn't the case?  If I really cared or wanted to take the time, I would look it up myself but I wonder how much money L3 donated to the democrat party?  Why award it to a company that has never built such a thing, when a company already builds them, and why award the contract at double the price?

 

L3 built some crew aircraft trainers that I see every day, and the the engineering and quality is well...  let me just say that I know kids that would and could design it better.  The product that they delivered is somewhat "usable", but it's basically junk.  The documentation (or lack thereof) is even worse.

 

The final question is, why was this passed silently on 0bama's last day in office?
