Excuse me I need a moment to compose myself after this tragedy. Ok that's enough.

Can't say I'm surprised, nor disappointed. Hummer was the biggest waste of money ever. >:(

"Hummer, the off-road vehicle"..............that was used for the school run, shopping, taking the dog to the park for a walk. The closest that 99.9% of these wagons got to off road was running over a blade of grass trying to grow at the edge of the road as the driver lost concentration whist using his cell phone

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Darn. ::)

Actually I've always thought that the original Military Hummers looked cool, but these civilian SUV's are ugly and like others have said, a waste of money. Jeeps are better anyway. ;)
