Following the recent diplomatic Crisis in the South China Seas a U.S site I use that e-mails me a joke a day sent me the following, it had me in stitches I just had to post it for you all to see <IMG alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">

Originally Reprinted from the Taiwan daily Gazette, by staff writer Wun Wing Lo:
In a heroic dogfight fought over international waters off the mainland China coast, a 60's era American built Lockheed Electra propeller airliner with 24 US Navy passenger/observers aboard chewed up one of China's best state-of-the-art supersonic fighter aircraft.
The Americans, utilizing the infrequently seen combat tactic of straight and level flight, often accomplished by relying solely on autopilot, engaged the unfortunate single seat combat jet and knocked it out of the air using only one of the EP-3's four
formidable rotating air mass propellers.
After the action the crew and passenger/observers dropped in on China's Hainan Island Resort for some much-deserved R&R as guests of the Chinese government.
