    Russian bomber cuts into Japanese airspace

    TOKYO - A RUSSIAN strategic bomber briefly entered Japanese airspace over the Pacific south of Tokyo on Saturday, prompting 22 Japanese military aircraft to scramble, officials said.
    The foreign ministry said it had immediately filed a strong protest with the Russian embassy over the incident which occurred for about three minutes from 7.30am (6.30am Singapore time).

    russia seems to keep pushing, wonder who's going to be the first to push back.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
