279337 2004-10-10 02:51:00 >"Question: Which has the better chance of stopping an Aussie F-111 bombing raid on Aukland, the Kiwi airforce or a flock of their beloved sheep?

I might be wrong here, but an F111 wouldn't make it to NZ without in-air refuelling, and if they wanted to land here after dropping their load they'd have to find a runway not covered in sheep.

The pitiful bomb load for an F111 would do less damages than a couple of good saturday night parties, and not even a half mad Aussie can land a plane with sheep all over the runway. We have a pretty much inexhaustable resource of mobile anti-F111 devices.:|

Option Two would be nice,

Unfortunatly there will be a lot of Corporate instigated "Trade Block" scrapping first.

I think you may need to add a little Chinese flavouring in there somewere.
