I remember my grandfather letting me help him “build” our house. Und

They never entered U.S. or Canadian air space but they weren’t exactly in Russian air space either. Russian Tu-95 Strategic Bomber “‘The flight was carried out in strict accordance with international rules for the use of airspace,’ said Lieutenant General Sergei Kobylash, Commander of Russian long–range aviation." ¹ Were they just out for a friendly little fly-by to say “Hi” and make sure everything’s okay here in North America? Wouldn’t you think their presence might be a little more pressing in the Ukraine these days? Not that I am trying to encourage them, mind you, but it does make me a little curious as to what they might be up to. “President Vladimir Putin in 2007 revived the Soviet-era practice of sendin
