2008 Georgian spy plane shootdowns
It also claimed that white smoke trails such as seen behind the missile on the footage usually occur from land-to-air missile launches, and never with air-to-air missiles.
“This is not a full list of inconsistencies in the obviously edited video footage. [The footage does not give] a clear picture of when and where the video was recorded. If watched carefully, one can clearly see two roads parallel to the shoreline,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said. “But there aren't such roads in the indicated area of Abkhazia’s coast. Abkhazia's famous sand beaches - 100 meters in width - are not seen in the footage, even though they can be seen by satellite.”
White Star Line
Even before "Oceanic" had been completed, White Star had already started making plans for a considerably large addition to their fleet. In September 1898, before his health began failing, Thomas Ismay negotiated the terms for the orders for the last passenger liner he would ever order for the line he'd built. This time around, plans were essentially the same as they had been with "Oceanic", only taking considerable more steps in innovation. While staying with the trend in focusing more on comfort than speed as had been set with "Cymric" and "Oceanic", Ismay's plans called for a new passenger liner of dimensions the world had never seen, and her chosen name was to be "Celtic", a name taken and reused from the original "Oceanic" class. The initial designs for "Celtic" had her at 680 feet in length, a tad bit shorter than "Oceanic", but with a greater breadth of her predecessor at 75 feet. Additionally, while the "Oceanic" had set the record for length, "Celtic" would triumph in tonnage, weighing in at just over 20,000 tons.
