#1 But is it Herky Bird Driver proof? Never underestimate the ability of the MAC AMC to misdrop something.

#6 Dropping Michael Moore would result in a similar ending as the attempts to airdrop tanks. At best, you could palletize him, and slide him off the ass end of a C-5A like they do the Sheriden.
