Welcome to the new PointNiner.com!

We are very proud to announce the unveiling of our revamped blog PointNiner and its new web address, www.pointniner.com. We've recently overhauled this blog site to make it the best we can for you, the visitors. This is still a work in progress, and you may see more changes in the near future. If you've bookmarked the old address, www.pointniner.blogspot.com, thanks for being a repeat offender and don't worry, the old Contact Ground .9 URL will redirect you to the new address.

Don't forget to bookmark this page and check it frequently as we are constantly updating the blog with the latest and greatest, and sometimes not so late and great news, info, pics, and video from the aerospace world.

Thanks again for your patronage and if you have any comments or suggestions on how to make this blog even better, please don't hesitate to contact us.



Thanks,

The PointNiner staff

Please pardon our dust

We're working hard here at Contact Ground .9 to bring you the best of aviation brought to you by the two guys who should probably be doing other things. With that in mind, you'll probably be seeing some changes to this site in the next couple of days, but don't worry, they should be good changes. Some may even be temporary to test the waters. We'd like to enhance the whole experience here for the users, because that's reason we even do this crap. If you have any comments or suggestions on how to improve this blog, please contact us.

Thanks,

Aaron and Steve

Boeing starts a blog on "Tankergate"

No Tankergate is not a real term, not yet at least. But if it does become the tag of what is shaping up to be a nasty fight between the Air Force and Boeing regarding the aerial refueler purchase decision, then I'd like the credit for it. Otherwise, you'll now be able to read all about Boeing's protest on their newly created blog, Tanker Facts. In it, they tell you all about how the contest was rigged, how their aircraft is better, and that French women don't shave their armpits. I think I'll subscribe to this one.
