Hmmm... Am I completely wrong if I just wonder why there are those small rockets that are separated after flying a while? What would they do in a AA missile?

Yeah, according to Wikipedia this SAM missile flies with Mach 4 speed, has an effective range of 50â55 km (31â34 miles). Engament altitudes up to 27 km (88,500 feet). That kind of explains this heavy duty design. Quite impressive...

I mentioned from finnish tv-series in last game in sunday nights co-op. The funny part starts somewhere around 02:55
Bored of short television programs?
They put some cameras onboard a coastal liner called MS Nordnorge, sendt the whole trip from Bergen to Kirkenes live on national televisoin, its a well over 5 days trip... Warning, it's a lot of water...

I have trouble finding motivation to watch even very short TV shows, not to speak about 134 hours. Crazy norwegians. At least the time counter looks funny...

This is pretty friggin' cool - the scenes being broadcast right now are gorgeous!
The trip actually started a week ago Anguis, was finished Wednesday I think, but the whole show is recorded and available.
A bit of background:
Hurtigruten, or Coastal Line, is a 100 year old shipping route, covering most of our coast. It was used for both passenger and goods transport before roads (and eventually, railroads build of the the Germans). Lately (last 20 years or so), it have become tourist attraction, foreigners like to travel on boats, enjoying the shifting nature along the coast, and finally, the midnight sun.
About half way in the video, you are close to where I'm from, breed, born and rised just 25 km east of Rørvik. There you will also see one of the old boats used (and still used) in traffic, quite a notch up, ain't it?
LOL, sorry Niki, but it's only the French who's able to "invent" something like this. Deployed in the Algerian War I notice, imagine how those wheels cope with the Shaharian sand ;D
