Yeah, so they threw you in over your head. Sorry about that. If they let you sink, it's not all on you and don't be afraid of the next gig because not all companies are like that. As others mentioned, I'm also entirely self-t

Funny that they wanted the MIGs to go to Germany first and then given to the USA, in exchange for replacement jets. It looks like a very thinly veiled attempt at denying direct involvement. Everyone knows those MIGs are going to be given to
