To have that slogan running as your advertising campaign at the same time there's a slew of news stories reporting that allied forces or civilians are having bombs dropped on them in error.... then that slogan takes on a new meaning.

Does absolutely no credit to the people who serve in the air force IMO. ."Aim high" is better. If in doubt use Latin.. "Per Ardua ad Astra" as used by the RAF.

Sorry... still smarting a bit at the news a MSF hospital in Afghanistan had some bombs dropped on it by our boys, probably thanks to bad intel...
