U.S Air Force lands in Grenada, these jets take under 6 minutes to get to Trinidad at normal cruise speed, imagine at full throttle.

I gusee that this is stilll serving its assumed purpose which was to fly military air craft around the region. it was alleged that Russia was planning to use it as a military base bo attack the U.S. lol

This just goes to show how ignorant some of u are.

Your missing the point folks, this is not about Grenada, protecting the President is the F15's No.1 proirity. Which is y they leave Grenada by day & night in pairs to escort the president to & from the summit , these videos are coming soon.

If the jets are not in T&T for security reasons,then what are they there for, to waste fuel? u should try to find out how much fuel & the cost per minute to fly these jets. Grenada is small compared to the U.S & U.K but it is not as small as u think.

the f 15 jets are part of his security detail i think its 16 to be exact...and the reason why they did not land in Trinidad is simply because Trinidad does want any WAR vehicles on either of the islands in order to not show any bias to any country with which they do business with and not to strain any diplomatic ties

@emperor536 it is a different country...lol

[emperor536]

Koolyow i agree! this is protocal, the U.S , Trinidad and Grenada are all members of the OAS, so i doubt that the average Grenadian would see those planes being there as anything negative, but as a boost to Grenada's international image as a peacefull and neutral country and also for security of the region since those 3 countries has a very close relationship

There it's very close to the St. Georges University Grenada which is one of tha best medical and science Universities in the western Hemisphere the majority of students are from Europe, caribbean and the U.S.....that's because of their high standard education students who attend this university has over 90% pass on their local residential exams in thier own countries in Europe and here in the U.S...i visited there once it's like a you're in a different country, although it's sorta expensive.
