 scientific principles have reverted to their ancient status as mystic,
 is the concept of RF interference newsworthy.

Spectators watching the Patrouille de France aerobatic team perform during 
the MAKS air show at the Zhukovsky airfield outside Moscow on Saturday.


ZHUKOVSKY, Moscow Region -- The jamming equipment made by Aviakonversia is 
so effective against U.S. planes and missiles that it apparently provoked 
an angry phone call to the Kremlin from U.S. President George W. Bush in 
the first days of the Iraq war.
