GHOST HUNT
Il28 Beagle hunts ghost ship in the Black Sea

One Il28 Beagle hunts for ghost ship which sends a May-Day signal. Signal redirected, so Il flies but finds nothing. Illiushin takes off from Borcea AFB, lands at Mihail Kogalniceanu, then searches again, then back to Borcea.
Message goes from Ukraine to Russia to Finland to Canada and then again to Finland.
Destroyer Marasesti joines the search, but finds nothing. Operations cost 2 million dollars, for a ghost hunt.
Asked what the hack was with that signal and why did we had to spend over 2 million dollars to search for Santa Claus in the waters of the Black Sea, then the authorities from Canada and Ukraine simply answered: "Sorry guys, error". Sorry guys, but those 2 million dollars could be used to feed people, not to search for things Ukrainian blind radars "see" i don't know where...
