- I bow to superior knowledge. Yes, the CF-105 was the "Arrow"
- yet, for some reason, when someone first suggested Avro as the company,
- I thought not. I stand corrected, thank you. I guess that's why I offered
- to share what I know about the F-16 and F-111 and left it at that.
-
- I should've taken my offer as advice, maybe.
- I only worked for General Dynamics, though I did work *at* McDonnell-Douglas
- for a while. So I also know a little about B-24, B-32, B-36, B-58, F-15,
- F-18, & AV-8B, but not much. I know a *lot* about the A-12, but so what?
- I can't talk about it and probably never will be able to :-( even if it
- gets declassified, because I'd never get released from my commitments.
-
- As a modeller, my specialty is really WWII tanks, so no wonder I forget stuff
- about "blowtorches" and "windmills"
