The secretary of the late John Farley was shown how the F35 jet pipe swivelled to provide some of the lift. It is reported that her comment was "it looks like a machine designed to clean out the drains". Far cleverer people than I say it is the right tool for the job.

The Tempest mock up has such a large chin that a wag on these hallowed pages named it "The Brucie". All it needs is a small rug on top of the canopy and job done.
