i love it

i love the typhoon, whenever i have seen and heard it i stand in awe. the guys who drive it, i have spoken with some and they love it. why shouldnt they be. its brand spankin cuttin edge technology which we have built at home.

yes its late, yes its expensive but if there is a job for it to do then im sure it will devour it.

just an aside soddim, can you shed light on what was wrong with the jaguar when it first came out. i spent many a happy time at coltishall drooling over that too.

any lets not get too excited about the typhoon, but also lets look at the acomplishment of british (ahem european) engineering and design. its easy to berate something that only a handful of people have had first hand experience of.

give me 1 british (grrrr european) aircraft any day and i would pay 15 times more than i would for an american equivalent.
