Many thanks for the replys: sorry but relying on the Mrs who thinks a healthy interest in aviation is "boring and pointless" so you can see what I am up against. To be quiet frank the range of aircraft discussed last night ranged from Rutan's to Avanti's to F22's so you can see the issue I have!!!!
And yes I know the F35 has, if at all, barely flown, more like the X-35 of course....I was being ironic about seeing that particular aircraft hence the "???!!"
However I will try and get a bit more info from her to see if I can be helpful to you all.....
