Yes, sorry about the 'wacky' language LO. I got a bit carried away by a beautiful spring morning and I have now had my medication. Anyway, Lockheed Martin started it by calling the F35 'Lightning'.

I am now totally confused as to what is or is not going to be announced, if anything, about carriers, cats, Bs or Cs.

  • The cost of a catapult is prohibitive... or not
  • The B is cheaper....or not
  • The US is going to cancel the B...or not
  • The QEC engines can take it....or not
  • We can afford it - well that's not or not either way
  • We are going to buy the more capable C...or not.
It's all getting so muddled that I am almost resigned to waiting to hear what Phil has to say...or not.
