Except, of course, a VSO stating in public that our new jet is worse than anyone elses would have been truly idiotic. I wouldn't argue that Typhoon isn't bloody good - tricky double neg for you there - b ut I know stating a world ranking of modern ac will always be contentious. Not sure whether your statement is prompted by your view of Typhoon or the man.
Anyway, I sadly won't be online to get the responses to that for a while, so you'll have to play nicely until I'm back.
