But can it bow to the crowd like the Harr....................
No.

But neither does it need to. As a supersonic vertical lander the crowd should bow to it.

The problem for me though, with all those trap doors and various other scrinsons moving about, is that I just see a big, flashing U/S sign!!
I had a friend in the old days who thought the same about retractable undercarriages.

His dad did not trust airspeed indicators and thought it was safer to listen to the wind in the wires.
