My personal list runs to 131. You don't really want to read them all, do you?




Someone mentioned Apache.... You can't count those programmes where the ISD and even the product itself was redefined to make it look as if it was achieved. And delivering training and long term support is an integral part of the programme. On Apache, Westland were asked to cut the production rate in half, extending that phase by years. They refused. I guess that means the perceived success was DESPITE MoD, not because of them!
