Wow, hasn't a lot happened in the last 12 hours
Yes I agree.

It really is time to leave this thread completely.

I will stick to SC, where people respond or don't post unless they are able to monitor.

Good luck with this thread everyone.

Ok .. The fuselage looks tapered and suggests something un-civilian?? Are we seeing something military with unusual civilian type engines such as the A-10 Tankbuster???

Yep, the SkyFox Corporation SkyFox, which wasn't actually a Boeing machine - just renamed through acquisition. A sad contortion of a great aeroplane! RR
