What a fascinating plane! We've seen them land and take off at Ocracoke Island on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I wonder if the safety is improving on them...?
Michael Gamble
Super! The perfect shot.

I wonder what the procedure is for that thing if you lose an engine.

Yes that is very possible

I am amazed that it's still a legal flying machine. It killed how many people in its career? At the time, reportedly, no service wanted it, but the politician, who's state had the biggest contract for its manufacture rammed it through in the Pentagon budget.

I love the smell of lobbyist money in the morning?
