Since I believe this is war and I'm rooting for my side, I hope the thing flops. Still, as an aviation buff, I'd love to watch a touch-and-go. -- Dan C172RG at BFM |

The winner will dominate the business and the loser's country will suffer economically. and I'm rooting for my side, I hope the thing flops. Still, as an aviation buff, I'd love to watch a touch-and-go. I like it beeing in service and generating business. Actually, the 380 would likely be a boon to the economy around here (Mobile, Alabama) because Brookley Field would probably get a lot of maintenance and component manufacturing business. Overall, though, if the 380 is a big success it will hurt Boeing and the U. S. -- Dan C172RG at BFM |
