Nope. CH-148 has a short work platform up front on transmission deck, no sliding window, and stub winglet on the sponsons.

F-111 was General Dynamics. The EF-111 were rebuilt by Grumman. Grumman also built the E-2’s and C-2, both flying.
On a grand scale, investing in DeLorean, Fiskar Automotive, or Moeller Skycar.
While IFF has progressed, the human operating it hasn’t. IFF system can and do fail. Then there’s failure of the operator, not turning the system on, not loading the proper identification codes, not having the proper encryption codes. Once you have a BVR fratricide, the ROE will change to visual identification and now…
Every time we allow BVR kills, we either shoot down our own airplane or the pilot has second thoughts and visually ID our own airplane. Happened in Vietnam, Desert Storm I and II. That last time that happen, the fighter was over Iraq in a no fly zone, controller gave him the green light to shoot the plane down since…
If your car can decelerate at 1 g, essentially you are hanging straight down.
Original prototypes didn’t have the huge door, just the door that is now used for the main engine auxiliary inlet.
It it was real, that is one giant multi-rotor copter considering the winglet is about 8 feet long.
Definitely not a 76.
What about the time when Caddy thought they would have a chance at winning when the Audi car developed transmission problems. 4 minutes later, Caddy guys were standing there going “WTF just happened?” as the Audi car pulled out of the pit with a new transmission.
That was not how skunk works operated. Kelly Johnson expected his engineers to be on the shop floor the moment the drawings were released. Engineers would spend 1/3 of their time on the shop and the shop workers were expected to be in the design meetings.
What about no engineer should be more than 100 feet from the production floor?
Nope. Physical buttons allows you to type in a number without having to look down. Try that with a touch screen.
You forgot that it came with a set of tires designed for the car that were corner specific. Then the class action lawsuit happened and they changed the alignment specs so it took regular tires.
The problem with flying cars is the guy who takes your investment and spend it on everything but engineering.
He did land safely at another airport according to the FAA report. http://www.asias.faa.gov/pls/apex/f?p=1…
I had a squirrel run across the front wheel of my bicycle missing it by about 2 inches. When I turned back to see where the squirrel went, it was busy humping another squirrel.
