Even more amazing was engineers were designing this with paper and pencil along with sliderule.

The B-58 used a similar system.

Yes, they do look similar in the sense that they are both cars.

BCO has Pinkham’s Law: commenters WILL find a way to defend the horrendous customer. Can COTD have “That’s the Joke” George’s Law? i.e. commenters will completely miss the joke, especially when it pertains to ‘pretty sure that’s a Lambo, dude.’
