50 million Euros in bribes to gain an order for 15 fighters? Wow ... makes you wonder how much they were/are throwing around trying to land the USAF tanker contract. |

My curiosity has always been just where does the money come from to redesign their supposed 787 competitor? They seem to redesign it about every 18 months. I suppose if Henry Ford had kept fiddling around with the Model T design, he'd have eventually evolved it into a Ferrari.

Quote: I suppose if Henry Ford had kept fiddling around with the Model T design, he'd have eventually evolved it into a Ferrari thank heaven he didn't - the GT-40 was a far better car and the 1-2-3 finish in 1966 at LeMans was a beautiful thing. . . Tom P. |

Tom P. I agree, it's a good thing that il commenditore told the Deuce 'no' alto, having a local dealership floor covered in 250 GTO SWB's would have been a happy thing, then there wouldn't have been 240Z's |
