Re: F414 Flames - how about paying for the technology first before you start
ranting - we're still waiting for a %age of all those bucks you've earnt
since sending a few Rolls' over in '44 to show you how they work for free!

Also, what makes a 'tactical' engine - you mean it can't be used in a
strategic attack aircraft - crap engine then isn't it? Ah forgot, strategy
isn't in the US military dictionary - just get out there and blast 'em to
bits.
