dodgy-alan 1,587 Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 That's the one John. The Breguet BR1001 Taon was up against the Fiat G-91 for a new NATO lightweight fighter.

Quickmarch 488 Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I'm outa here! Once places like India (remember I'm a Canadian) start building sophisticated aircraft, the next, obvious, step is not acceptable. Think about Locharbie. Edit; did I spell Locharbie correctly?

allardjd 1,853 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 The reference to "curry" is what did it. I still haven't a clue what it is, just what it smells like. John 1 Link to post Share on other sites
