Nice one!

If that were a model, the naysayers would be having a field day.

If someone did that here in Chicago the screaming of the local authorities would not stop for weeks. Plus the aircraft would probably get shot at.

I wonder if anyone in the Canadian defence establishment is crunching the performance and sustainment numbers of the CH-149 verses the CH-148?
