As far as the shipsets doing nicely excatly what are you referring to. It is fine we have them but show me the savings from the 3 years of developing this highly complex system that saves no money. <it seems like most of the time the only people that win with this stuff, shipsets, pbs ect are the pilots that dont fly the line and just sit on their butss on sa special assignment. I think the pbs guy even got a new bid great for a gut that never flies the line.
Dont get me wrong I like not having the flight bag but take a good hard look at how this program came about.
