According to the LM rep I spoke with, the performance and flight test goals are being met much earlier than scheduled, and there have been wirtually no problems with the first 'live' airframe (i.e. with production representative avionics and other systems installed) since they powered it up for the first time last October. Its first flight is due next month and they are confident it will perform as advertised from day one.

Apparently the on board computers on that thing have more processing power than two Cray computers!!!

'Scrummy' is a good word SWK. I see you're also a member of the F-23 fan club - now THAT's an airplane. I know the guy who designed it!
