And they should have stopped when they got there and waited until they got noticed, as only Harriers could!  ;) ;D

But 46 Pegasuses (Pegasii?) at 100% throttle certainly WOULD have got noticed!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Great image  ;D

You can always get some of these:

"My model is right! It's the real world that's wrong!" -global warming scientist

An armor guy, who builds airplanes almost exclusively, that he converts to space fighters-- all while admiring ship models.

You can always get some of these:


If their Seaships and Airships would make up their minds what they want, and if the Government would actually pay for them......

That's always assuming that the 'Not on our patch' USN Admirals don't get the VTOL version cancelled of course....
