Here's a three-parter in German, but the pictures
tell it all. Hard-core fighter nuts will "get it".

fascinating Danf!

I've alway quite liked the Starfighter - i think i must have a thing about T-tails

they've always looked somewhat fragile to me though - especially that undercarriage!

love the dated music!

It's really the only aircraft you can compare to
the EE Lightning -- both extreme minimalist
a/c designs.

Kelly Johnson (who?) went to Korea and talked
with the pilots about what their ultimate fighter
would be, went home, rolled-up his sleeves, and
BAM! -- Skunkworks produces the Starfighter in
an amazingly short period of time! Simultaneously
held airspeed, altitude and rate of climb records.

Gazillions made internationally, a few still flying.

Danf.
