Yep, this group is turning alright. Years ago you could guarantee

Any chance of some on-topic chat?

I remember reading stories about the air war in WWI, and I always wondered
why
Fokker included a third wing on that unique three-winger fighter the
Germans
used and why. I don't believe any other aircraft manufacturer built a
line
model with three wings, but I could be wrong about that.

Sopwith also built a triplane.



Comments?

PS - Like you, Duncan, I'm tired of having to wade through so much
seasonal
political bull**** in RAM in order to read of things military aviation.
In the
interests of subject purity, I've given up even commenting on such impure
intrusions on our "raison d'etre" and encourage others to follow my lead.

Bullpoopie; you have been a continual and rampant poster of political,
economic, etc., diatribes--stop acting as if you have somehow been above the
fray. Crap, you are about as dishonest about this as Art has proven to be.

Let's
just ignore that stuff when it shows up and limit our responses to a
simple
two-letter "OT" if we feel obliged to say anything at all and then move
on.
Most of us have made up our minds already anyway, so look at all the
bandwidth
we'll be able to save.
