SNIP: No mierda, Dick Tracy. One of Kelly's aids to success was that no one stuck their fingers in his pies. He knew where he was going, herded his troops in the right direction, overrode (mostly) the impediments (Viz. A11 security) and got the job done in an outstanding manner. Now every swinging SOB sticks his nose in the tent and stirs the pot - it's a wonder anything gets done, and all the while Congress is both slowing things down with investigations and continuing pressures to build something/anything 'in my district' and meanwhile the overhead keeps piling up day after day, year after year, and it's all added to the cost of the airplane. The 22 should have been in service test in 1990. And by 1998 the F-22 should have been cancelled as obsolete. |
