Don't know that we could accuse Riccioni of being LWF Mafia, it sounds

F-4. The Mafia were much more centered on the operational side of the

Hey, I was there at the time. Ed Riccioni was one of the staunchest
members of the LWF Mafia. He was a tremendously vocal advocate of the
concept and, after the fly-off, the F-16. He'd tell you so himself.



I wonder what he thinks about the latest model of the F-16 grossing
52,000lbs ;-)
