Hmmm,

A phrase often heard in the fifties and sixties comes to mind ...

"Well ... Back to the old Drawing Board."

The Chicoms have already picked it up and are currently replicating it, that is those parts they didn't supply in the first place......

They shouldn't feel too bad...when I was a kid I used to build model airplanes, and I couldn't get them to fly right either. One of the many reasons I decided not to become an aeronautical engineer.

The one glider that I DID get to fly right flew away and landed on the roof of a junior high school. Never did get it back.

I was thinking Bahama Route 549, don't have a Florida sectional handy, but that reference sounds exceedingly familiar to me!
