RE: BD-10J
You know, it's a shame that this airplane didn't quite make it. IMHO, the concept was well ahead of it's time. Today's technology and newer, lighter & stronger materials would certainly have yielded much better integrity for that particular airplane. Yes, we now have the Javelin, but the BD-10 was a better looking airplane because of it's military F-15 like twin rudder appearance IMO. If that particular aircraft could be re-done today and maybe 10% bigger.....WOW, think about it..... Now if we could just find some filthy rich entrepreneur to take on the challenge!!! Regards,
