Default wildcats

Bob, you are right about the wcat having sex appeal. I have a basic theory that airplanes kind of follow the lines of the women from the area that the planes were made.

You have your Mustang, California, long legs, clean lines, tan and fit.

Wildcats- Long Island. Nice lines, well proportioned. Got some meat on her bones. Not going to rely on the airframe alone to get the job done like the california girl. She's got guts, and she'll have the respect of her airmen after a few times out.

Brewsters- made in Brooklyn in an old shoe factory. Where am I going with this?
