    Have any of the quality manufacturers built an 80 or 90 size Mig-15 yet? I don't mean Dynam either. I am wondering about all the clues for FOIL. Could it be as simple as a quality built, decent size Mig-15? The references keep following the same tract, big guy in charge, wants to rule the world, not a nice place either. Maybe it is just something as simple as an aircraft that has managed to fight and fly all over the world? The Mig-15 was everywhere and everybody had them. Think about it? Somehow, someway I keep coming back to simple. A World Dominater.

      By the way, not much scotch down here. But a lot of Knob Creek, sorta like Jack Daniels, but with hair. It kills brain cells from what I hears.

        The moment you said quality manufacturers that excluded Dynam. Ha ha. That's all I have to add to this discussion.

            Monty, makes sense but that maybe an issue.

            Hey, is it just me or do you picture Alpha sitting there reading the posts and wringing his hands together saying " yes, yes, my plan is working......mohaaaaaaa"

                        A JA37 Viggen would make a great EDF jet! Search the name in Hobbysquark to see why! That's my 120mm EDF pictured.

                          A viggen would be cool, don't see em much. Was watching a b52 doco the other night, but I suppose that would be a bit cost prohibitive for say a 2m foamy with 8 edf's and all the gear etc? Be cool though...

                                  It sure is-- this bird will be using the 70mm fan as it's easier to setup as the other twins, I will leave my second Horten stock for now but who knows... :-)

                                        Ok, so put the foil hats on and look at Alphas breadcrumbs
                                        1. Foil = EDF
                                        2. Hoot = Fast, Foil = Faster
                                        3. History:
                                          1. Military Campaigns, Projects,
                                          2. Alphas prior hints / clue’s, pattern
                                        4. Cloud Atlas:
                                          1. Story: consists of six nested stories, whereof each is read (or observed) by a main character of the next. The first five stories are each interrupted at a pivotal moment. After the sixth story, the other five stories are closed, in reverse chronological order, and each ends with the main character reading or observing the chronologically previous work in the chain. Each story contains a document, movie, or tradition that appears in a previous story.
                                        5. Ozymandias:
                                          1. A poem that describes a broken statue of a legendary king of ancient times, lying forgotten in the desert, with these words carved on its base: “My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
                                          2. An ancient Greek name for Ramses II of Egypt
                                          3. The poem Ozymandias is ironic as it mocks the “King of Kings”. What was once great is now in shambles. (Man’s Hubris)
                                        6. Foil:
                                          1. To prevent (something considered wrong or undesirable) from succeeding. (Maybe..)
                                          2. The track or scent of a hunted animal. (Na….)
                                          3. A light fencing sword without cutting edges but with a button on its point. (Na….)
                                          4. In fiction, a foil is a character who contrasts with another character— to highlight particular qualities of the other character. In some cases, a subplot can be used as a foil to the main plot. (Maybe…)
                                          5. Math’s “foil” method? (Na…)
                                        So, Historic, Fast, spawned many generations, great plane but now lies in the desert and was used to stop other other planes. And that plane is?????


                                        Why do I feel like Alpha is Geppetto yanking on strings......

                                          Good example of the Alpha train of thought:Cool:. They are usually also inspired/tied to a historically significant pilot of the subject aircraft as well.
