I've heard that the USA was developing a secret aircraft named "aurora".

The rumor say that it will be an extremely fast (more than mach 4) bomber...

Someone here know more about it ?

If I recall the aurora is some sort of gay french circus lion?

Warthog, if you click on that link, you might get the urge to hang yourself. There is plenty "string" supplied in that thread...

yeah I saw it.........I like the idea that a FORMER F-14 pilot who has been a lawyer for years can jump in the right seat of a C-130 and do a LAPES one week (with zero training, and no loadmaster) and the next week can get "checked out" for a hypersonic spy plane by reading some docs then go jump in the front seat of same aircraft and turn it from a "check ride" over Alaska to an ops mission over NK!!. <rolling eyes so hard they almost come out my ears> lol

Yeah, my wife couldn't understand why I've laughed so much at the last 2 episodes that I couldn't breath.

when you dont have cable TV JAG is as close as you can get to decent military entertainment, that thing with Mr. Striesand a few years ago was an embarrassment I stopped watching THAT after just a few episodes. But I like JAG and always have, just never cared all that much for the Harm character and when they were doing that endless "where's my daddy" story arc they almost lost me as a viewer. I like Cheddwiggen though and of course a certain USMC Col. mmmmmm having a "Mac attack" right now <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle> hee hee

If you go to www.ez.org on that page is a sweet pic of PDE and it's on a damn LongEZ. Click the link and it's very interesting. Rutan is always doing something far out.

Yeah, I caught JAG the other night. Moi has no idea why I never saw a Mac type as a LTC while in the service.

Rutan's best creation I think is the Proteus ultra high altitude aircraft. what was the Rutan fighter jet thingie that he was developing, rotary cannon on one side, with the rudder fins on booms extending from the wings.
