While working away getting C4I as being one of the premier computer security intelligence and informtion sites on the Internet, Cyberspace is not the only space we want to control. Sure the gang over at Attrition have a lease with an option to buy with their F-117A http://www.attrition.org/attrition/staff/f117a.jpg And first across the finish line of the Chicago to Mackinac sailing race, Larry Ellison probably by now has his MiG-29.... I want a F-18!

Even better, when the paint was pealed back on the F-18, restorers discovered it was Blue Angel blue. The jets add to the inventory of 26 other military jets for Air Capitol Warbirds LLC of Wichita, Kansas, and Fulcrum Inc. of Ontario, Canada. But there's a lot of work to be done before either one flies. Because both planes were demilitarized by the federal government, the F-18 arrived without wings or instruments. But company officials said Tuesday that they have been able to locate all the parts needed for the restoration and expect to have the F-18 flying by the end of the year. The F-16, however, may take two years of work to restore. The jets will be fully functional, minus the weapons systems. A civilian has already put down a $100,000 deposit to hold the F-16, and a similar arrangement is available for the F-18. Company officials said insurance will, no doubt, be expensive.
