A blog by a "sucker" and a "loser" who served her country in the Navy.
If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

Those wings look longer than the original.
Indeed they do. Those airplanes were optimized for high altitude as part of the RB-57 program.
Yep, doubled (roughly) the wing length from 64 feet to 122 feet. But they're still using the old T-33 motors... :-)
Old NFO, I think you mean TF-33 engines. T-33 engines were Allison J-33 engines and the RCAF T-33 used the Rolls Royce Nene-10.
