Above, a very bad ass piece of American Cold War hardware at Airventure: B-1B. Flew in today. Joined a B-52H and the worlds last 2 B-29s at the main square of the show. Well known Corvair builder Dan Glaze worked on the production line that built most of the B-1s , and is a wealth of information on their history.
Chevrolet has an add which pictures the back of a red 1963 Corvette split window coupe, with the phrase “they don’t write songs about Volvos.” If you want to spend your time in aviation with people of experience and quality, consider the caliber of people in the Corvair movement; because there probably isn’t anyone in the Rotax camp that actually worked on the B-1 production line
