Thacker) Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories Lines: 14 Approved: military@att.att.com From: Mary Shafer I'm not trying to stop the discussion about Spitfire marks and the Battle of Britian, but I have to point out that "Piece of Cake" is written about a Hurricane squadron. However, it was switched to Spits for the television version because there weren't enough flying Hurricanes available. -- Mary Shafer shafer@skipper.dfrf.nasa.gov ames!skipper.dfrf.nasa.gov!shafer NASA Ames Dryden Flight Research Facility, Edwards, CA Of course I don't speak for NASA "A MiG at your six is better than no MiG at all"--Unknown US fighter pilot
