Hmmm...

Reminds me of a story from Martin Caidin's book on
the P-38. The most maligned fighter plane during 
the second World War was probably the Brewster Buf-
falo. But when some were shipped to Finland, the Finns
raved over them. They were easy to maintain and ope-
rate in sub-zero temperatures out of primitive air-
strips, and would fly when nothing else would.
