Happy "F136 Day"

I'm calling today "F136 Day" because ... well, for me, it is.

I'm on my way to Cincinnati for a meeting this afternoon with the General Electric/Rolls-Royce program manager for the perpetually-imperilled alternate engine for the Lockheed Martin F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF).

I've got to run to catch my bus, but I'll let you know how it turns out.

In the meantime, enjoy some background reading material on the engine here, and feel free to share your thoughts on whether you think the JSF program really needs two engines.
