Actually, folks, this is just another one of those net.myths...

I first saw this thing a number of years ago. Sure, it's funny, but just
like the good time virus, it ain't real. As was just pointed out, those
planes have different primary manufacturers (although dollars to donuts
they aren't totally the product of one company; US military procurement
almost always gives the losing bid companies chunks of the contract).

So please, when something like this, or good times, or the stolen kidney,
or the jet propelled car comes into your mailbox, have a giggle. But can
we try to stop spreading this net.myths?

I don't know how many times I've had to calm down people at the different
companies I've worked to assure them there is no good times virus...

This is a bit different: I don't think most people take this seriously,
it's just a joke. Just one of the funny email jokes that circulates...

... not that ShadowRN is the place for *any* of them...
