I've felt for a long time that for most, the F16 is a better platform than the F18, that the 16 will render the 18 obsolete, just as it did at Hobie.
You have got to be kidding me!!!
If that is truly the attitude within the class then you are a lost cause.
When F16 yearly production amounts to 10% of the yearly production of F18 I will be amazed. Until then it will remain a figment of your very lurid imagination..
