Who is saying the F104 are selling in large numbers ? Or FX-ones or I-17's or whatever the next scare is.

I think we have a touch of "grass is greener on other side of fence" here guys.

All classes from F16 to FX-one are dealing with the same situation. Catsailing is not as hot as it used to be 25 years ago.

None of the other classes is doing better then the F16's in absolute numbers and also not in world coverage. So why are we getting nervous all the time ? The other classes have got to crack some tough nuts before they can match the F16's over a broad front, currently they can't. That means that we have the advantage at this time and if we just play our cards well then we'll keep that advantage in the future.

We simply have to let go of any desires/expectations that quick growth is at all possible in todays markets.
