It would be interesting to figure out what their time would have been minus the detour. Maybe the French wouldn't have beat them.



Yes hobie1616, why don't you invest some time yourself and google the time difference ?

Alas, I am but a poor program manager whose mathematical skills pale in comparison to great engineers such as you.
