I'm too young to have hipertension :wink:

you never know mate, i know people who caught it in their teens :|

You're right we need to calm down all, but I'm against policy changes in this aspect.

Fair enough, you're perfectly entitled to your opinion on the matter.

After all my intention was to invite debate on this subject, and what kind of debate would that be if there are no opposing views?

P.S. Have you seen my response about the LAgg-3RD? Hope to clarify it for you. Sure is a ugly plane

Yeah, that much i heard about it, that there was a consideration to mate a pre-existing airframe with a captured German jet engine. This is where eventually Yak-15 comes from.

But was there an actual Lavochkin attempt to mate a LaGG-3 airframe with a jet? And why a LaGG-3, why not some of its more modern derivatives - La-5 or La-7?

Was that initial idea ever considered any further than "it would be cool to stick a jet onto an existing airframe, but unfortunately we don't think it would work"?
