I didn't mean to. But the "Jet Plane Engineered" car was in the right hand lane at a stop light and we BOTH knew that lane ended in about 200 yards. He took off like a "Jet Airplane" & I got a terrible launch but still had plenty of room to make him fall back into formation. I hate dudes who use that lane to whip around traffic and sit there while people wait behind him to make the right turn into the mall.

So, could I say I won the dog fight.

(BTW if the jet plane references are not recognizable, I'm making fun of the SAAB TV commercials)

Mitsubishi also built fighter jets and bombers in WWII. So SAAB wasn't the only one.

 

as did BMW

 

as well as mercedes, some of the more notable being the messerschmidt BF 109 and Focker Wolf FW-190. Then there was the P51 Mustang and Supermarine Spitfire with the venerable Rolls Royce Merlin engine!
