Wow! Read in the article that the USAF plans to keep using the F-16 to at least 2048...when the plane/design is over SEVENTY years old!

That’s amazing!

The C-130 Hercules first flew over 63 years ago. It is still currently in production. Who knows when production will finally end, but it's safe to say a lot of C-130s will still be flying on the 100th anniversary of the first flight.

I was on Cape Cod last weekend, and had a DC-3 fly over the house...:)

Even evolution won’t change perfection. Take the shark, for example.
