Gray day again with cooler temps. It looks like rain on and off--at the moment off. A perfect lazy day to read and stitch.
Speaking of reading, I just found this. The F-35 program has been plagued with problems from the first design. So the repair times are more than double estimates, parts are in short supply, and the repair facilities that were supposed to be up and running last year won't be ready until--2022. The statement that the military had been focused on "procurement" and spent "very, very little time on sustainment." The boys wanted their new toys--NOW--and would worry about how to keep them up later. Something has happened to our military's ability to plan and carry out programs efficiently and effectively. And it isn't good and doesn't bode well for the future. This is the military our leaders keep telling us is the best in the world?
