In an idle moment, I was wondering how long it took to build something like a Typhoon or an F-35, from scratch ?
This was after watching a documentary on the Wellington at the weekend, which included the film of the 24hr build.
During WWII we were able to build aircraft fairly quickly to replace the large number of combat losses.
I imagine it would take considerably longer now ?
