Assignment Intercept (January 1976 in US and 1978 in UK) by Marilyn Granbeck

Foolproof American missiles are going off course and accidentally hitting Russian ships. Russian rockets were hitting American targets. Somewhere in the deep Yucatan jungle in a forgotten Mayan temple,, a Red Chinese scientist was using a lethal device for sidetracking missiles.

What is this?!

What's better, an H81-A3 or a P040E?

Mike, it seems about a wash to me. H81-A3 has slightly better range, but no drop tanks, higher ceiling and climb rate and better maneuverability. P-40E has slightly faster speed, shorter range, but can use drop tanks to surpass the H81, slightly better gun value, but less maneuverability, climb, and ceiling. P40E has a lower service rating of 2, compared to 3 for H81's. If you're not playing with the "Strato-sweep exploit", the P40E is probably a little better overall.

BTW, tracker has a fantastic screen where you can compare different aircraft side by side. [;)]

Shut up capitalist dog.

[:D][:D][:D]

I'm curious, Yuri, and will try to ask this discreetly as this is an open forum. Having had a good deal of interaction in my consulting years with Hasidim, many of Russian origin, I found them a fascinating people. They did not seem to have your affinity for things Russian however. Never heard it used. Which was fortunate as I have zero Russian...Yiddish was easier since it had many German words which I could get, along with the Hebrew and colloquialisms which I could not.

PM me if you prefer. Or not. Just a curious Celt here with a love of languages. [;)]

Hmm.....not sure how to answer that. Well, most of my contemporaries, the ones that left around the time we did, dont speak Russian, or do so rather poorly. My parents, however, were very insistent that I must not forget Russian. That, coupled with my love for history, gave me the impetus to keep reading and speaking it.

That's interesting Yuri. My ancestry is Italian. All of my grandparents got off the boat around WWI. I grew up with my grandfather (a WWI Italian Army vet) in the house. His philosophy was that we were in America, we speak English. He never let me learn Italian. Now I did learn the culture and follow a lot of it to this day. It's interesting how people are in the same circumstances but arrive at different conclusions.

Good morning, Space Chicken leader. [:)]

The turn development did not go as well as hoped last night. Prospects for today are much better. [8D]

Thanks Mike. When I upgraded Tracker, it stopped working and I haven't had the time to fix it. I know that screen. Used it plenty of times.

The List (March 1976 in US and 1978 in UK) By James Fritzhand

Flying to Hong Kong to purchase a microfilmed list of US intelligence agents more important than 20 nuclear secrets/ Nick Carter found the seller dead and the film gone, and an international squad of killers after him. A lead will take him from a museum in Hong Kong to an abandoned temple in Burma. His only lead was Tou Wan. But there was one problem, she had been dead for thousands of years. [X(]
