Imagine having been there when the last '77 bronco rolled of the line. Would it have been a special moment? What would've gone thru your mind?
Lockheed Martin in Fort Worth has been building them for 40 years. I just watched the last one take of on its final inspection flight before being delivered to the customer.
To me, it shows progress. But at the end of the deal, I look back and wonder if it really was progress. The bronco got bigger, and, as far as I'm concerned, less capable, and eventually went extinct (but it's coming back, huh?)
