My entry for the Build Me A Plane challenge

Wikipedia:

The English Electric Lightning is a British fighter aircraft that served as an interceptor during the 1960s, the 1970s and into the late 1980s. It was capable of a top speed of above Mach 2. The Lightning was designed, developed, and manufactured by English Electric. After EE merged with other aircraft manufacturers to form British Aircraft Corporation it was marketed as the BAC Lightning. It was operated by the Royal Air Force (RAF), the Kuwait Air Force (KAF), and the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF).

    @GuardianAerospace Dude, "BAC Electric" is incorrect. English Electric was the manufacturer and then was incorporated in to BAC. So it would just be BAC Lightning.

    @Mousewithamachinegun123 thanks for agreeing with me! My literature teacher has no value for us. She assigned at least 30 assignments in less than 2 weeks

    Actually, this is a very cool plane, even with the limited parts.

    Edit: Hey, nice biography! I agree with that wholeheartedly! I am homeschooled, and so I do get to avoid some of that, but it is definitely true.
