About the book: 2005 / President of the advanced projects department ("Skunk Works") of Lockheed Ben Rich personally took video recordings to Kelly Johnson's hospital from which the founder " Skunk Works could see one of the most unusual aircraft of the 20th century take shape. Johnson never trusted electronics, saying he would rather believe in a "hydraulic radio." The videos Rich showed greatly surprised Johnson. Johnson was even more surprised when he learned that the plane was not only equipped with a fly-by-wire control system, but was also designed using a computer program. Johnson has always been a fan of European design: drawing board, Whatman paper and drawing board. A veteran of the Lockheed company asked listlessly: “I hope you won’t build this disgrace on my Skunkworks.”»?»
