When do you guys think it will be?
Will we have the c202, Spit Vb, and La7? Will the billing start then? Will McCain beat Bush in South Carolina?
*whoops!* wrong thread! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Don't have me books here at work, but correct me if I'm wrong, LA-5 was a better performing A/C than LA-7?
Or maybe I'm thinking backwards like the Yak series (Yak1 was much better than Yak9)...

La7 was a refined version of the La5, and was a better a/c overall.
