Pictures tell a story, this one the increasing credibility of these means of transporting people over reasonable distances in three dimensions. Featuring the revised layout of four power-units, I knew I was onto something when the guy running the studio ~ who rarely expresses an opinion ~ said that it looked more compact than anything else that had graced the floor.

Not given up on red, but used black for the same reason most Formula One racing-car teams have done the same this season: as the native material colour it saves the cost and weight of paint.
Plus it did Ford no harm at all for the first several years.
