I particularly enjoyed the part where they are testing the radar cross section of Have Blue, the initial design for the F-117. They had put it up on the test stand, but think the radar is malfunctioning, as they don&amp;#x27;t see any returns on the scope. Finally, they get a tiny return -- a bird had landed on the test object!</text><parent_chain><item><author>austinl</author><text>I&amp;#x27;d highly recommend the book &lt;i&gt;Skunk Works&lt;/i&gt; by Ben Rich.
