Default General Dynamics 600 - 09-13-2010 , 03:55 PM






Last Saturday, 11SEP, at Ohio Linux Fest 2010, I talked to a BSD guy
who says he has a General Dynamics 600 and that it is the first
machine that Pick was ported to.

What do the people on this list know about that?

By the way I worked on the Microdata 800, back in the day. Not dating
myself or nothing....

All I can find out about a GD600 is:
Unique among airliners is the General Dynamics 600. It alone is a
conversion of a piston airliner to propjet power.

Looks like an aeroplane (sic) to me! Would be very interesting to see
Pick ported to that! Passengers get hashed as they pass through the
door and are assigned seats in groups (wait, sounds like Southwest).
Worst part is the prop-thrashing...
