Actually, the U2 is a spy plane first built by Lockheed, back in the '50, with later versions still flying for research as well.
I heard that it leaks a lot of oil while at "low" altitudes, till it gets to the altitude and temperature for which it was designed. Funny I remember that.
This is getting way OT, but yes it does. I used to do work at Edwards AFB and would occasionally see a U-2 land. Looked a lot like an clown with oversize shoes trying to do ballet. You could smell it all the way out on the runway. And yes, U2 the group was sort of named after the plane, along with other reasons. -- kai www.perfectreign.com linux - genuine windows replacement part
