Someone else design the military version of the Europa, please.  I'm still 
working on how to be able to retract the double bogey tandem landing gear the 
Europa 2000 requires using only a few hundred feet of bungie cord, a piano 
hinge, and a broom handle!

Perhaps that's why the MRCA (Tornado working title, aka Multi-Role Combat 
Aircraft) became known in the RAF as Mother Riley's Cardboard Aircraft (Or 
Must Refurbish Canberras Again) - they spent too long devising the broom 
and bungee stowage so they didn't get dumped along with the brake 'chute!
