Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you very much, gentlemen, for being with us here today.
I just want to be clear on one point. Mr. Byrne went to some lengths to imply that the purchase was more or less done or inevitable, but that the planes are hypothetical. Can you confirm for us that the purchase of replacement aircraft for the CF-18s has not taken place, but that the F-35 is a real aircraft, which is flying? There are several dozen prototypes of it that are being successfully tested. Could you just confirm those facts?
