據報導引述哈塔塔的話說，埃及計劃在二００六年完成研發ＩＤＦ戰機的工作，包括整架飛機，除引擎進口之外，完全由埃及人自製。

不過我還是很有信心的!!

All I'm saying is: it takes a lot of effort (including money sources) & determination (on top of very important outside assistance) to accomplish what the Republic of China achieved --in the form of our 130 some ChingKuo FCK-1 A/B versions IDF's. And definitely I'm in support of "energizing" our aerospace industry --and its product/services !

現在2002了,4年內要研發完成???

以此觀之，埃及的IDF原型機確實有在2006年出廠的可能。

Again, I hope that Taiwan, ROC. can really do whatever it can to ENHANCE its [in my opinion, fairly well established] aero(space) industry -- hopefully surpassing even the S.Korean efforts. The S.Koreans seem to be making strides & advances in both the WorldCup & they also have the ambition to achieve the
"Double 10" in aerospace -- i.e. to be among the world's 10 biggest aero company in the year 2010 (e.g. in 8 yrs time) !
The ROC ought to win back (stories told of former AIDC employees 'absorbed' by the Korean aero industry) such prized talents that it nutured. Hopefully the former AIDC staff can gain whatever Korean experience & bring them back to AIDC & the ROC !

波音767的研發計劃自1978年5月開始，約3年後的1981年8月4日首架原型機出廠。在這段期間，包含最初訂購的17家航空公司在內，機型確認訂單的有173架，意向訂單有138架。至1990年6月為止合計已有312架在飛行線上服務。首架原型機的首次試飛是在1981年9月30日，其後陸續有4架預產型機投入飛行測試，合計5架以取得美國聯邦航空署(Federal Aviation Administration, FAA)的型式認證。1982年9月30日聯邦航空署對767-200審核通過並發給「機型証明」後，各家航空公司採購的767-200才開始正式出廠交機。767自開始設計製造到通過飛行測試，確認達實用化程度為止，總共花費約四年半的時間。
