Were they really attempting to "reverse-engineer" the Raider, or just see if they could get it to work again and what makes it work? my impression was the latter... Rocky8311 01:32, 4 November 2005 (EST)

How is that different than reverse engineering? --Peter Farago 01:35, 4 November 2005 (EST)

Wait, yeah, reverse-engineering is when you analyze something to build your own; just analyzing the Raider to learn how to fly it again isn't that --Ricimer 09:45, 4 November 2005 (EST)

No, it's when you take something apart to find out how it works, rather than building it from scratch. See Reverse engineering. --Peter Farago 10:48, 4 November 2005 (EST)
