    There is an easier way of making, say, a military aircraft almost invisible, one that has already being discussed by scientists. The plane is covered in pixcels and is fitted with video cameras looking in different directions.

    So the camera looking upwards would film the sky, which would be displayed as a basic TV image on the underside of the aircraft while a a downward looking camera would be wired to display the terrain on its upper surfaces. Neat and simple although the side view could be a problem!!!

    Grandpa, tell me about jumbo jets again.
