[QUOTE="Tailspin Turtle, post: 98768, member: 966"] In doing some follow-up research on this subject for my blog (http://thanlont.blogspot.com/2010/07/navy-research-aircraft-designations.html), I found the answer to the source of the number 39 in the L-39 designation. According to Birch Matthews, in his book Cobra!, it was Bell's design number for the project. I've revised my opening post accordingly. [/QUOTE]
