Is it okay if I go ahead and assume that the majority of technology provided to the institute is through outside influence? In the comics, their plane was made by Lockheed industries, particularly provided by a guy who was sympathetic to Prof.X's cause - and pocketbook. I can only imagine their tech comes from these sorts of investments, and is modified and dealt with by the Beast when he swings by. I think this would be a good reason Beast suggested Forge join the X-Men, so he didnt' have to show up as much to be the maintenance man.

Interestingly enough, Nightcrawler was the mechanic in the comics for the original Blackbird. How that works out, I'm not totally sure...

Sounds good to me, Forge.
And really, Nightcrawler? That's random.

Serious. Granted, that was on the old Blackbird before all the computer stuff kicked in.

Nightcrawler? I don't even know how they explained that in the comics? From circus freak to mechanic? Maybe he learned some from the bearded lady / mechanic that worked in the circus. Hmmm...
Cool, then we have our first X-maintenance-man!!!

I'm not evil!
Evil is merely a label attached to those with differing views from the norm.
Give me back my popcorn, Fuzzy Elf.
