I've been at an Auto-X at Lockheed when an F16 did a full throttle takeoff @ Moffett... stopped the whole event. The Vette on course stopped dead in it's tracks; the drive thought he'd popped the engine the sound was so loud.

Gawd, the more posts I read from you, the cooler I think you are.
And I'm a fan of the F100 Super Sabre as well.

Nice, a Phantom Pherret!
I always found the F15 ACTIVE and F15 IFCS variants to be fascinating as well.

P.S. Before anyone bags on the F4, please keep in mind that I'm a Phantom Phanatic. Long live the Spook!

THANK YOU.

The F4 is the first plane I ever fell in love with. I loved it so much I bought a model kit and spent a whole summer building it. That was the first time I remember being patient with ANYTHING. I did every book report/art project I could on the F4 for the whole year after that.
