You had to be deliriously fatalistic to go hooting and hollering around in those tin cans.

There is a reason the game is mostly played by 20-somethings.

You never forget the fun, as long as you were not on one of the many birds that went down too hard.

None of our current equipment will be “new.” As you know it was obsolete before being built.

At the time the JSF project was going on btwn Lockheed and Boeing I’d say what they were doing was new. But that was in the late 90s.
