Actually, it's in New Mexico. You know, the state that needs terraforming more than Mars does....

Saw one of these land with one wing once.

Not to nitpick or demean this pilot’s performance but the upside down aircraft shown at 52 seconds into the video is NOT an A4. Look at the egg-shaped air intake, looks more like a Sukhov or a Mig.

Comments, anyone?

There has never been a more beautiful or more effective milcraft ever.

Wrong.

F-100 Hun (ok, "Super Sabre")

That is unreal. Awesome pilot, awesome aircraft.

I have to admit I LOVED the F-14 and was quite saddened to see it retired.

Variable geometry: what’s not to love?

MD said that it wasn’t possible to fly an F15 with one wing missing.

I guess they had to change that to "not recommended." :)

[CTOCS]

Could be that, too...
