Just as soon as I win the $421 million Mega Millions tonight, my bid’s going in.

Worked on Navy/Marine versions at MCAS Beaufort, SC. but B, C, and D models. Probably would put a later model J-79 in it since I’d have money to spare. The early ones were a little flakey.

I remember watching them shooting rockets at targets on the range on Camp Pendleton. They would come in low and sometimes high and dive down shooting the rockets off. We had to cease fire but it was worth it and it was the closest I ever was to an airstrike. I’m surprised it was allowed, being peace time and all.

Nevermind the later J-79, a P & W F-100 Will make it do things you never dreamed of. The Israeli’s did it, I wonder if their is film footage on YouTube when they showed it off back in the day.
