I thought it was the sexiest plane there was.
True that;
F-14 Tomcat;
But...The A-10 Thunderbolt is still sexy. But has more stamina and muscle.
Great plane. I never worked on it, but I saw a lot of them, and I was in love with it. I thought it was the sexiest plane there was.
Funny, back in the Seventies, I never saw one in a fully loaded configuration with four Phoenix, two Sparrows, and two Sidewinders.
Boss...just a BOSS plane!
LOL, I very nearly did get cooked alive by one when I got caught behind a JBD when one went off in afterburner...:)
YIKES !!! Good thing that JBD was up !!!
They are Beautiful Aircraft.
I used to live under the Flight Path for F-4 Recon Training at Bergstrom AFB before they turned it into BIA. They went over the house every day.

That would be the B-1B.

I kinda know what you mean. WAR STORY WARNING! I worked instrumentation on F-4s and one of things we had to do was to test the probes that measure the EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature), which meant we had to climb way up inside the engine exhaust end of a (not running) engine. One day I was way up in there and I heard the power cart used to start the aircraft engine starting up... It didn't take me long to crawl out of there!
