The F-4 Phantom II: Proof you can make a brick fly, if only you give it enough thrust.

Oh, but what a brick. I got to be plane guard at one of these during an air show (I was in the CAP). I was the kind of plane geek that could rattle off random facts about the plane so they let me stand on front of it. A wonderful memory.

That’s great! I always thought it would have been great to to be in CAP, but I only became aware of it while in the USN.
