The title of the Big-Boys.com piece is "I Gotta Get Me One of These!" If you're into airplanes at all, one look at the video for this 6' long jet-powered F-14 Tomcat in full test-flight mode will have you uttering similar sentiments.

I watched a TV show of an rc airplane meet a few months ago where the overall best was a homebuilt F-100. They also had an F-16. Apparently these scale jets
are pretty common these days.

yea, I used to belong to a club. those helicopters can do some AMAZING stuff that i thought a helicopter couldn't do... I watched them hover upside down, then go vertical with it, do rolls, loops... all that. I wouldn't have the patience to fly a helo though.. the first year or so all they do is hover in one spot like 4' the ground TOTALLY BORING!

Pretty cool. I wish someone had been there to run the camera so we could see closeups of the damage. Why type of "gun" is that? It looks like the one used in the Terminator movies.

Aw, geez, what a disappointment. I thought this thread was gonna be about F14 tractors, built by International Harvester in 1938 and 1939. Them F14 planes are as common as dirt compared to an F14 tractor.
