Everyone knows that if you put a big enough engine on ANYTHING, it will fly. Exhibit A: The F4 Phantom

I remember two assessments of the Phantom.

1. With enough thrust a brick will fly.
2. It has the glide rate of a man hole cover, on edge.

Yes.

The F4 has a glide ratio similar to that of a brick.
