Longestpants 1 Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) On Feb 16, I finally got my crap together and took a three-hour trip to the Air Zoo. Here are some of my favorite shots I thought I'd share. If the shots are crap, you can attribute it to either my unsteady grasp, or my hardware, a 2 mpx camera phone. You also have the dubious merit of a caption on every picture. First, here's the F-14A Tomcat of VF-84 "Jolly Rogers", serial No. 160395 (to the best of my knowledge, the picture I took of the serial is all fuzzy): The immortal P-40: The best fighter ever built, the SPAD XIII: The Wright Flyer: This one's for you, Major Lee: F/A-18 Hornet: During the month of February, one can sit in the pit of a designated plane. Here's me in the F-14; it was hands down the best 90 seconds of my life: If you wish, you can view the whole album HERE.

Rambler 1-1 9 Posted February 23, 2008 just don't pull that black and yellow striped one. I'd give ANYTHING to see an F-14, let alone sit in one. Nice P-40, too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
