Good old "Phantom" - some find her ugly, but I like that craft.

On the ILA 2005 in Berlin, the Sukhoi Flanker performed the "Cobra/Z Maneuver" and the Eurofighter pilot

let his craft fall uncontrolled from the sky, until he suddenly powered up the engines and rushed off -

all of which the Phantom could not do. But the two guys did what the old lady COULD do - they came

in flat, and then they zoomed up in a very steep angle on her two engine flames with afterburners on.

A roaring thunder - like a goodbye show of an old 50s design, that has served long and successfully.
