I agree that is a beautiful sight...

but, you haven’t seen anything...

if you have never seen an F-14 Tomcat go screaming by at full throttle!!

The real star of “Top Gun” was the Tomcat, not the other tom...

as a former squid, I have seen some wonderful things...

an F-14 in after-burner and a battleship firing the 16’s.

Both are something you actually feel in the gut.

I would like to see and experience an F-14 flyby at full throttle.
