KEEWL-
<<wonder how loud that was. I was at an air show once and 2 F-14s took off and went vertical. We were on the taxi way, about a 1/4 mile away from the runway. I couldn't even hear myself think.>>
Yeah but if that didnt excite you, make you feel proud and patriotic, you better check your pulse. 😀
Air shows are the best but were better when the Jets were allowed to break the sound barrier. Too many complaints about broken windows but imagine the fighter going by BEFORE you hear it.
