Nothing like rockets, though. They burn fuel at a rate of tons per second. Really.


Hard to see from the pics if the burners are selected. In the video (2nd) they clearly are not. When they go to burner, the "feathers" in the aft end spread open like your pupil does. BTW, the loudest of the all was Pug's jet, the Prowler. Mine just sounded like a vacuum cleaner frown


True Story: First time in the BOQ at North Island I wake up to someone vacuuming at 0530. Who the hell! Get up and realize the end of the runway was not that far and S-3's were launching.
