The F-14 sure showed itself to be a very versatile aircraft, especially later on in life.

The one thing that always fascinated me with the Turkey was the full-on six AIM-54 Phoenix load-out. Remember reading through an ancient issue of "The 'Hook" about guys who had done a cat/trap with that payload. Must have been a chore.

(This has been another terrific thread.)


I'm becoming more tolerant of intolerant people.
