A little bit more difficult, may be, but with knowledgeable guys like you i doubt. ![[Linked Image]](http://i575.photobucket.com/albums/ss198/Hunter4570/002.jpg) Only thing I could find on it. Leduc 0.10 ramjet atop a Sud-Est Se.161 Languedoc. Google is amazing.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Thanks, with only about twenty hours of joy riding in type, at least I can claim setting my hair on fire  That's a 20 hours I daresay most of us 24hr guys would KILL to get, Jorge!!

Got a ride in a Phantom one time, first question out of the pilots mouth before climbing in was "What did you have for breakfast Sgt?" I answered "Nothing Sir." He said "Good, we are low on barf bags!" From the PI to RSVN and he had to shake it out due to the engine changes it had gotten, DAMN good thing I always LOVED roller coasters as a kid! Frigging zoomies were NUTS!

Hey, back in the day we loved the ones with Navy & Marine markings, they would get right down in the mud, blood & beer for our ground pounders.

Agree 100% Terry, they certainly laid the smack down when it was needed. Saved thousands of lives no doubt.

Hey what about the ones with the ghost for nose art? They done real good too Woody, but there is nothing like the smell of napalm in the morning, or any other time Charlie was around!

Frigging zoomies were NUTS! Nice, Terry! When I was a little squirt(around 1973?) we used to watch the Idaho National Guard RF-4s buzz around the Boise area-they had the Vietnam era camo still, you know, grey underbelly with brown and olive paint on top-the crackle/roar of those J-79s? was awesome.

Wish I could have ridden in a Phantom. Cool jets! Here's a bit of a challenging one (as far as regular mass produced fighters goes). I was just at this museum last week: ![[Linked Image]](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-pY9mqhufPKs/TymrcOHO4vI/AAAAAAAAAVQ/8rWBp_gxmyA/s512/Jap_Fighter.jpg)

It's not a Zero. I thought it was too when I looked at it. A very close cousin though.
