Of the a/c I flew the F-14 was by far the most complex as far as systems go. It was hard making it look nice coming aboard the boat because all the control surfaces were moving at the same time. That’s why you’ll sometimes hear it called “the Turkey”.
I've never seen that, doubt I ever will. However, I've seen enough wild turkeys on the wing that I literally LOL'd when I got to where you wrote "The Turkey".
Rocky, thanks for your explanation on the F104. I've never "flown" any airplane. Dad's friend had a 172 that I "steered" for about 10Min one time on a pleasure cruise over the hinterlands. But, I could "feel" the "OH NO" in your description.
