F16's looks cool inside the sight of a mistral launcher.

Would It have hit? yup.

Would I be sitting here today typing? No

So maybe I should have (for your sakes)

Least you get something special that fly near you.

Get nothing special up in CT. Will see pairs of a10s flying around about every week.

Pretty rare but see some planes from Massachusetts. Anything that comes from Massachusetts see in flights of 4. Seen flights of f15s and f16s. Not great thing to remember but saw lots of f15s and f16s pass overhead on 9/11 headed to New York.

There was a odd time when walking in the neighborhood. Saw a single f18 fly overhead. Was probably about 1000 feet up. Going very fast but not fast enough to break the sound barrier. Looked up and saw and when looked back it was gone. It was overhead for maybe 1-2 seconds at the most. Not sure why but was heading east.

Ah Hoarach, F16s are nothing special when you live 15 minutes from an AFB. A10 is something neat for me to see flying around. Noise ordnances mean nothing for the military guys, be it an F16, C-130 or C-5. They all make a good rumble compared to the 747 and such that fly over as well.

I live along the aproach path for 1 of the runways at lovefield so when I see Air Force One land at love you can always see about 6 fighters doing patrols over the area

I've never seen that big ugly bird land but i have seen it on the Tarmac and it IS a big ugly bird. They need to paint it something more inconspicuous, like clear.

RAIDER14 · « **Reply #10 on:** March 18, 2006, 03:52:37 PM »

so a big white 747 or a all black 747 is less of a attention getter?

Yep saw 'em today as they were doing some touch-n-go's at Wright-Patt.

I told you Raider, clear. Clear, clear, clear, clear, clear. If you can't see if you can't shoot at it. Just drape something over it while it's on the tarmac so they know where it is. I'd say an old United paint scheme would look nice on it though.
