Take your eye off it for a second and it's gone.

Beautiful plane (F15) and both were amazing r/c pilots who flew both of those things.

Cool vid, but why paint it in the uber ghey Thunderturd colors?

My GUESS, Bright colors, easier to see. I have never flown jets but have flown some fast prop planes. At those speeds it's nice to see em. Then again, maybe he just likes em.

nice video (minus the retarded music)

put a camera in the cockpit and build a controlstation and it would be even better.

Not to mention,I don't think the Thunderturds ever flew f-15's....It's currently F-16's

Too bad they didn't build tomcats instead of f-15s.

Then we could have listened to that friggin' "Danger Zone".

I was bored at work and went to the google video section.  Keyed in "F-16" and lots and lots of neat videos came up

I had a 1/32 scale model of the F15 that i never got around to builiding. I threw it away a couple of months ago along with the rest of my models. It was made by Revell and was in Thunderbird colors. Not that this is any proof at all tho.
