It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.

Have you seen the Tomcat-based "Fighter Fling" videos? They're up on Patrick's Aviation, but I think you have to pay for them now. Hilarious stuff indeed.

Making these videos seems to be ingrained in armed forces culture. :)

Something like it's elder brother-
Wing tips rounded, spinner's bigger.
Unbraced tailplane ends it's figure.
One-O-nine F is it's name-
F is for futile, not for fame."

Fighter Fling 2004 (the last one, dedicated to the end of the Tomcat) brings tears to my eyes and gives planegasms at the same time. I wanted to fly Tomcats through my whole childhood (yes, even before I'd ever heard of Top Gun. :p)

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
