If you thought the Tomcat ruled, watch this:

And people say I'm trolling.

Tomcat not bad, but where are the flaps, retractable gear, and swept wings?  (KIDDING)

Weak...I saw a video of a Japanese guy who built an F-14 that had swing wings, it was the size of the one in the video or bigger.  It took off, went straight up, and then crashed.

Got me on the gear, JB.  I thought maybe I should doublecheck that, but then I remembered how complicated the gear looked while taxiing and thought, Naw, that didn't retract.  

I know the flaps weren't out because it landed kinda hot but then still stopped pretty quickly.

Amazing model.  Hope it racks up a zillion sorties with zero prangs.
