Title: F-14 Tomcat
Post by: Bobbyd15 on September 23, 2006, 08:54:18 PM

Omg i dont believe it the plane of choice for evry navy pilot and made famous by tom cruise in "maverick" has been decomissioned. The plane that protected us throught the hieght of the col war era and served in many of the bush's wars flew its last flight today.
This is a Salute to any pilot who handled my dream plane.

:huh
this is pretty old news
originally the tomcat would have been goe already however they flet it needed to stay a month or 2 longer.

sorry to see her go, its a shame really but, certain politicians didnt like the fact that it was being built partly in "their" states
