Better than sex!
« Reply #15 on: March 18, 2004, 03:26:44 PM »
The Jolly Rogers you see is indeed a F-14. The pics were taken at the Museum of Flight in Seattle where I work. The Tomcat was actually flown in here from Fallon and donated to the museum and then we had the paint job put on. Both planes are now out front of the museum as you enter from the main drag. The museum now counts in its inventory the old Champlin collection out of Mesa, Arizona along with some other nice fighter planes. The grand opening is June 6, 2004, the 60th anniversary of D-day. Come by if you're in the area. It should be a great opening.
     Here's the  website for the Collings Foundation:

http://www.collingsfoundation.org/

     They travel extensively around the U.S. and if you go to the site you'll see their calendar. I believe a 45 min. ride in either plane is around $375 and it's deductable because the Collings Foundation is a non-profit organization. Take a ride, you'll never forget it.

     As for the sex part of this thread, you can get sex anytime, but you can't take a ride in a WWII bomber every day. The sex will cost you more in the end anyway and it's not tax deductable(unless a kid comes out of it, lol).

Is there any way I could get the address for the museum? We'll be traveling extensively, full time actually, starting this summer and Washington is on our list. We plan to hit as many aircraft museums as we can while doing this.

Either that or he has better taste in partners than do you. Did SOB give you a good time, or are you merely speculating?

Thanks for correcting me, It looked to me that they were the tail of an F/A18. Also, I thought I had read somewhere that VF-103 was switching over to Hornets.

I was just looking at the 2003 base guide and directory, It doesnt mention anything about any switching though.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
