Wow
One Sexy Beast DP; one of my favourite warplanes. The maritime version blew my mind: the crew flew in shirtsleeves, had a bunk w.c. and a kitchen in the back, and still this monster, loaded with ordanance.
Reminds me of an anecdote I heard a while back.
A P-3 was flying alongside two F-14s and the pilots was chatting back and forth. At some point the fighter jocks starts telling how much better their planes are, to which the P-3 pilot responds: "Oh yeah? Whatch this." The fighter pilots looks, but the P-3 just keeps plodding along. After a while one of the pilots asks: "What are we seeing?" to which the P-3 pilot responds: "Oh I just went out back, took a dump, got a cup of coffee and the navigator just brought me a sandwich"
