And oh... those marvellous F100 Super Sabres...

Have fun!
That was so cool to watch again. Hadn't seen that in years. Thanks Douglas Jr for sharing that. I liked the Sabres, but especially liked the sleek F105 Starfighters. That was a WW1 Nieuport 28 he was flying. I read an article once about how someone had shortened the wings and added a more powerful (radial? as opposed to original rotary?) engine to some of them back in the 1930's for a movie. I used to know it, but can't remember the man's name who did the modifications. Anyway, I recognize that Nieuport 28 was one of those that had the shortened wings and different engine modification done to it.
