That old Navy plane too old for you?

How bout an FJ2 Fury?



Didn't know the navy had a Sabre variant.

My grandparents lived in the shadow of Patuxent Naval Air Test Station, where lots of this was filmed. Their house was 200 yards from a Theodolite Station at Point No Point.

  1. It's not a biplane, so it can't even be in the running (yet)!

  2. ISTR seeing the prototype for the Fury at Pima Air Museum outside of Tucson. Outside display. Neat place. Lots of goodies. Fair number of various prototypes, both big iron and small.

I reserve the right to delete patently offensive comments. Or, really, any comment I feel like. Or I might leave a really juicy comment up for private ridicule. Also spammers.

You can always offend hippies in the comment section. Chances are, those will be held up as a proper example...
