I LOVE this model!

Part I - Location: CAF Zweibruken, W. Germany, Early 1980's

Performing the surface checks

Military power applied, brakes released

Wow, I bet that spotter's deaf now...

This shot shows just how unique this aircraft's design is

Part II - En route to East Bavaria for weapons testing/exercises; return trip to Zweibruken.

Turning towards the weapons test facility

I had to crop this one out, my commanding officers told me the tests are classified.

Approaching the runway...

Slowing to a stop after making a smooth touchdown - safe and sound, ready to fly another day.

Landing her is weird, and a bit hair-raising and overwhelming at first, but I can bring her down smoothly 99% of the time now. I spent a good 2 hours doing circuits, practicing my technique - after a while ILS landings are a cinch. Flying this beast really has improved my flying skill.
