great job buy the pilots but what about the poor bastards that have to put that mangled shite back together?!! aluminum and runway = big holes!

dont know just when that video was done ... but considering that the f-111 has either already been phased out or is currently being phased out ... from what i remember hearing on the news last year ... that thing just became tons of scrap metal?

One word.....EJECT! Tom Cruze would have landed that bird upside-down

Wonder if it could haul one of these bombs?

By the way this fine lady can carry a MOAB in her roll.

F111 is no longer. We have the F18 super hornet. Would have preferred the F15e super eagle or the latest gen f16. But there a stop gap till we get the JSF. I suspect they'll end up staying though.
