Awesome at the air shows the short time they were used by the Angels. The SOUND was revelatory. You heard that coming and it was time to be three provinces away.

Only thing close to that has been near flyby plus acceleration out by Dyess in Abilene with B1’s (wow!). (See YouTube for supersonic).

That same era of the Phantom — the scandal about the FB-111 — well, there’s a junk man on IH30 NE of Dallas has one sitting out by the road. Can’t ever get over that sight. An Aardvark in the front yard.
