At contests among aerobatic airplanes with calibrated sighting devices, we judges constantly see verticals where pilots drag one wing or another. I do it too. But this guy! He’s got none of that and his pull is perfect. My question is, I wonder what his next move was?

Most likely kicking the nose over and a swoop

Oh yes. Season 5, episode 19. Wesley Crusher gets into trouble trying to pull off a banned maneuver that goes wrong and leaves him in hospital and one of his teammates dead.
They don’t make TV like that any more

I <3 the bone. Such a gorgeous aircraft. A hangar queen and a boondoggle, but man does it have lines and curves!
I think I had the below picture as a poster on my bedroom wall when I was a kid:
So pretty.
I miss the euro-one camouflage paint of very subdued greens and brown. Looked so good on almost every crate that wore it, wether a C-5 or an A-10.
Isn’t that sexy? Oh yes, yes it is!

Seconded. I was always disappointed there wasn’t a golden age sim title similar to DI’s Tornado or 360’s Megafortress based on the B-1. Honestly, Megafortress, with just some art tweaking could have made a heck of a B-1 simulator.
