Pete,

Amazing pictures...I felt like I was there

Good American engineering!

The General Electric J79 is an axial-flow turbojet engine, that had something like 17,800+ pounds of thrust. Put 2 of those into a F4 and at full after burner, you get mach 2.2+, in an aircraft that proved, even a brick will fly, if given enough power.

Thanks for sharing the pictures Pete!

i like them all, but when it comes to sheer awesome power. The F-4 aka flying brick does it, from its cool looks, to the sound of the J-79's roaring by. it is a plane that photographs very well. I have a few more to post as well.

For a A/C that old...its capabilities and design was well ahead of its time...it was and is a bad ass machine...

Thanks again for the pics...
