First F-35 is a flattering angle, rare for that :) adore the T-38

Can you give any idea/description to what the F-35 sounds like taking off on full after burner? E.g higher pitch like an F-16 as opposed to deep and tearing like a Tornado? I suspect this is a whole new sound. Cheers in advance..

hi stroudy i would say it is not as high pitched as an F-16 and definitely louder than a tornado it is quite hard to describe the exact sound.hope this answers your question

Shaun,

A nice set, the two tone KC135 looks great. How much meaner does that F16D Vista look with the back spine fully filled in.
