As a small child (as opposed to the big child my wiser friends consider
me to be now), I saw the Blues flying the F-11-F Tiger, and later
several times in the A-4 Skyhawk. I missed the F-4J period completely
.. . . but I am told that the show was awesome, especially from the
noise point of view. I did see the Birds in the F-4E's as a teen and
thought they were awesome.

Of all the possible choices, I think an F-8 Crusader team would be a
great mix of maneuverability and noise. I wonder how they would
compare to the current F/A-18's?

Blue skies to all . . .
