I also had a long phone conversation with an old squadron mate. He mentioned he used to FCF F111s - and had one out to 2.7 in a shallow dive from 50 grand. And I believe him - know him well. Don't bother telling me it's past the red line; that's just a mark on a gauge. I read a diary of a flight (Airpower ?) that said the F-111 had a timer that assisted with avoiding over-temperature on the canopy, did older aircraft like the F-106 have anything similar, or was it all seat-of-the-pants ? ----== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= 19 East/West-Coast Specialized Servers - Total Privacy via Encryption =---
