Dang!


In the US, GE has a commercial on TV with pseudo-old film footage
showing the Wright brothers Flyer taking off at Kitty Hawk with an
extremely large, GE jet engine bolted to its top wing.


Looks like a thrilling ride!


The "Starfighters" F-104 demo team based out of my hometown
(Clearwater, FL) and the jet-powered Waco bipe in the link above
that Keith posted are my two fave airplanes at Sun 'n Fun. Another
very cool photo is the *turboprop* ULTRALIGHT shown in the link
below:

Scroll down to the bottom to view the pic. Very cool!
