• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

F-106 pilots

Anyone here ever fly the F-106? My tax guy flew one for some time and he said it was a real hot rod,I can tell he misses it.:USA-flag:
 
I never flew on them but worked on them. I was sitting on the concrete parking ramp one night underneath one trying figure out why the burner wouldn't light off. I did something (I can't remember what now) and the AB light off and it made so much noise that the concrete was vibrating and I vibrated across the cement about six feet on my a$$ like a coffee cup on a table. It was definitely a powerful and super fast plane.
