• 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.

  • Server side Maintenance is done. We still have an update to the forum software to run but that one will have to wait for a better time.

Neil's Nostalgia

Third jet in this row, BuNo 144608, was the "Project Bullet" F8U-1P Crusader in which John Glenn broke the trans-continental speed record in 1957. Sadly this bird did not end up in a museum, it was recalled to the fleet and lost in a ramp strike aboard USS Oriskany in 1972.
