I was with VA-176 and VA -85 from 1983 to 1987. Made cruses on the USS Independence, Saratoga and Forestall. I have so many memories of watching the F-14โs scream off of the deck. Truly an incredible aircraft, Love that plane.

Love that bird. 40 years after my service aboard Enterprise, there was a local air show that featured one. I got within 30 feet of it sitting on the line and I could smell the JP. I've never known of any machine to take the punishment of a carrier bird, a tribute to Naval maintenance.
-
The sexiest and best airplane ever.

Now Thatโs how you spend our Taxes ๐

As a kid I was impressed by the first illustrations of the Tomcat prototypes I read about in Reader's Digest. As an almost retired pensioner, I'm still more impressed by the Tomcat than by any other fighter jet that came after it. No matter how superior the newer models are in performance, radar technology or weaponry. Hats off to Grumman!
-
Under appreciated magnificence. It should still be flying CAP today.
-
best jet of all time. My favourite for sure
-
I laughed when Rooster got into the back seat of an F14 and exclaimed โThis is so old!โ
-
Bast video Iโve seen in a long while and an amazing tune for it.
-
That was a GREAT video! Loved working on the F-14A at the NADEP Norfolk flight line hanger, LP-167!
-
The best F-14 video i have ever watched
-
I loved the f--14 tomcat when I was on the uss independence, 73-75 cruises ,would still be flying that jet today updated, but because of cost and maintenance, they had to retire it.I think head to head,even today it's better than the FA-18 today
-
Yep, I just felt the blood rush from my head to my other head lol, nicely done, with objectively and subjectively the best jet the Navy fielded.

The F-14A was initially equipped with two Pratt & Whitney TF30-P-412A (or JTF10A) augmented turbofan engines, each rated at 20,900 lb (93 kN) of static uninstalled thrust, which enabled the aircraft to attain a maximum speed of Mach 2.34.

Came for the skull and bones. Ex Jolly Roger here. 1983-85 Any others out there? or Black Aces?
-
Nice work. Loved the Tomcat when I was on the Nimitz.
-
Nice stuff, man. Thanks for the effort.
-
By far the best aircraft of all time. It can still hold its own against any modern fighter.
-
flew them for over 12 years, baddest bird ever.

I miss this bird so much...
