Amazing how powerful those engines are! I can see why you like that bird so much. I can't imagine what its like to be sitting in the cockpit during that maneuver, especially the noise. Thanks for posting that!

Speaking of being in the seat, I got myself stuck in the right seat the other day during a MX BIT. I had it adjusted the way I like it but it wouldn't slide back so I had to crawl out over the center pedistal and throttle quadrant. The guys that had the seat next probably weren't too happy about that.

I'm surprised they don't put La-Z-Boy recliners in there....make those long trans-oceanic flights a little more comfortable! Guess it would make it hard to reach the rudder pedals with your feet up though
