Bill/OregonWho loves a Galaxy?
Such a graceful ship!
Here's a really short takeoff:

Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright, that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong;

Todd WilliamsAs exciting as watching paint dry!
Sorry, as a former Hornet driver, just couldn't resist. As is seen in one of our member's tag line, Will Rodgers never met a fighter pilot! Most of us fighter types are proud of that comment!

Bill/OregonI'd give a kidney to do a simple up and back in a fighter. Might be hard to find a fighter jockey willing to take a civilian for a short ride without trying to make him barf, though. Wouldn't be a challenge with me, as I can get seasick standing on a dock. No fun at all.

I had one of those my last couple of years of college. It had been the personal car of a Ford salesman whose primary job was selling big trucks back when they had them. He liked hot cars so had his Galaxy XL ordered with a 390 Police interceptor engine. Dad and I found out about the engine version when we went to have spark plugs changed and a general tune-up. That baby would scream.
