        • Oh my God those are awesome. You really get a feel for how gigantic the Valkyries were. Thank you for sharing those!

          • Those pictures are cool. One thing that I always notice in old pictures like that is how people are dressed. If they aren't in uniform, they're in a suit or slacks/sports jacket. It seems that nowadays jeans/t-shirt are the norm.

              • I never realized that they were that huge.

                While not as big as the Valkyrie, the Bone is a lot bigger than a lot of people realize...

                    No, dumb ass, that's Cpt. R. Astley. Get your shit together before you start disgracing an American hero!

                    • Actually, I think that is Cpt. Astley's wingman Maj. Bob "Honey" Badger.

                          Then who the fuck is it lieutenant Dan? Your pic isn't showing up. He just asked a question based off the prior post sayin U2.

                              Considering how big that aircraft is, the type of maneuvering it can pull off is incredible.

                                It's all in those swing wings. All of the best jets have them.
