Owned? No - sadly. Work let me use it occasionally

 

and there isn't a thrill ride like it anywhere on earth.

 

This is me down the valley in one...whilst the photographer is higher up on the side of the hill

Awwwww you should have said Maverick was flying inverted when he took the picture...

[Lady Elanore]

Which one was Maverick?

 

 

 

Checked it out, it was Tom Cruise. So was it Mother Goose who took the photo as Maverick was 'driving'?

 

 

Sorry a little OT

Looks like a Hawk. I have a feeling there are a group of 9 of them painted red that fly in formation. :think:

I don't want to put the dates on every car, but I have owned every car for at least 2 years, some overlapping with the others as I am not quite 'that' old. I also had some very interesting American cars when I sold em for a living, but I didn't actually own them, including a Pontiac Trans-Am and an F150 pickup

I wonder if Bossfox has ever sat down and made a list of how many cars he has owned (and currently own) through the years. I'm sure he could make a long thread about it.

Not round the Mach Loop at 50ft and 500mph they dont -

 

Search youtube "Mach Loop Hawk" for epic in cockpit videos - you'll get the visuals but you'll not be able to relate to the G-forces.  

 

Think the most violent roller coaster ride you've ever done.  Double those g-forces and make it last for an hour - that's what canyon flying a jet is like.   It's so   until   happens.

I wonder how long the list would be if he only listed unmodified cars

[Mr Grumpy]

I started to do a list of the cars that I have had, but ran out of ink, and then paper, and then ran out of steam..... somewhere near 200 since I started driving ( about 100 years ago...)
