[color=#000000]Those 14s look great, much better than the kinda drab 15s. Wonder why the AF doesn't do paint jobs as colorful as the Navy? I tend to like flamboyant.

The other problem with the Burners is that not only does the KC not have them, but the 15s would be burning through the gas faster than it could be passed to them from the KC.

And one might wonder why the CAGs from 2 different airwings would be escorting them.

Afterburners?

I have actually tried flying my F14 (seen below in my sig) around FL550.   At that altitude, AUTOPILOT ON, Auto-Speed hold 400 KIAS......... Afterburners were lit just to stay at 400 KIAS.   Depends on what flight level the KC was flying at that the birds would be 'burning.


but to be 'burning with Flaps down???? ummmm no.



Good shot overall.
