Now its your model of course, but if something goes wrong at 850-900 MPH 50-400 ft from the ground, you are probably talking to st. peter before you realized something went wrong. . the prop jobs that fly air races now don't have em, a lot of racing pilots don't even bother with parachutes. just sayin'
I'll keep that in mind! Ejection seats would be useless in this kind of race.
I'm thinking about actually getting rid of the RIO's equipment completely. My father suggested a flat deck like an F-15C.
The tailhook from an Eagle sounds pretty good to me. I think I'll go along with that.
If I was going to build a navalized Eagle, it would definitely have landing gear from an F/A-18. I don't like how close the rear landing gear are for a ship.... Shivers
