F-18C Hornet Cockpit Formation 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper
This shot doesn't need a lot of comment. I like cockpit shots and this one puts you directly into action. Imagine yourself flying in a F-18 with your wingman on your left side just above the clouds. Free like a bird!
It reminds me of a quote I found in a book.
"Suddenly the Mach needle...went up to .995 Mach - then tipped right off the scale... We were flying supersonic. And it was smooth as a baby's bottom."
General Charles "Chuck" Yeager, on his first supersonic flight in the Bell X-1.
I will post some quotes from famous aviation pioneers this week...Hope you like it!
