In the Hot Seat


Here's another photo from my day at the Richmond airshow. The RAAF guy let me climb all over his F-111. The most interesting seat for a bear is right at the tail on this nozzle between the engine tailpipes. I wouldn't like to sit here when the aircraft is flying though. It is the fuel dump valve and during the flying display it is where the flame for the "dump and burn" comes from.
