I don't care much for heights now but when I learned to jump from choppers in the Marine Corps there was always that one  comedian that would say " Don't worry if you fall the ground will catch you." That is a nice looking engine.

Semper Fi brother! The best was at pilot school in Quantico. A sign that read..." You know your landing gear is up and locked when it takes full thrust to get to the hanger" LOL! Dan

I have thought about it and yes you could put two sparklers inside cut a hole in the exhaust stack and not only sparks flying everywhere but smoke. That would be as real as it could get. ;D But those are some real looking photos.

As an ex F16 crew chief this made me laugh out loud!

It's along the lines of how I could fix a silly write up with, "R2 Control Stick Actuator."
