Almost all of us will get that movie whether we admit it or not. Mustangman65_79 too bad you're not flying in an old KC-135 with J57 engines and water injection. Used on takeoff only, the engines had water and extra fuel injected into them. When it kicked in it was like an explosion and black smoke poured out the exhaust all the way down the runway. I use to run engines in the air force as a jet engine mechanic and they were one of the most fun. I think the loudest jet was the F-105 when it kicked into afterburner with the J75 engine. They didn't call them thuds for nothing!
