Speed is Life!

After 23 years of flying F-4s, F-117s, and A-10s, I still have a need for speed and I continue to live life in the fast lane. Few things can match going faster than the speed of sound, or shooting a thousand rounds of 30 MM.............but red lining my 06 convertible in 5th gear comes pretty close!

After lurking this web site for a period of time I can see it is a great source of information. Thanks for letting me drop in.
