I read somewhere a rather amusing story involving a USAF B-52 and an F-16.
The two aircraft were on a routine training mission, the pilot of the F-16 was a young arrogant SoB and started showing off to the B-52 crew by barrel rolling around the B-52. The F-16 pilot then challenged the B-52 pilot by saying anything you can do, I can do better. You’re on replied the B-52 pilot, and the F-16 driver watched as the B-52 proceeded to fly straight and level. Curious, the F-16 pilot asked what the B-52 pilot did that was so impressive. The BUFF pilot replied I just shut down 2 engines kid, to which the F-16 pilot had no reply!!
Anyone out there got any stories like this???
