When I look at an F-16 at airshows I always take photo's and talk to the pilots because they will always tell you something new to learn about the F-16.  When I first regonised an F-16 I said WOW!  That plane look's awsome and if it looks right it must fly right.  This was not the case when the F-16 was first tested.  There was no fly by wire system then and the aircraft was very very difficult to fly.  There was one case which I have got a clip of (which I will eventually send to John) an F16 just doing a high speed taxi test and half way along the runway it wanted to take off without the pilot pulling back on the stick.  With great skill the pilot (appologies as I have forgotton his name) managed to pull the F-16 in the air luckly because the plane was swaying from side to side with the edge of the wing tip's scraping the runway.  The original design concept of the F-16 was to design the fighter to be unstable and with the introduction of a Fly-by-wire system this constantly keeps the aircraft stable as well as monitoring the pilot input all the time.  I wish I could fly a real one because it's the best.  I thing I hate is it's secrecy/confidential stuff surrounding this aircraft, it's really anoying because the aircraft is comming to the end of it's update program as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regards Rapier</description></item><item><title>Re:F16</title><link>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/177.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Apr 1999 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a23efcf1-9e75-4ff9-be18-cd9cb68b9485:177</guid><dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/177.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=19&amp;PostID=177</wfw:commentRss><description>*** Posted by Run *** &lt;br /&gt;That it's a 1 person jet&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More power, better avionics, stealthiness, vectorthrust, 12 Gs  ;-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[What you like most at F16?&lt;br /&gt;What you don't?&lt;br /&gt;In your opinion what improvements would you like for your F16?&lt;br /&gt;Tiger]</description></item><item><title>F16</title><link>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/171.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Apr 1999 07:44:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a23efcf1-9e75-4ff9-be18-cd9cb68b9485:171</guid><dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/thread/171.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.jets.dk/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=19&amp;PostID=171</wfw:commentRss><description>*** Posted by Julian  *** &lt;br /&gt;What you like most at F16?&lt;br /&gt;What you don't?&lt;br /&gt;In your opinion what improvements would you like for your F16?&lt;br /&gt;Tiger</description></item></channel></rss>
