    You'd have to decide whether you wanted afterburner or not, though...

      Does it even exist, or is this a fancy "gofundme?"

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        Good question. They didn't say they had a test model, did they?

            That sounds like a good price for an F16.

            But, if you actually fly it, it will get expensive, probably around $8K per hour.

            You could split that with the guy in the back seat.

            I watched 5 F22s fly over here at about 1,000 feet the other day, very impressive. Operating cost about $500 per minute.

              Remember, it's only 2/3's of a F-16. So maybe it's cheaper. And...It has a no afterburner option, which makes it not as fast, but cheaper, cheaper...
