@goop352 Leaky, as in hydraulic fluid. Under every jet we had, sits a big pan filled with cat litter to soak up the multiple places it used to leak from. We still loved them. I've no doubt the C models leaked, too. I'm dying to see one fly again. Long live the pig, indeed!
Did he say the F-111 weighs 6 TONNES??? Multiply that figure by 7 or eight!

You guys are so lucky you still have them. I used to load bombs on them in the UK, and damn, I miss that leaky jet! Such a great aircraft.

General Dynamics F-111.
They were all built and production ended before GD was bought by Lockheed-Martin.
