IRL the sound is not noise anymore...it's a physical thing.
An F8 sitting on the catapult with the engine run all the way up is a force of nature...like lightning or an earthquake.

these things are SO LOUD in person, videos do not do them justice as to how realistic they actually sound.

@fourfortyroadrunner I was an AQ in VF-21 '80-83 (Phantoms, S and N PQS cert) and when we weren't on the Coral Sea we were in hangar 1, where a Crusader with a bailed out pilot crashed killing I think 8 10 years prior.
Miramar's boneyard had the blue angels skyhawk that hit the runway inverted practicing the high speed close pass in '78, what a mess it was.

Duck under the intake...Duck under the intake.
I spent 4 years working almost exclusively with A4s and F8s.
F8s are, by far, the most interesting aircraft I have ever had first hand experience with.
Your mini-me F8 is too cool for words.
OH..wear ear protection.
