Your welcome. And don't worry about not being up on aircraft, I am far from an expert. I should be able to identify an F-16 since I have been around them for the past 14 years. What makes it easier is the single engine configuration. Now if you ask me to discern the different variations of the F-16, I will have to decline ;-)

They made, among other things, CF 104 Starfighters (aka Widowmakers, due to their penchant for stalling just prior to landing). I think they serviced Voodoos as well, because they flew over our house all the time as well. We knew every military jet going. I guess I haven't kept up with things over the past 35 years or so <g>. Funny, but you're responding to my post which hasn't even shown up on my computer yet. Hmmmm..... regards, frank Cesar Matamoros II wrote: > The jet fighter in question is an F-16.
