Go stand by an E-111. You don't want no fighter fanbois. You want a reliable and versatile ~~machine~~ partner who is non-violent, capable of accommodating the needs of two, and has full capsule ejection.

lolll & with that edit and the strikethrough it seems like you really had to go back in and correct “machine” lol

You may not form romantic bonds with aircraft, but I do. I'd fuck an airplane if given the chance.

Okay, but hear me out...

F86 Sabre.

Consolidated PBY Catalina.

Camillus AutoGyro.

I kinda like the Fairey Rotodyne as well, but she's a screamer and I don't want to get deafened.

What, even a Galaxy?

F-16s are the step sisters of the plane world though.

F-35 is triplets... But kinda the conjoined type.

F-16 would be a freak in the sheets.

Galaxy... I don't know if I could take something that big.
