When we see the cheerleaders on the court doing their routines, we see the 'finished' product of hours/days/years of practice. Heaven forbid if reporters were to reveal the tumbles and failed attempts the cheerleaders endure during their practices. I'll play devils advocate here, helmet law?

In a F-14 it’s like sitting in a Cadillac. It’s solid. You don’t realize you’re going that fast. |

| I have been obsessed with it since I was a kid! Not from Top Gun either funny to say, the movie Final Countdown from the Jolly Rogers got me hooked. I loved the later F14D as well with the upgraded engines. My friend in the Navy worked on these Jets. This is one of the best ever, retired too soon. I miss it dearly, will never see it fly again.
