Default Speed and Angels

This is the story of 2 of the last group to qualify in the F-14 Tomcat. THIS is how documentaries should be done.

I started to watch it at work early in the morning, but I'll have to wait until I can watch the full movie at home. I'm not sure if it's the computer at work or what, but I had the volume turned all the way up and could barely hear it. I'd also like to view some of the other movies on that site. Thanks for posting the link, I'll be passing it on to friends.

Happy Holidays!

Had this bookmarked as I didn't have the time to watch it when the tread was started.

Have to say that it was one of the best documentaries I have ever seen! Thanks for posting it Doug.
