Robin, I think the 'requests to limit the number of threads' are really 'requests not to start a thread to make one post'. Additionally, in a thread titled 'lyr add', every single message will come up on a search, not just the one with the lyrics. And what gets added to the DT is songs that people want the words for, not ones we want them to want the words for. I have bunches of songs that aren't in the DT.

Anyway, on topic -
I was in the (US) Air Force and stationed at bases that had these suckers. We WROTE it as F-111 (sometimes drawing a little roof over the '111'...or maybe that was just me) but SAID it Eff-one-eleven. The ones with photo equipment were FB-111s. They were called a few other things as well, and I'm sure 'pig' was one of them. They had a problem with wind shear, and with the right conditions, they did not fly so much as they did plummet.

At one base, a couple of co-workers got pulled to go dig pieces of an airplane out of a hillside. Most of the crew had been recovered, but I do recall one of them said they'd found boots...with feet in them. The ejection mechanism didn't always eject the entire crewmember. Another time, another base, another ejection, and the guy hit the button a bit late and was forcefully shot out of the top of the aircraft...sideways, into a tree. The 'chute was in the medical refrigerator for a couple of weeks, until the investigators figured out what to do with it.
