Coolest Aircraft Thing You Have Ever Witnessed!!

This is an awesome thread, y'all!

Two of my coolest moments - when i was a little kid, we had a Christmas party at my dad's squadron at Bitburg AB, Germany, where my dad flew F-4's. They announced that one of the F-4s from the squadron went up to the North Pole to get Santa. Sure enough, here comes MY DAD taxiing up to the squadron in his F-4, both canopies open, with SANTA frickin' CLAUSE waving from the back seat! My dad was bigger than life to me then.

I also saw the very first Thunderbird demonstration that they did in the F-16. Nellis AFB, nineteen eighty something..... I'm dating myself.
