Happy birthday F-16, a truly great aircraft. I remember a conversation with a docent at the USAF Museum at Dayton OH who had been a test pilot and had flown the AFTI CCV F-16 and he loved it, having flown most other USAF jets before it. I asked him about the seating position, being low and stretched out rather like that of a racing car, with its side stick and he said it was something he said you got used to quite quickly, but the thing he marvelled at the most was the visibility from the cockpit. In the Viper it was like no fighter jet he had flown before.
