Everytime a post is made about warning people about the race-oriented nature of the F16's I think of this video clip from top gear :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovH1KpCPcPo tune in at 1 min.

Jeremy Clarkson reads a health and safety sticker (oen of many) as found on the new Dodge Viper :


"The top support behind the seat is NOT a roll bar. This is an open vehicle; drive carefully.

... NO !"


F16's are highly power-up racing sailboats with very sharp steering. You WILL flip it one time or another. That should be apparent from just looking at the boats; no need for any stickers educating the dumb.

Our line of reasoning is different. We made the F16 easy to right so capizing it is not considered a problem anymore, just part of the fun.
