I’ve only ever had that happen with F-14′s….

“But I still get a little tingly when I see a pic like that….”

jaymaster,

A little tingly is perfectly normal when looking at a picture of a fine aircraft like the F-105 “Thud”.

When you start to get an erection then it’s time to worry.

The paint jobs on the 105s are interesting. The bottom one looks like it is still in stateside SAC colors while the other 3 all have slightly different variations of the same scheme. I always thought they came up with a camo scheme for each aircraft type and then applied that same pattern to each aircraft.

Back during my long haired dope smoking hippy days, while I was dating a girl who believed in reincarnation, I was just about convinced I was reincarnated from a Thunderchief pilot who crashed and died in Vietnam.

I always had dreams that I was flying those things, even when I was a kid, and I would occasionally crash. I even tried to find out if any pilots were killed in action the day I was born.

Thankfully, that phase passed. It was probably all just something I remembered from seeing some video footage when I was a child. But I still get a little tingly when I see a pic like that….
