Pilot: "God dammit..."

Damn it! This is why we need to steal the Soviet Firefox system!

 
Well, I hope them boys on the carrier enjoy eternal river city.

I can’t figure out how to upload it here but there’s a video floating around of the mishap, apparently someone was on the fantail/engine test stand area filming flight ops and got it all the way to mishap.
