The takeoff sequence rotates the afterburners and sends out 'flames' - partially broken

*update*

Recorded and loaded the soundfiles to my FTP space
The takeoff sequence (top left arrow button)

'Fire in the hole!' (top right arrow button)

The following are from the top to bottom of arrow 'spine'

'Wild Blue Yonder"

Generic 'Top Gun' music

'Commence Firing!'

'We need air support!'

So it is... I'd forgotten that the F-15 had twin tail fins...

Managed to fix the broken tailpipe mechanism to that both 'flames' extend and retract.

Curiously, during the takeoff sequence 'Foxtrot-19' is the plane cleared for departure even though the stickers label this as 'Fighter-7'...

Seems there was a pistol grip that let you set off a machine gun sound.
