Is this a scam?

My spidey sense is tingling on this one…



My wife would kill me if I bought this…

Might be a scam, price seems a little low. Ask him if he's offering an extended warranty with that.

Totally legit. Lockheed hired the same consultants as HP. They hook you on the low price and bleed you dry with the consumables.

There’s an ad for a former Blue Angels F18 floating around too.

Totally legit. Ask the seller if flight instruction is included. 😂

There was a guy in OKC that owned a Mig. The Russians sold off a lot of "excess" hardware after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

There is really is a speed limit in the skies over the USA, until you get out over the oceans. The fuel cost and maintenance was just hugely expensive. He had it for a short time, and did a few supersonic runs out over the Gulf, and then put it on the market. He said owning a yacht was way cheaper.

Not a single word about armament. If I'm looking I'm wanting some consumables.

Ask how many miles to the gallon it does.

If he answers this it's a scam.
