Wetdream, that would probably have been a Mk 1 Bucc.

On the F4 one of the instructors was telling about a Bucc v F4.

The Bucc was on the deck, usual max chat, but no match for the F4. With the F4 in his 6 the Bucc dropped a wing and the F4 immediately followed pulling hard.

Only problem, the Bucc hadn't turned.

I also controlled an F15C on to a Bucc flight. As soon as I gave the vector the jock came back with Judy and duly 'splashed' one Bucc. He then trashed around for a bit but it was obvious he had lost the bubble.

I offered more help to which he responded 'Bogey Dope'

" Three Bucc 6 o'clock 2 miles."
