Why the F-111B never made the cut. Having flown both F-111B and F-14, USAF test pilot George Marrett thinks it was a good idea to cancel the F-111B, and considers F-14s “the best all-around fighter I ever flew", also commenting of his test flying the F-111 in its early days as the worst aircraft he had ever flown.
