One of the best things about the F3, at low level, was never having to look in the mirrors. Fox 1 in the face, good long check down threat, haul it round, wind it up to 750 kts and the rest (Leon has seen 870 kts; I've seen well over 800 kts) and you could chase down anything...
..and blow out windows. Oops. Teach 'em to live on the ground.
