As impressive as the St. Barts is, I can't help but wonder if a helicopter might be more economical/safer for the route

If I had to pick one Cold War interceptor with pure "heavy metal" aesthetics, I'd pick the Su-15 "Flagon." Just look at it: twin massive engines, a bulging cockpit, a bulbous nose, and a grim reputation for killing Boeings. Pure rock and roll🤘
