On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, F-4 Phantom, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

The April 1981 Iranian Mission to attack the Iraqi Air Bases (H-3) required the F-4 Phantoms to fly the entire 1800 mile mission below 300', this included 4 Air-to-Air Refuelings (at less than 300')! Pretty amazing, I just can't imagine an F-4 Strike Force all refueling below 300 feet!

My dad once had an engine 1 fire complete failure or engine 2 on approach with the RF-4C, he lost all hydraulic and movement of the aircraft pitch and roll while the aircraft was having a hard time stay up on air due to the engine failure and low speed, he landed that plane using manual trimming. They came very close to losing their lives and ditching the aircraft. However, my dad doesn't give up easily

There are thousands of pieces of the jet scattered all over the hillside if you can find the site. We found it in 2000 or so.

I grew up with F-4 C/D's and RF-4C's (1974 - 1981) my Dad was Avionic Maintanence with the 18th TFW at Kadena AFB Okinawa Japan. While we were there I fell in love with one specific F-4D. As a kid I got to play Fighter Pilot in the Front Seat and Wiso in the Back seat but what made me fall in love with this specific F-4D was the Six (6) Red Stars she had on her Port Intake. Tail Code ZZ AF 67 - 463 (44th FS). The Aircraft that Steve Richie got his 3rd, 4th and 5th Kills in and Chuck Debelvieue got his 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th KIlls in. While the Phantom and Habu will always be my favorite types of aircraft, 463 will forever be my Favorite Phantom

He always said the only aircraft he never got the chance to go up in was the F4. I would love to go up in something faster than the Cessna i went up in out in oregon at the Mcminnville airport thats across the road from the Evergreen Air Museum where the "Spruce Goose" is stored. Which is where i got a once in a lifetime special tour of the cockpit in which only presidents and astronauts was allowed to go. Quite the expirence!

In my very young days I lived in Greece opposite a major air base. They often held air defence drills circa early 1980s. I recall seeing dogfights between greek phantoms and mirage f-1s.
