I am 51 years old, and I remember when I was in my teens late 80s my stepdad took me to an air show. I remember two aircraft that I fell in love with. One was a A 10 and the other was a F4 E. Has been one of my favorites ever since.

@noiwonttellyoumyname.4385 5 ай бұрын

First airshow I ever went to was NAS Brunswick, last season that the Blues flew A-4's, and I had the same experience as you: the Blues and the Tomcat and the F-111 were cool and all, but the Warthog and the Phantoms did no-shit-for-real gun runs on the grass between the runways during the show, and I absolutely fell in love.

Exact same age as you. I’ll never forget that first Navy F-4 high speed pass at the Miramar NAS air show my first time going. Mid 80s. It was soooo loud lol.

@burnttoast111 5 ай бұрын

@@737Maxter Saw some F-4Gs taking off, along with F-104Gs, when I was 10. The F-4s were much more impressive to me. They were doing short field take-offs, holding the brakes and lighting the afterburners while on the ground. You could really see the nose getting pushed down. It's been one of my favorite planes ever since.

I’m 52 and got to visit the USS Coral Sea in the early ‘80s on family day. My cousin flew with the helo crews that were on standby during carrier ops. They still had Phantoms and I was smitten.

@JClark2600 5 ай бұрын

A 10 is a sexy bird but not really the best in ground support, but that's just my opinion. F4 was also sexy in that when you saw it at airshows it just looked fast. The airshow I went to back in the 80s they had it fly just feet off the ground just in front of the stands and I was really surprised at how loud the jet was. Very cool stuff.

My dad worked on the F-4E Phantom in the 1980's. I was born on George AFB which was the F-4E Wild Weasel Formal Training Unit. My earliest memories are of seeing them doing overhead breaks and seeing the long black smoke trail and how loud it was. Those core memories carried through with me my entire life. This aircraft is special, embrace this special time we live in. Thank you Heatblur.

@RogerSanGabriel 5 ай бұрын

I lived in Sunnymead now Moreno Valley and I use to see and hear those F4E's all the time. There was a wireless cable system in the late 1980's that allowed me to listen to the radio traffic. Dean Martins son use to fly F4's out of George unfortunately he crashed

@jinzai1962 5 ай бұрын

My oldest son was born at GAFB on 21 January 1984. The 20th was part of the 35th TFW...and trained German pilots on F-4Es, however the Wild Weasels were in the 37th TFW and flew F-4Gs. Small difference, but...F-4Es are quite different from Wild Weasels in terms of SAM suppression capabilities.

I have a long history with this plane. Grew up a few miles from George AFB. Several wild Weasel squadrons there. Used to go to their airshows. My civilian flight instructors were all moonlighting fighter pilots from George teaching at Apple Valley airport a few miles away during the 70s and 80s. The F4s flew an "oil burner route" low level tactical run right over our ranch shaking our house. I remember flying a C-150 in our practice areas and these guys would launch out of George. I could always spot the exhaust smoke 10 miles away. They would come at me in two flights and split. Ine going over and one going under me. I could actually look down and see their white helmets. I was about 17 or 18 at the time. Exciting! Later jn life, I owned several planes at AV airport and all my hanger neighbors were ex F4 drivers. Always loved hearing their stories. I've sat in a few and had F4 driver freinds who invited me to the offices club at George AFB too. All my fellow classmates in college aviation classes were F4 mechs and crew chiefs. So basically I was heavily influenced to love this plane right from the start. Yea..Ill be buying it.

@ga9633 5 ай бұрын

I worked on the F-4E/G Weapons Control Systems which included the radar, AIM-7 missile firing guidance system and AGM-65 missile firing. Did this for 11 years. F-4Es were never utilized in the Wild Weasel role but they did fire AGM-65s, so this is accurate. The 20th was a fighter squadron at George AFB that trained German Luftwaffe crews. The 20th had the newest F-4Es in the 35th TFW. Wild Weasel missions were conducted with the F-4G using the AGM-88 as a primary weapon and AGM-65 as a secondary weapon, with two AIM-7s in the aft stations. I never saw an F-4E or a G with an AGM-45 or AGM-78 loaded, whether operationally or as part of an airshow.
