HOw about an episode on the link trainer?

This is a great video and history. I was an enlisted air crewman and flew in three VAQ Squadron, VAQ130,132, 135 Det.2 station in NAS Alameda. I made 100 carrier landing in that aircraft. I have toured the museum twice. Thanks so much for sharing this, brings back great memories

Fred, another fantastic video. Please keep them coming! Ron W.

We also use them for supply during carrier qualifications for the vigilante.

I was a vigilante plane captain in RV ah3 naval Air station Key West Florida. We had two, ta 3B aircraft in my squadron for training on the ASB 12 radar system in the vigilante.

I'm just crazy about First Half 20th Century Aircraft; 1903-1953. Boy I'd love to be able to volunteer at an, Airplane Restoration Org. I really would, yet circumstance won't allow so have to be content with watching all the videos I can as they really make my day. Thank you.

yeah youre supposed to drip the absinthe over sugar into a glass so of course it tastes like floor cleaner...I imagine it still tasted like floor cleaner after the sugar though lol

5000 built ? heck they barely had 5000 pilots

One take videos are the best. Enjoyed the taste test.

Not keen on live videos

The F111 had an ejection capsule as well. 💙 💛

Btw the Caine mutiny was written by our very own, PS resident, Herman Wouk.

The aircraft was an A3D, and with no ejection seats, and the crew referred to the aircraft as "All Three Dead" a little gallows humor.

My late father was a Navy veteran (26 years) was stationed at NAS Willow Grove when I was born. Saw P2s there and at NAS Minneapolis and NAS Glenview, where my father retired in 1970. I didn’t see a P2 until going to an airshow at the Reading, PA airport. The Mid Atlantic Air Museum had 2 there. That was in 1985 or 86. Now they only have one. Don’t know what happened to the second one. Still a unique sound with the turbo compound radials.

Loved your show on the f-106 b. You said one thing that was incorrect. You stayed at that plane was always in California. I was the crew chief on that airplane in paine field Washington. It was in the 498 FIS.

Ty, very nice presentation.

Yes as noted was overweight and underpowered - XF-103 was cancelled after a GAO review of the program determined a likely top speed of only Mach 2.

It's good to see other countries aircraft.

I was in the 131st mi com 1971-72 phubi marble 10:06 mountin and danang

My Father was a Civilian Aeronautical Engineer and worked for the Air Force. Kelly AFB. Had a lot to do with the F-102 and F-106, and B-58. He made several trips to Convair, in Fort Worth.

❤😊 WOW !!!!!! 😊❤

My dad was 42rd flightline at laredo afb 1959-63 worked on that plane a hidden gem for its time rip pops 😊

Famous scene twd end of blue Max Peppard,s character disobeys Heidemann squad leader and they climb with ominous music,wow

Another great video, thanks. How about doing a series on gliders?

Nice job Greg explaining the parasol wing! 😅

A video. About the PBJ , or aerial bombs. Types

I just absolutely LOVE aircraft (BOTH Airplanes and Helicopters) with BIG, FAT, CURVY FUSELAGE Designs!! The Helicopter in THIS video (Sikorsky H-34 Choctaw) and Airplanes such as the F2A Brewster Buffalo, Grumman F4F Wildcat, the Grumman F6F Hellcat, the Vought-Chance F4U Corsair, all have a BIG, FAT FUSELAGE that I just ABSOLUTELY LOVE the ASTHETICS (PHYSICAL APPEARANCE of)!! I sometimes wonder if it's because I'm a MAN; probably because MOST men are PHYSICALLY attracted to women with BIG CURVES. I do not really know for sure, but something about these BIG, FAT, CURVY FUSELAGE aircraft (BOTH Airplanes and Helicopters) really GRAB my attention and "Turn Me On", so to speak. I DO NOT mean that necessarily in a "SEXUAL" context. Afterall, I am speaking about Airplanes, Heli-kee-pot-ers, and Automobiles, too [such as the 1930's Ford, Chevrolet, and Plymouth COUPES, as well as the 1950's FAT-FENDERED Ford and Chevrolet PICK-UP TRUCKS), as opposed to ACTUAL WOMEN!! However, these designs really do COMMAND my ATTENTION and APPRECIATION as FORMS of BEAUTIFUL ART!! I do NOT mean this in any kind of perverted way at ALL; that is really NOT HOW I mean this!!

Hi , I was a member from HMM- 163 from Sept. 67 to Sept 68 in Vietnam . We operated in the I Corps area and our base was 15 miles below the DMZ. We saw a LOT of action. We did troop insertions , extraction , Sea air rescues , as well as resupplies . We did Keasaun while it was under siege , the Rock pile and of course Happy ( helicopter) Valley . We had some great crews and pilots , even our CO flew and was a great guy to serve under Colonel., Louis Schwindt.we were the -Ridge Runners- our squadron received 2 Presidential unit citation by the time I left . Semper Fi . PS they fly the V- 22- Osprey now. We are Yankee Poppa my bird was YP- 5 .

I know all the planes but my eyes choose the p47 thunderbolt 😅

1960 Itazuke

1. Not sure, could be a TBD-1 Devastator 2. F-86 Sabre 3. P-51 Mustang 4. Not sure 5. Mcdonnel Douglas DC-3 6. Spitfire i think 7. P-47 8. Not really sure

Can confirm theyre all airplane shaped objects

Not my commercial plane dumbass thinking they’re all piston planes 💀

1: snj-4 2: f86 I think 3: p51 4: dc-3 5: c47 6: mk14 spitfire 7: p47D I think 8: t-34

Such a beautiful plane, and 880 hp in a biplane is also some power.

0:57 the captain David Wright, let's go Mets! Thanks Greg!

F104 Starfighter

B25 Mitchell, i got to see a rc version at an airshow

Powerful single engine corporate jet 🛩️

Its a Bristol Bulldog and its not a trainer it was the frontline fighter. It wasn't the aircrafts fault Bader lost his legs,it was because he was arrogant and ignored orders.

Dump the music and try to deliver a more animated, rehearsed, presentation. FFS, research how to pronounce things before recording. It's like you are making it up as you talk. Too much noise, nonsense, and not enough subject.

I really enjoy your program Ive been to PSAM many times. Its one of thecvest museums of its type I've ever been to. That includes the CAF museums here in California and Arizona. Thanks for the work you do and the preservation of aviation history.

Great videos of the Bulldog flying near end of this episode. It sure looks fun to fly. Thanks to all

5000 year old prunes…I fell off the couch.

I was in VP-17, 1965 - 1968 late. I went on three deployments to the Vietnam conflict, and was air crew for the last two deployments for myself. I was radio operator / avionics. Lots of stories and moments with blown engines, massive hydraulic failures, and a couple of enemy attacks. I enjoyed the radio stuff, as I do to this day. Additionally I saw some special and experimental P2's, the US Army had some at Cam Ranh Bay, USN had a few AP2E's at Cam Ranh Bay ( VAH-21 ), and VO-67 had some OP2E, special surveillance/sensor dropping planes. VO-67 had some bad times there.

I used to fuel some of Clays jets back in the 1980s when I was a fueler at FBO Oasis Petroleum a few buildings down from Lacy Aviation. When a 23 would take off, the entire airport would stop to watch. These monsters were loud, shrill screaming polluting missiles. Before the days of EPA, hush kits and noise regulations. They were outrageous little jets.

I wish they had a INCOM. T-65 X-WING

5:29 Yes the Battleship Arizona was Knocked-Out by an 800-Kg Bomb launched by a B5N1 "Kate" as they participated in the Attack on Pearl-Harbor as a High-Level-Bombers, while the B5N2 "Kate" being Faster were used to Destroy Ships with Torpedoes !

Worked KC-10 at McGuire AFB from 1995 to 1999! 860027. Jason May blows goats!
