Phantastc plane✈️👍

The height to become an astronaut is 100 kilometers, not 100,000 feet. 100 kilometers is over 300,000 feet.

The Corsair was not the F-8, it was the F-4U.

I'm a general aviation pilot and from my perspective this is a fantastic flying aircraft and that's all that it is. It didn't do any of the jobs that it was supposed to do even well. It just did them kind of good. So, the effectiveness of the plane is zero. Would love to fly one and I'm sure it's one of the greater flying airplanes ever made but it just didn't get the job done. end of story. Only one of its jobs which was to be an air superiority fighter was largely exaggerated by the United States government. A country which I'm a citizen of. The real kill ratio at very very best was 2:1. My dad was an Air Force mechanic in the Vietnam War and explain to me how all the statistics given to us here in the United States are an absolute lie. This was probably the greatest plane ever built that couldn't really do anything

how can I get a copy?

Love the Phantom and how it sounds. One hell of a beefy plane.

Seymour Johnson, Clark AFB- I was there when F-4 were active and transition to F-15E’s or in clark we gave away most to other nations

2:09 sudden death

I Sewed Together The Pilots "Strape On" Harness For This Aircraft Omong Others... I Packed The Pilots & Co-Pilots Parachutes, Signed My Name,Rank,Date & Full Serial # To This Little Book ! And, Also Passed Two (2) Poligraph Examinations Every Year... In That MOS... Cordially: Randy N. Jolly And Also Drove Fort Bragg Brass With A Loaded 45 Cal. As A Side Job !!!

Anyone know if this can still be downloaded for windows? thx

Documentary was awesome, but also, thanks for keeping the commercials in! I didn't appreciate them back then, but they're just so much better than the ones being made today. Brought me right back to my childhood!

5:03 That's the F4u Corsair, not F8. F8 was designated to the Chance-Vought Crusader.

LBJ ( look it up ) was responsible for many deaths in Vietnam. A real piece of shit. Vietnam Veteran 1964-1968. Just got to love the F-4

I need to know the Name of that opening Guitar Song while the Phantoms are on the Ramp then Taking Off Pease.

THAT'S MR.PHANTOM TO YOU GOT IT?

I'd prefer to have 2 SUU-23 gunpods more than anything, especially when staffing

Ol Double Ugly

And they still employ those failed rock musicians to make that annoying silly pseudo rock muzak as a background. Get a job or get better so you can join a real band.

this 3d art has heart and soul in it

...Love these older films! ...If memory serves, the last plane to be used by the Air Force, Navy & Marines was the B-25 Mitchell bomber.

Back before The Discovery Channel became garbage.

It looks like a space shuttle

Holy VHS Batman!

Love these documentaries. A bit funny that they always hired a British voice over for all their episodes.

“Although Olds never got his 5th kill.” Lolll sure he didn’t. If he logged 5 kills they would have sent him home. He probably logged 7 or more kills in Nam

OK video, idiotic and unnecessary music

Primitive software, but still capable in the right talented, experienced, and PATIENT hands. So slow. It got me started so that's A-OK with me. I still have a Mac capable of running it, so I might start it up for nostalgia.

good ole tv from 1989!!

Cunningham was shot down by a mig 17 , he's a well known liar

It's such a beautiful jet

F-4; Proof that a brick can fly with a big enough engine strapped on.

The narrator messed up when comparing the Phantom to the Corsair. In his comparison he called the Corsair the F-8 which was not the correct analogy, the Corsair's numerical and letter issue was the F-4U Corsair. Flown by the the Marines and Navy.

28:03 Captain Katherine Janeway selling soup =D

Cunningham was removed from office. I wonder about that.

Who can ever get enough of Phantom II?

These aircraft are very successful in Vietnam hostilities of SAM missiles suffering many casualties. more than those that are computed at the official level.

This is back when I started. I loved Infini-D. That was the day!

Had my share of Phantom bite. God only knows how many stitches.....

What an absolute iconic bird, she served America proudly from 1960-1996. I had a pilot one time at our local ANG base give me a walk around of the F-4 Phantom II and as a kid I thought it was the coolest thing ever, from that day forward many many years ago it became my all time favorite next to the F-105 Thunderchief.

nice video...even commercials were interesting!

Whoever created this, is awesome. Loved watching wings. hope they are able to get more wings. this show was the bomb program of the 80's. Still kick butt to this day.

Wow, this broadcast was from '89

Md's next big project after the f4 was the f15

Probably my favourite aircraft after the Mosquito

Dude in the commercial really just wanted to get the codiene for his drank

I love how the narrator pronounces St. Louis in typical British fashion as "Sin Loo-ee", obviously never heard the typical US "Saint Loo-iss"

At 24:00 Robin Olds is remembered because he wasn't allowed to have his 5th kill. Gen (Then Col.) wanted to stay and fight and lead in Vietnam. Being a West Point Grad Washington told him if he got another kill they'd pull him out of the war. Olds is believed to have between 10 and 12 times he was in line to get a theoretical kill and either let it go or directed a squadron member to take the kill. If Washington had left him alone then the WWII ACE would have theoretically had16 kills in Vietnam. Even if you don't believe that (despite his squadron saying otherwise) he clearly would have had one more for the 5. Seriously, they wanted him out of there so bad they kept changing the rules on him. It got to where he was lying and changing sheets saying he wasn't flying anymore because they gave him a mission cap that once he met he was to return so he stopped recording when he was going out. It is also believed in combat he was forced to make unconfirmed kills and/or gave kills he had to other squadron members.

Sky and sage burner are what made this my favorite jet! Dont build new! Bring back the sled!! What a great second line of defense!!

The F-4 is lot's of smoke and testosterone.
