Stories from a WWII P-40 Pilot | #9
The Fighter Pilot Professor
A very unique interview with a WWII fighter pilot named De Lamar Jensen.
Dee Jensen flew several hundred hours as an AT-6 flight instructor during WWII. He piloted a Curtiss P-40 Warhawk. He shares some incredible career stories in this interview we were grateful to conduct, such as surviving an engine failure in a Curtiss P-40 Warhawk, some close calls instructing on the North American AT-6, flying as a flight engineer on the Boeing B-29, and also post-war flying adventures such as being an agricultural pilot on the Piper J-3 Cub, owning a Fairchild PT-19, and briefly flying with the Guatemalan Air Force.

    The nose gear actuator had an internal lock in the up position. When the lock failed to open the nose gear wouldn't extend on landing. I watched the noses of several of them get scraped off while I was stationed at Bien Hoa AB '67-'68.

    Hello. You did a very, very good job, very beautifull. But I have t tell you something. I´m spanish and i tell you for sure that this blue isn´t accurate to the color of the spanish naval air wind, those days, not nearly. It was so dark. The blue you must use is dark prussian blue, Vallejo paint. Your work it´s more than the last two remainig helicopters, in fact one that is exposed in the entrance of a naval base in Spain, and is decolorated by the sun. You can find it searching in internet, or the book "AH1 cobra" serie aeronaval, Ikonos press publiser. SOrry, and thank you

      Thanks! He did actually, but we had to wrap it up since we filmed multiple people that day. One he wished he would have told is that he calls his back seater every Bastogne Day since that's when they shot down the MiG-21. We interviewed the back seater, Duane Buttell, who also became a very accomplished fighter pilot. We just haven't released the interview yet. These things take so long to edit. Worth it though. Check out our either episodes if you get a chance. We have many more to come.

    Even though I am a Marine grunt that served in the early to mid 2000’s. I have always loved this airplane for some reason. It’s just so big and so fast compared to the Soviet era planes they were up against in Vietnam. My favorite aircraft is the F4U Corsair from WW2. I loved watching the old Black Sheep television show from the old days. Pappy Boyington was such a hero to me personally. I was never smart enough to be a Naval Aviator, but as an infantrymen I definitely slept better at night knowing we had people out there watching over us, especially Marine Aviators that are experts in the art of CAS. I know I’ve made fun of “wingers” while I served. As they made fun of us grunts. But we all respected each other and none of us would ever do something to let another Marine down. No matter what their MOS is.
