- Originally designated the TF-80C, the T-33 made its first flight in 1948. Production continued until 1959 with 5,691 T-33s built. In addition to its use as a trainer, the T-33 has been used for such tasks as drone director and target towing, and in some countries even as a combat aircraft. The RT-33A, a reconnaissance version made primarily for use by foreign countries, had a camera installed in the nose and additional equipment in the rear cockpit.
The T-33 is one of the world's best-known aircraft, having served with the air forces of more than 20 different nations over several decades. The T-33A on display was flown to the museum in 1962.

Your a lucky man, I always wanted a ride on one since it was my first jet to work on when I enlisted in the AF back in 1984. At least I got an F15 ride after we retired our T-33's in 1987 but I still want to ride in one. Thanks for making this video and bringing back alot of memories.
Very cool!
Been a fan of the T 33 since I was a boy.
Born in 67… it was still being used when I was a kid. The styling of that plane and its size always makes me dream of flying one.
The late 40’s gave birth to so many concepts.
The T33 always will be that magical moment between the P 51 and the jet age.
Completely agree
WOW!!! What a ride!
She's a good bird 👌
@@SirDrifto Go girl take it all the way
Hitched a ride on the T-Bird from the Fresno ANG Base to March AFB, CA & returned over the Sequoias in the early 80s, very memorable!
I'm glad you didn't land in the overrun. That was close.
Not what my 2000 hours looked like.
Nice
I flew T-33 in Mexican Air Force
What is the fuel cost per hour average would you say for the T-33 on something like this?
Current prices around $2700/hr is a safe bet with maintence.
