The dialog and comments are both complex and interesting to say the least.
But did you ever manage it in the F-86 Sabre ?

The trauma of hearing "your empennage is inside me" cannot be overstated. Flight status: grounded.
Laugh!
Years of therapy to follow.
What are you doing, stepF4
🤭
Step Phantom would have sounded better, but well played.
Stuck in the dryer...again?
@@speedfiend74 To be fair, it IS a free use F4.
Sensitive lover, I almost spit my coffee.. Great line Cap
Yup!
So this is how baby aircraft are made.
When two F4s love each other very much…..
@@tbe0116 ... an F-8 is conceived.
Robin Olds recalls this story in his autobigraphy. Great book, great story.
For the last couple of years, you folks have been a part of my daily routine. Thanks so much for the humor and wit. Can't tell you how much I appreciate you and the crew.
Cap: "You have to be a sensitive lover!'
Dark: "I don't know about that..."
[Immediate ad break]
Me: "Perfect timing, guys..."
This just goes to show what a pair of excellent aviators Pardo and Amon were.
tbf, their hook was modeled properly.
Well, this might just be the most Grim Reapers vid that ever Grim Reapered.
I just read the account of this. They had to shut one of their two engines down because it caught fire. When they crossed the border they were at 1800m...
5:32 "How was my up and down position"
If you don't watch and just listen to the commentary, it's the spiciest yet!
A very fun episode; thank you! It is cool you do stuff like this!
"Does his butt look different now?" XD
"What are you doing step-phantom?!"
Poosh optimism always makes me believe things won't end well.
4:19 when Cap says it’s inside me, I lost the plot laughing
I never expected to hear the phrase "It's inside me, viewers" from a RUclips video. OnlyFans, yes, but not RUclips...
Goofy af and I love it! And the senior officer who criticized him for saving his wingman instead of the other aircraft should have been ashamed. Keeping a fellow pilot out of the Hanoi Hilton is priceless compared to an airframe. Sounds like he eventually came around tho
Im wondering if the aircraft Pardo was pushing was actually able to maintain 400kts, or if they were trying this at a lower airspeed...
10:45 Perfect timing to talk about spinning
Drinking game - drink a shot for every 'that's what she said' opportunity in this vid.
We had an emergency over Laos where an
F-4 had one engine out and about 60% engine power on the other engine. The F-4 too turns going inverted to keep him flying. The Nav had already punched out but the pilot was stuck so it was ride it out or....... Normally, a call to a tanker would go out and nurse him along keeping him fueled and using the boom, help him. But a Tanker was too far out. The F-4Es got him within 2 miles of Ubon RTAB when he went down. Have you ever seen a J-79 bent into an l.
5:17 just watching the Radar immediately stop is hilarious
from the photos i saw, the tail spike went through the glass and rested on the metal part of the dash.
the plastic covered glass kinda held it there, and it was just a perfect point in the airframe. to apply the right kind of forces to keep them in the air.
so many ways to impale yourself...
that must of been really freaking hard with the jetwash and turbulance. but im thinking once you get inside that air... there is a point it pushes you together. like nascar drafting.
The "Warning: Explicit" was highly apt. I did spit my tea a few times during this video, well done guys...
Laugh!
Is this how F15 and F16's are made? Then this should be a private moment between two consenting phantoms
I think its how you get F-8s
They did this on the tv series JAG with 2 F-14s. lol
IIRC, the Pardo incident was mentioned in onscreen text just before the end credits of that episode.
I was wondering when you were gonna try this feat
Half the dialogue I am hearing Archer saying "Are we not saying phrasing anymore?"
Seriously given the Grim Reapers MO and this module, why didn’t I see this episode coming? 🤷♂️😁
third method:
(assuming the grabber on the tail hook is modeled as solid for the purpose of grabbing an arresting wire)
Have two F4s fly over the wingtips of the wounded one.
engage hooks on the back of the wingtips.... tow that injured brick.
The hooks have a little forgiveness built in for sliding up/down as you drag a carrier deck for the cable.
- dragging along the back of the wing may have a similar effect?
It's a lot harder than aerial refueling! The distances involved in the Pardo Push are significantly less and there is zero flexibility in the connection. Much, much more difficult!
"High fidelity" heat blur has disappointed me with this plane with all the issues ive found
I could really, REALLY, use a control setup video for this thing
just a thought. could you possibly come up underneath and do it like a piggie back ride.
I wonder if could come underneath the disabled f4 and 'carry' it across the border as opposed to pushing it.
Lots of Gigidy in this vid 😊
Great try boys!
2:04 why couldn’t the aircraft that was doing the pushing land? Was it out of fuel to from the constant re positioning? I much of missed it in video just asking.
Not 100% sure but I think it used all of it's fuel doing the push.
I was wondering who'd be first to try this! Would have been criminal if anyone beat you to it! LOL! (Haven't watched yet but will ASAP.)
LOL! That turned out pretty much as I expected.
They definitely need to add the hook to the collision model. Even if just to use it as a weapon.
The problem is that in DCS contact = damages, regardless how gentle you are.
Funniest video to date! 😂
Poush should have been in the back, you know, Poushing...
You could drop your landing gear and the other pilot could open his canopy and grab ahold of the tire.
I believe there was an incident like this during the Korean War with two F-86s.

CAP-hantom; I am not sure if I am entirely comfortable with this video.
Wasn't something similar in one of the episodes of JAG?
Apart from using a tow rope which technically could work I had a thought.
Could a tanker pull along another aircraft? The thing I don't know is can the aircraft be locked together using the refueling things?
Some days words just don't! 🤪
Does the airspeed indicator still work after you lose the nose cone (and pitot tube)?
Good question!
Weird, I wonder why this video got demonized?....😅
A thing happened...
🍿
Out of context video in 1, 2, 3 😁
I suspect it would work better if they slowed down and the pusher dropped their landing gear, using that to push the vertical stabilizer.
Idea: a battalion of pcl-16 mlrs (18 units) vs a battalion of Patriot missile defense system (8 units), and do the opposite with a battalion of himars va a battalion of hq-9b or hq-22( could throw some of those land based CIWS and the type 625 in for fun)
I reckon someone sold those F-4's on the black market...
What about gear down and push on the main gear with your wings.
LMAO! I have a big grin on my face. Cheers
65 years of F-4 in 2023.
Could he put his gear down and someone hooks to that? I don't fly, so it might be a stupid question.
Doggie Style F-4s
Ummm…. phantom pushing… my missus reckons I do that😮😂
Am I the only one who was giggling like a schoolboy the whole time?
Bro I have been thinking hard about this could a WW2 flack aa batteries stop a drone swarm I really think it would just a drone strike on the Kremlin or something a target impossible to send pilots without servere casualties Please do this
I love DCS but one thing that annoys me about DCS is how fragile the aircraft are. IRL, I watched a video of a Yak-130 slam into the ground while trying to roll low level, bounce back up into the air, and fly for a bit before the pilot was forced to punch out. Same thing happened with the Hornet at El Toro and the aircraft slid for a mile before coming to a stop, 99 percent intact. In DCS if you so much as touch wingtips, you're entire aircraft splits in half. So much as lick the grass flying slow and you blow up.
and yet they took muliple missle hits with the f4 in the top gun 2 canyon run.
these f4s were rather resilient... many stories about the stuff theyd go through and still make it home.
so in that way dcs got something right.
tho simulating glass and plastic may be difficult to do.
@pazsion They’re fragile where they shouldnt be is my complaint. I'm not gonna complain about surviving a missile hit lol.
DCS is still a great simulator, and it worth a try, but unfortunately, the damage modelling is (as expected) not this detailed. The end of the day, it's just a simulator with the main purpose: if you got hit, that part is broken. These small detailed physics are far, even from DCS, at least for the software designed for the current game hardware requirement.
HA !! I was the 666 like!!
