0:30 Ha... looking at it like this you would imagine doing an emergency release of the stores was very popular due to the button being so weathered. But it is probably the button most pressed by visitors to the museum because it has colorful border around it
What a heavy chunky machine, everything about it is heavy and and moves heavily from buttons to surfaces to the way things look an, it is amazing people strapped into these things and actually fought in the air with it against other aircrafts
That cockpit is from a 906th TFS aircraft that I crewed on from 1987 through 1990. The 906th also has 2 aircraft on pedestals in front of AFLC command headquarters. It was formerly two Phantoms. Now it's a Phantom and Falcon...
@@ComdrStew they're not going to construct an individual cockpit for a movie. I question the knowledge of the people at the Museum. I was stationed at Wright-Patterson for 3 years... on top of that, the individual taking the video claimed that is an F-4U, which would be a Corsair. Not an F-4 Phantom II...
Interesting enough I found this on the museum site "This forward fuselage section of a Navy F-4B (BuNo 151424) was used in the ABC television series "Call to Glory" when cockpit scenes of the F-4 were needed. It was refurbished and marked as a USAF F-4D (S/N 66-7660) assigned to the 906th Tactical Fighter group at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, during the 1980s. It was restored by museum volunteers and painted by members of the 906th Tactical Fighter Group". Thats honestly really cool that it was refurbished for use, cant imagine screaming along in that beast.
@@howlingsparrow2997 I worked WCS on F-4C, F-4D, F-4E, F-4F and F-4G aircraft. If this is a USAF phantom, it must an F-4C based on the size of the combining glass. I also noticed the landing gear handle and the tail hook handle are missing.
@@alanhess9306 Could be, however at the time when I made this comment I got my information directly from the museums site and this is what they had tot say about it. I’d take your word on it though given the knowledge you have on it first hand.
It's at the Dayton, Ohio Air Force Museum. It is just the cockpit section that was used in a movie, but it was made by McDonnell Douglas for the movie.
What? Did he say F4U? The F4U is the Chance-Vought Corsair propeller-driven Navy/Marine fighter from World War II. This is an F-4 Phantom II supersonic all-weather fighter bomber. Please know your aircraft, Sir. Good look around the cockpit, I'll add.
Cannot wait for this in DCS. Hope Heatblur gives it that retro and raw vibe they gave the Tomcat.
As good as the Tomcat is, I don't think they will disappoint.
In 3 days, we will have this beauty in DCS!
I'm in love. This is the sweetest old school cockpit. No wonder Robin Olds loved the Phantom so much!
Wish more museums had detailed and clean cockpits like these

Best museum ever! I believe I've sat in the same cockpit. It's in Dayton, Ohio.
Yeah that's the one.
i was there in november i loved it. my friend sat in the pilot i was in the back seat it felt so cool to sit in one of these
Phantom Phorever
Another amazing video... I could sit there for hours
I wish I could have recorded more, there were a few people waiting to get in it.
Feels very much like how those USAF Phantom drivers felt over North Vietnam battling SAM, AAA and MIG threats.
WOW... that's amazing video.... phantom is my favorite jet.....😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
👍👍👍
There is also one on the U.S.S. Midway standing guard in San Diego, CA.

I asked the people at the museum. They told me it was made for a movie, but it was made by McDonnell Douglas, so it is an exact copy of the cockpit.

I've sat in that thing several times best fun I've had with my kids
What surprised me was how comfortable it was. Felt better than my recliner, lol.
Where is this cuz I’ve been waiting for museums with the f-4
It's at the Dayton, Ohio Air Force Museum. It is just the cockpit section that was used in a movie, but it was made by McDonnell Douglas for the movie.
my pops worked on these as a tech sgnt u know when.

Good look around the cockpit, I'll add.
Hasn’t a clue!! Once at full forward on the throttles, push them outboard (left) then forward for the Burners..
Was wondering how to do it, lol.
Filing away on my HOTAS as we speak! Thanks!
And you thought YOUR dashboard was complex.
Simpits are never complete 😁
Did he say F4U??
I probably did. This was a week after DCS said they were going to be releasing the F4U, so it was probably on my mind.
Que suerte subirse a un f 4
Lo siento, el español no es bueno. Una utilería de película pero todo interior real.
@@ComdrStew muchas gracias por leer el mensaje pero no deja de ser emocionante saludos desde México cd
F4U ? lol
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤...!!!...
