K? DED Dead?

This guy is like steven speilberg

i don't believe the story from israel. mid air collision, tumble, spin and he was conscious enough and had enough faculties to react by hitting the throttle assuming there was no damage to any of the 10,000 pieces in the engines, pumps or electronic. nevermind the fly by wire systems, or the fuel in the tanks that are in both wings. most air collisions end in deaths especially with jet powered aircraft. 600 mph impact is very dangerous. So i call bullshit on the israel airforce story.

The line has been closed, which is a shame after all the hard work that went into it.

OST, from right here in Ventura! In the late 1940s, my mother attended BIOLA University when it was at the intersection of 6th and Hope in downtown LA, and she recalled to me that she had ridden the red car to get around, sometimes.

The purpose of the F-15 was NOT unique. The P-51, P-47, F-86, F-102., F-106, F-4, F-14, F-8 to name a few were all initially built as High Altitude escorts or intercept missions with no intentions of them ever Dropping Bombs. Like the F-15E, all those I mentioned were eventually "adapted" to dropping bombs or be recce birds. He's wrong again. In fact the F-4 was NOT built as a multi roll aircraft, it was built as a high altitude missile toting fleet defense fighter for the NAVY designed to carry MISSILES ONLY. 4 sidewinders and 4 sparrows. And NO gun. Only through trial and error did the F-4 "morph" into carrying a gun and eventually iron bombs and eventually guided bombs and eventually a recce bird and finally a wild weasel. The F-14 was also built as a high altitude long range missile toting fleet defense fighter with NO intentions of ever dropping bombs, and it could track and scan 24 different targets and shoot 6 of them simultaneously with the Phoenix, something the F-15 couldn't do with its sparrows, and it too could look down into the ground with its Awg-9 pulse doppler radar. Oh and the F-14 was developed (1970) BEFORE the F-15 (1972). And and sorry Mr. but having two persons in the cockpit IS BETTER than one. dividing attention and sharing the work load is FAR more efficient and having 4 eyes looking for traffic and targets if safer than 2. That is why only Two seat F-15s are and will be produced from here on out.

Nice work.

Sad to see the San Pedro Waterfront Red Cars no longer in operation. Remember taking it while killing time waiting for my 1st ever Mexican Cruise many years ago. Honest that was the highlight of the whole trip! Not the cruise! Sad it doesn't look like it will come back. Didn't the tracks & overhead wires also got removed? I've another cruise planned for February next year. Honest if it wasn't a themed cruise I wouldn't[ bother. Especially with this Red Car system no more. What a waste of money creating or reviving something only to remove it a few years later.

So glad this video is on here. I miss my Uncle/God Father. Love you uncle Danny

THIS LINE IS PART OF THE PACIFIC ELECTRIC WEST BASIN LINE !

Random question but does anyone have any photos from the 1950's-1960's time period? My grandfather Calvin August Schaefer was one of the technicians/ mechanics that worked on the Hovertrains. Would love more history/ photography of my beloved, now passed grandfather. Anything is appreciated. God bless.

That single seat mentality was prevalent in his speech. Great video!

Lovely presentation! Thank you!

Thank you for your service .

Where are the turbine blades?

Thank You

Good Man.

Uh, the F/A-18 and F-16 did and do have TWS radar modes. Maybe he's specifically talking about the F-16A? The APG-66 on the A wasn't capable of this, but when the F-16C came around, it was upgraded to the APG-68 which features TWS and could track up to 10 different contacts. Even the block 30s which have been on the block for over 3 decades now had this capability. And on the topic of the hornet, I'm almost positive the original F/A-18A's had TWS capability. Of course I respect Dan here, and I thank him for his service but some of the things he claims are slightly misleading or at the very least, biased lol. Which is perfectly fine. If I was an eagle jockey, you bet your ass I'd say it's the best jet out there...and in many respects, it's definitely one of them. The F-14, F-15, F-16, and F/A-18 are all extremely capable fighters and there all good at what they do best. Even the Navy guys flying the old F-14As with TF-30s scored numerous simulated kills against F-15 drivers during DACT. Everyone knows the famous photo of the F-14's gun crosshair planted firmly on the canopy of an F-15. A photo which almost caused Japan to cancel an order of F-15s apparently lol.

F-15E?

Actually 71 is the fiscal year that it was brought.

I've heard of Garret Superchargers

YF-17 Looks just like an F-18 hornet !

rather strange to hear him call the rio or wso a distraction As if you can only do one thing and not take in the extra info you get.. the extra SA. Tomcat crews when properly in tune with one another.. the RIO simply alleviated workload so the pilot can focus more on the flying and fighting.. And while dogfighting, there's a second pair of eyes to keep track of more then one enemy... Nobody can thus sneak up on yer 6 because pilot is to focussed on enemy up front.. Just sounds very very strange to hear that comment bout backseater being "overhead" or "distracting"

Great work. ✔️💯🏆 Thanks so much for sharing. 😉👌🏼

RIP Dan Delane.

these talks are just gold :D

What a wonderful talk and history thank you.

Dang High Maintenance

A wonderful man and so wonderful to share his life with is beautiful daughter..

Truly inspiration

These immigrants we need way way more of... A great man

Wonderful history and a wonderful man...Thank you...

Fascinating lecture!

I sadly found out today when I got my copy of the 8th A.F. Historical Society magazine that Wilbur passed away on March 1st this year. My thoughts are with his family.

Wrong, the tiger jaws first appeared on Messerschmitt 110 s in North Africa featured in Life magazine, and that’s where the Flying Tigers got their idea, look it up from a reputable source on Wikipedia !

Really enjoy these talks and learn so much. These folks are really special and deserve our respect. Some never make it back. For their bravery and service to our country my thank you is never enough. Thank You to all that served and are serving now. Thank you for making these videos!!

I wonder did paths of Mr.Conlin and Frank Losonsky before or after the war years as both have mentioned some history of residence in Detroit as further background if any exists likely in yet still classified files.I would ponder in the future with an historian putting some personal bent that occasioned an retelling be presented from transcripts of an infamous veteran recollecting.....an important mission that's been declassified meaning after the sensitive relation of secrecy has passed from military importance.

Coolest dude in the world, period.

I was stationed at Wheelus in 68-69. I was stationed at Kunsan 1980-81-82-83. I retired in 1989, and have those wolf head decals on the windows of my Jeep. Thank you Christina for the wonderful stories of your Father.

Amazing engineers without software CAD tools such as Catia,Solidworks,Inventor etc .I think most of the calculations and drawings were made by hand or maybe by programming.

Still can't believe we retired the F14, the political dweebs need to burn some money, but the F22 being single seat, the pilot is easily overwhelmed in a hostile environment. The decision makers that retired the A6E with a F18. We took 2 F18s on a 1hr low level at 200 ft. They couldn't keep up, they had to go to burners to keep up. The A6E was 420 indicted with 18 MK 82s. The F18s had to go above 10k to conserve fuel. We competed the mission with F18 flying a Mig Cap over us. We flew many flights at China Lake. If we had a good INS we could loft the bombs from a mtn ridge away without being seen by the AA systems around China Lake, they thought we did complete the mission until the MK 82 started to rain on target. The F14 and the A6E(real IFR bombers) was better than what we have now,.any single seat fight going against a two seat fighter will lose most of the time. From the Man Moscow fears the most!!

was this the collision that gen. crumm was killed in.

Went and saw pav2 at torrance, its alot bigher than i expected and the rudders are enormous, a truly elegant aircraft.

ROE's are always problematic

Outstanding rebuttal when your leading the pack but it was a choice and Caucasians had the right it was their country now just like the Spartans but Mexico was their with our blood line or blood stock.
