That's cool, my dad flew F-100's, F-105's and F-106's in his 26 year USAF / ANG career. One of my favorite memories was watching him blow stuff and shoot stuff up with the 20mm gatling gun in the F-105 at the Warren Grove Gunnery Range. Those were the good oles days! He retired from this unit just before they transitioned to the F-16 way back when.
 
RE: F-4...still after many years, one of my favorite air craft!

Is it just the way the video was shot, but I noticed the lack of the tell-tail exhaust(?).

Awesome! He must have some really cool & interesting stories to tell. :props:

My father was a technician, stationed at Ubon, Thailand (how the parents met). He worked on Weasels and Thuds. Went on to work for Lufthansa until retirement.

Good chance he worked on some of the Thuds my dad flew as I know some of them were sent to the New Jersey ANG.

My pops did they same thing. Pan Am and retired with Delta.

A few of them that were used as drones had engine upgrades, that's probably one of them. The TD means Tyndall AFB which is where the F-4 and now F-16 drones are based along with the new F-35's.

Thanx for the info.

That exhaust was visible at always the wrong times, but man they were a great sight!

Anything political = Can of worms.

With that, I'd be lying if I didn't enjoy the smack down.

Campuses around the country are becoming more like daycare centers for adult children than institutions of higher learning. Shame.

Good to see a good number of younger people do not buy into the social justice, "safe space" nonsense.
