12:00 - I am haunted by this image. Suddenly in a blue doorway is a little girl, her face looking up in both question and complete innocense; she instantly reminds me of my own little daughter observing things around her. I am 50 years old and I broke down in tears of even merely contemplating the possibility of my own little one being in that same situation. I came here for the A-10 and not disappointed and very glad to see the support that those flying it know they're giving their brothers on the ground; but I left with a perspective that sticks with me that this is always so brutal for the little ones living amongst the conflict. I am deeply and irretrievably moved by those few seconds of her appearance. I can only hope her future improves; and I am extra grateful for the life my daughter has. Blessings upon both their futures.

A brilliant leap forward and a very handsome plane , but an absolute death trap , there is a movie out there about one whose crew abandoned one because of mechanical failure with one crew member left on board .

Just watched the entire programme. Absolutely staggering how these young men managed to land and take off fully loaded from a carrier. Wonderful aircraft, incredibly brave men and some endured dreadful suffering at the hands of their captors. This generation were indeed so very special. Thank you one and all. 🇬🇧

It is interesting that it's mandatory reading for Marines to read the John Boyd biography. He was an advocate of close air support for ground forces, whereas the USAF has minimal priority for that.

One of top gun aggressor pilots who flew the mig 17 under top secret engagement s with top gun students said the 17 turned like a racket ball off a wall

An amazing man with an amazing story. He is remembered with a statue at Edinburgh Airport.

In their rush to be first to fly a passenger jet, the British were doomed to produce a flawed aircraft. In contrast, American aircraft manufacturers, took what time was nessesery to release a more utilitarian design and more reliable airliners that quickly became the preferred choice of Airlines around the world. The British were masters of innovation, yet much less so in implementation.

The increased drag required for descent was less due to the airfoil being clean than to the engines high idle power due to the primitive techno6og early jet engines.

The funniest part of the history of these planes for me is, they were built during the cold war to spy on the Sovjets but were built out of titanium from those same Sovjets😂.

In a span of 47 years we went from humans first flight to this

To think this was all done with slide rulers and math. No computers, os just insane

Absolutely Positively Bodacious!!!4

This guy sounds like Ron Swanson! I thought this was a Nick Offerman narrated documentary. Pretty sweet

I always love to watch this video

Kelly Johnson was a MASTER of making the most beautiful and just as effective aircraft, what a fricking LEGEND.

I saw one flying at an airshow in Belgium. Epic plane! The diamonds of the afterburners are gorgeous. Must have been circling around the airport because I could smell the fuel before I saw the plane

Back when engineers ran the company.

The NBA Seattle SuperSonics were named after the Boeing SST project.

It seems odd to me that the jet engine wasn’t invented before the piston engine. So much more simple in function and construction. Too powerful to run a car though.

Most sexy plane ever. B2 is close, but still...

No proof it didn't happen ..... its a propaganda tool . .. SR71 didn't do all dat he said

woke up to this, not disappointed

Or Google: SR-71 start cart

3970 pounds of thrust.... thats what she said!

y f\ather took u to Belson in 1851/2, where I saw the mass graves. Iwas 9 years old!

Superb documentary true heroes every one of them really uplifted America then a heroric and historic mission

Turbo passed away Dec 23, 2023. Those who knew him miss sitting with him, listening to his knowledge of aviation, his personal aviation stories and his life in the Sky.

B 47 was used by AVRO Canada as test bed for the new engine for CF 105 This engine was attached at the rear on right side
