At 5 yr.s old I remember my mother woke us 4 kids to watch my father USAF Col Ted Dorris (ret) take off at dawn from Eglin AFB heading for Vietnam. Should have been in 1966. He ended up at Ubon. He said flying was the most fun you could have with your clothes on! I am beyond proud of him and ALL others who served and those serving now...........

Why are the ground crew without ear protections?
@trumanstumo17187 ай бұрын
Good point. When I was plane captain at Pax river in 1960-63 ear protection wasn't mandatory, so now at 81 I can't hear anything that is in the high-pitched range!

For those that fly RC EDF jets, this is the exact airplane the Freewing F-4 is modeled from. 67-463 from the Triple Nickel squadron.

Great video! I remember the F-4 Phantoms doing TOLs at Holloman AFB in Alamogordo NM when I was stationed there in 1976. I was assigned to the 6049th Combat Support Group, hospital division, and half of the floor in my barracks were housed by aviation maintenance troops...Great guys to hang with!

I don't believe there is such a thing as a RF-4D. For the USAF there was only a RF-4C and they were never assigned to Clark AB. They were however assigned to Kadena Air Base to the 67th.

We had RF4's from 1979- 1983 that I know of. I worked on them every day along with F4E's, F-5E's, C130's, C5's, C141's and many other transient aircraft from several different countries. Our RF4's flew every day.

Steve, my sentiments exactly! I worked building these wonderful birds at McDonnell Aircraft in St. Louis from 1963 to 1967. If you could see all the fabricated pieces and miles of wiring inside them, you would wonder how they got off the ground. But after they fired those J-79 engines and went to burner straight up and out of sight, they left no doubt in anyone’s minds! The F-4, nothing like it!!
