百里基地 F-4 オジロワシファントム さようなら302飛行隊 Goodbye 302sq F-4 OJIRO PHANTOMS

A phantom with ” White-tailed Eagle ” mark on the tail no longer flies in the sky.
If you see it, it's a real phantom.
There are still 301 squadron and 501 reconnaissance phantoms at Hyakuri base. However, these are also scheduled to retire in 2020.

The most beautiful airplane of all time. I really hope countries or people out there that is in possession of this beauty would be able to keep at least one in mint flying condition.

I remember sitting in my car on Jefferson St. at the end of the runway getting a rush from the sound of them taking off.

​@@stephenreynolds6239 Pondered that... prototype was flying in '58, empty weight just over 30Klb, engines reheating are putting out 17,845lbf each for 35,690lbf thrust... 5000lb more than empty so it's definitely possible. Now, second part... the EE Lightning was flying in 1954 as a prototype, the F.6 version's engines do 32,000lbf reheat combined, but empty weight is 31,000lb... there's not a lot of freedom there. I think you *might* get T/W ratio over unity on an EE Lightning, but you'd be taking off with so little fuel you may be gliding back down after your first attempt. The F-4 appears on paper to be capable of T/W >1 with a fair amount of fuel. The F-15 though, holds a record for entering supersonic flight... vertically.

These warbirds looked every bit the part. Developed an new appreciation for the F4 only long after I was blinded by later f-series fighters after it. Really is such a beautiful aircraft that's unmistakenly unique and unlike any other jet before or after it. Of all those who've flown it, as well as other more recent f-series fighters, when asked which plane they preferred, they all unanimously said the F4. This disappointed me a bit in the beginning because i was such a huge fan of the F14, but when I heard their reasons why i.e. ease of flight, uncomplicated, comfort, dependability, fun, muscle car feel, it made a lot more sense.

Seemed as though to fix almost anything, you had to take other things apart to get to it and even then, lots of modified tools and clever contraptions dreamed up to get the job done. F-4 was the initiator of "maintainability" to be designed into follow-on fighters and other military hardware. Still an awesome bird for it's day.

As one pilot I watched once said, "When you strapped on a Phantom, and you brought those J-79's up to power, you knew you were strapping on a manly piece of equipment." Watching this, I was truly moved, especially as I thought of all those Vietnam crews, from all the branches, as well as the Israeli Air Force crews, who rode this jet into battle, some never to return. It made generations of maintainers into grown ups, and itself a legend. Thank you Phantom, for all you've done. You long ago earned your place in the pantheon of magnificent aircraft.
