You guys are the last hope we have of capturing high quality video of these beautiful old jets in action and on the ground. Please don't stop making videos of them. It will probably be only a couple more years before they are taken out of service.

[@brrrtbacheniraq873]

9 years and 2300+ hours in the Phantom, E and G. Great video. Φαντάσματα για πάντα!!

[@quackgarage9551]

WE NEED MORE OF THIS

[@ikeman5774]

The F/4 Phantom is my favorite fighter jet. I was in the Air Force and use to sit on the flight line in trucks about 100ft. away from several Phantoms taking off. We had our flight line headset hearing protectors on, even in the truck the protection wasn't enough. The Phantom is big loud. I think the only thing louder is a B-52.

[@petmath2073]

These ex USAF F-4s were withdrawn from use around 2005. Those that currently still flying are upgraded F-4s bought by Hellenic Air force in the 70s. So I believe 68-402 and the like are not flying since many years.

[@AndrewNutley-lf9uy]

The UK Phantoms used different engines (Rolls Royce Spey I believe) and consequently didn't smoke as much as these

[@4D-369]

@AndrewNutley-lf9uy certainly did use Spey engines on UK F4s, RB.168.Mk.202. This required huge airframe modifications and enlarged air intakes for these engines as they are wider than US J79s. However, the UK F4 produced more drag on it after these engines were installed. Performed better at lower altitudes but not as good as the J79s at higher altitudes.
