Sounds crazy. There must have been close-calls, or worse?

During training you flew 480 knots ground speed initially 

IP to target 540 ground speed

Egress depending on the threat 600 to supersonic 

I flew Reconnaissance Phantoms the only defense you had was speed and tactics 

Now if you can believe this we used to do that video at night in the mountains 

It’s called Terrain Following only us the the F-111 and the A-6 could do that at night in the rocks as we used to call it.

It was fun but dangerous a night TF ride in the Appalachian Mountains was not for the weak of heart !

Awesome, thanks for sharing that! I couldn’t help but crank my head side-to-side as he was doing those banking turns.

 

What kind of speeds are we looking at in this segment? He was flying over populated areas, which I’m sure must have startled the people below.

 

I know the subject was brought up a week or so ago, but man, having your own fighter jet just to play around would be incredibly thrilling.

 

They mentioned the Italian’s training flights in Goose Bay, Canada. My uncle worked for nearly all of his life at Canadair and started his career working on the Sabre, finishing up with the Challenger business jet when he retired. Did many jobs, but for the most part was a foreman. He was sent up back in the ‘80s to Cold Lake, Alberta... He was never allowed to talk about it! Probably had something to do with the “Peanut” (CL-227 Sentinel). His only remarks was that it was too damn cold (I suppose he never clued into the name of the place).
