SA-8?  Nope.  Wazzat?

But just thinking about it – would be cool break sound barrier as low as you could over known SAM sites.  Might even rattle Jane Fonda – if she was there.

(had to go to my ACM flash cards for the "shackle")





I used to love to "hold" a shockwave on the deck.  Just aft of the ailerons was controllable.


 

Saw the Navy F111B on the ground at NAS Oceana once.   Not impressed. 

Kind of the Bradley fighting vehicle of the sky.  Tried to do too much with one airframe.   Designed by committee and I'm not talking Fighter Mafia.

 

I saw cockpit footage of a "bleed-air blimp"  trap on a carrier.... now there was some flying!  Not sure it would have survived a Bolter and heard it was lucky he caught 2 wires!

I have looked up at Stuckey’s signs on low levels in Kansas and Nebraska 

 

A lot of those levels were right over interstates  going east/west out there between the medians 

 

I remember once when I was very aggressive 

And very young , I thought I could fly under an interstate over pass !

 

I was maybe 10’ off the deck doing 480 ground speed ( that’s a mile every 6 seconds for you civilians) with a great WSO and saw it on the horizon 

Decided better not and I am here because of it 

I could do a shackle at 100’ and not even think about it when I was in my prime!

 

Those were the days

 

Did you ever see the F-111B model that the navy tested on the boat?

There is a picture of it somewhere 

When Mac was trying to make the F-111 an

All service fighter

I would have loved to see that trap!

Yes a TF failure could mean death at night 

You had to be watchful 

The 

Phantom was hand flown along with the A-6 

The F-111 was on autopilot and it was mandatory!

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).
