Comments below the video. Here are 3, check the rest.
“The F-15 was developed to counter the MiG-25 Foxbat, except the Soviets lied about what the Foxbat could do and so Uncle Sam made a jet fighter to beat an imaginary super plane and still won.”
“As a retired Eagle driver who flew the F-15C with the 43rd TFS based, at that time, at Elmendorf AFB in Anchorage Alaska, I want to thank you for giving Rodan the tribute she deserves.
The years I spent flying the Eagle passed far too quickly. It was an honor and a privilege to fly the F-15C, and my final flight in her marked the saddest day of my life. I’m sure the F-22 is amazing to fly, but if I were offered the opportunity to serve another tour I would choose the Eagle without a second’s hesitation.”
“As a former F-15 crew chief I can tell you it is a bad ass when it comes to maintenance too. On the F-4 Phantom it would take 5 guys 8 hours just to get an engine out, and that’s even after the removal of 2 missile launchers. When I was in the 8th TFS Black Sheep back in the late 70s we could change an engine in-between daily sorties in about 2.5 hours increasing mission readiness to ridiculous levels. I even got to go on a 5-day cross-country flight in one of four F-15s and had no issues. On one departure my pilot did one of those straight up to 35,000 feet, at 25,000 feet we exceeded the speed of sound. When people ask me what it was like I tell them that it was the most fun I’ve ever had with my clothes on. EagleKeeper 1 out.”
Good morning, radu...and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.
Did you and Champ get any more mowing done?
This is an awesome story & worthy of your time.
