September 12, 20215 yr Author comment_71600 As you can probably tell, I've gone on a bit of a naval aircraft binge over the past few weeks. I found another gem today. Here's the great Steve Hinton piloting an F4U-1 Corsair with in-flight commentary. Report

This happened during a break at the CWH during an airshow. S! Report

He could jump in just about any plane and just figure it out. S! Report
October 3, 20215 yr comment_72127 That F9F is on my model bench right now. I went past Addison airport a month or so ago and darn if they didn't this thing in the collection. I think there is another one nearby or this is the same one repainted. Report

October 29, 20215 yr Author comment_72915 Looks like I struck gold again. Here's a 2-hour interview with Lt. Col. Josef Miler who flew MiG-21s and 23s with the Czechoslovak and Czech Air Forces. Click "CC" for English subtitles. Report

May 14, 20233 yr comment_83465 I knew that was Planes of Fame's Zero even before I saw the tail number. Besides this gem the uploader has some other pretty interesting videos. 😀 https://www.youtube.com/@-juno-takaleon3830 ------------------------------------------- Those wide open areas around the old Norton airbase, Lake Mathews, and Chino airport where he was flying in that video are fairly hemmed in now with houses and warehouses. 🫤 https://goo.gl/maps/7Eu2wUhcU5FBXhqK7 ------------------------------------------- Wheels Report
February 12, 20242 yr comment_87563 Found this while looking at YouTube today. It goes through all four branches of the NVA. Not only is the music funky, but some of the shots of equipment and personnel are really interesting. I especially liked "a night out on the town in Cottbus" @21:14. And the spinning protocol training @ 23:50. Report
