This video shows never before seen by i suspect most of the world footage of the BA in 1970s flying F-4J phantoms.

The unique stuff is their yellow flight suits.. very rarely worn at all.

I've not seen many videos of them during the F-4 days either and even less of the Echelon Landing which I don't think they did after they traded in their F-4s, so that was a very interesting video to watch.

Interesting video. Most of it looks like it was filmed at El Centro. The landing was at Miramar.

I think most people can enjoy the links, but you should follow the guidance set out and post them in the base theater made for them.

S: Took hammer away from midget.

Unfortunately I am on a dial-up at home, and my govt computer at work blocks Youtube, so I can't see the video mentioned.

However, I have a copy of a movie called "Threshold", made of the Blue Angels when they flew the F4's. It's about an hour or so long, and has a lot of the stomach-wrenching footage from the cockpit included in it. It's a good film about a great bunch of aviators.

If I've translated this into English correctly, you feel hard done by?

Please could you provide links Image to all the other youtube links in the Warbird Hangar that you didn't post?

Maybe Scott needs to kick this guy for not following the rules, since fellow WIXers have asked many times to stop posting video links in the main hanger.

My 2 cents
