    Excellent video, thanks! My first career as a professional maintainer began on the F-4 at MacDill in 1977.

    First love. :)

    I do not believe the F-4EJ depicted has wing slats.

    Here is one way to fly it.

    A Luftwaffe colonel's farewell flight for his friends. Now mud-splattered friends.

    Mitsubishi heavy industries built 138 F4's, not American made F4's.

    All wonderful videos. The last one reminds me of being plane guard for carrier ops for the John F. Kennedy during my ship's (USS Julius A. Furer, DEG-6) 1972 Med cruise. On aircraft launch, we would be running balls to the wall stationed a few degrees off the JFK's bow, at about 2000 yards. Her aircraft at that time were A-7's and F-4's. When they were catapulted into the air, the F-4's would coming screaming low level over us.

    got my first ride in F4, as part of the Navy pilot recruiting program, out of Floyd Bennett Field ( for me)... they picked up the tab for air fare, lodging, and the use of a white Chrysler 300 convertible for the weekend, plus a couple of rides in the F4... great memorable inducement to join up
