Great film, Chief! Kinda nostalgic seeing the Tomcats and Prowlers!
Charlie Awaiting the new Microsoft Flight Sim and will eventually buy a new computer. Running a Chromebook for now!
Thanks for the vid Pete.
Those were the days when there were different flavors of aircraft instead of mostly lawn dart F-18's
IMHO, they should of kept the Tomcat (F-14) and just spent for updates, avionics, etc.
I remember at Miramar when the phase out of the F-4's and phase in of the F-14 was going on.
Before that the F-4's for the F-8's. And so it goes.........
Spliced some good stand-alone vids together, I even saw some "Final Countdown" shots. Just counting everything show that is now retired to included the legacy Hornet.

Thank goodness the background music was not some form of Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone".
