BRITISH PHANTOM PILOT
For even more nostalgia, I recommend the phollowing DVD, which includes:
Intro: Includes lots of carrier shots of UK Phantoms phlying from the USS Saratoga.
Phantom Pilot (1973, 39 min): RAF phlying training via. Biggin Hill, Henlow, Church Phenton, Leeming, Valley and TWU to Coningsby.
Oversight (1976; 25 min): Made using real actors, a good account of sqn pressures on groundcrew and the resulting loss of a Phantom due to insecure wing pins.
Low Flying Training (1971; 23 min): Really ham stuff! It was replaced by a less awphul 'Low Level Navigation' philm a phew years later.
Phinally, a composite of various US Phantom clips entitled 'F-4 Phantom USA' made in 2008.
Available from all the usual sources - just enter the post title into your search engine.
Mercifully, only about 15 sec of clattercopters - and I don't think I spotted anyone wearing pongo pyjamas either....just blues, overalls or phlying suits.
