Robbinsville 1974

Robbinsville, NJ, air show 1974. I can't identify the aircraft taking off, maybe Italian or Scandinavian? The main attraction was the "French Connection" in CAP-10s, their specialty was canopy-canopy aerobatics. At the end of this short clip, it looks like Steve wants to take that Loach home...

Lakehurst 50th 1971
Переглядів 94Рік тому
Naval Air Station Lakehurst celebrated it's 50th anniversary in 1971. The boneyard was an impromptu playground if you used one of the back entrances - that would never happen nowadays. One of the Goodyear blimps paid homage to the vanished lighter than air presence that was the essence of Lakehurst. The Blue Angels F-4 team was fascinating to watch as they mounted their birds and formed up to t...

Oshkosh 1978 We spent the whole week camping in Paul's Park. Lots of fun, lots of aircraft. Took a ride in the Bushmaster trimotor, got a kick out of the United DC-8 touch & go.
USAF Museum 1969

The Air Force Museum in 1969, Wright-Patterson AFB, Dayton, OH. My boss at Lockheed Electronics sent me out to attend a radar display symposium, and there was no way I was going to miss seeing the museum. The XB-70 had made it's last flight as delivery to the museum and was parked out on the ramp, not yet on display when I was there.

Chincoteague 1978

A visit to Chincoteague, VA & Assateague island, 1978. Couldn't get near the lighthouse for the mosquitoes, rented a boat to explore Tom's Cove & see the Ponies..
These factories were apparently so loud the average worker had a similar risk of hearing loss to the average infantryman.
It is possible I am in this movie because I was there as a child. I remember it
Extraordinaria la "MAQUINARIA BÉLICA ESTADOUNIDENSE"
Con los estándares de seguridad industrial actuales, hubieran perdido la guerra.
Thanks for posting this outstanding footage Gary! I attended this event in ‘78 as a ten year old with my Dad, such great memories. We did the trip spur of the moment, so 3 days/nights sleeping in the back of our 1972 Olds Vista Cruiser as there were no motels available. We lived on KFC, Pepsi in glass bottles and junk food. What a show! The B-29, Mustang row, the Corsair mini squadron, rare planes like the Hawker Sea Fury and meeting Pappy Boyington, Chuck Yeager, seeing jets like the Harrier and the Concorde in person for the first time, the Tora, Tora, Tora flyby - just spectacular and priceless memories! The owners and pilots in the Warbird area were so fantastic, I took rolls of photos with my old 126 Instamatic and some were ruined by the heat so this video is pure Time Machine travel 😎❤️. I had just spent months building a 1/48 scale kit of a P-38 and I went gaga seeing one in person, the owner snuck up behind me going on and on to my Dad about it and he was so kind he let me sit in the cockpit and showed me all the work he did on the plane. It was heaven and the show was great, this was back just before the tarmac restrictions due to oblivious public members ruining that for others who paid attention, safety protocols and showed respect. My Dad and I took the Badger across from Ludington, MI to Manitowac, WI and now our daughter has now made the same trip twice! She is a CFI and climbing the ladder of hours to the airlines - we could not be more proud of her accomplishments, no doubt she will fly in to this show one day. This video brought back a flood of memories, we even went to a drive-in so my Dad could finally see Star Wars in ‘78! A double bill with Orca…funny how one remembers all the details closing in on 50 years later, but this event left an imprint on me forever. I will rewatch this video many times to see if I can spot us anywhere in the footage. Hope to go with our daughter again in the years to come, my Dad is 83 now and he will love this video as well. Kudos for making such a wonderful post!
FROM BRAZIL Geração maravilhosa. Tudo tão orquestrado. Obrigado
I was at that show with my Father and my brother. Good times
Probably better made than the 737 Max😅
Production such as that will never be duplicated on such a scale.
My brother, James Dulin, raced his formula one, Pitt's Lil' Monster, no. 8. I would have loved to see him but alas, no formula ones. He died in 1982 from a motor cycle accident.
To Me That B 17 Was One Beautiful Plane 😍
This is a wonderful video
Those women didn't need those boys there, they could do the job themselves.
America, back when we had kahunas and common sense. We just didn’t kill bad guys, every single man, woman and child ground them down to nothingness with pencils, paper, slide rulers and indomitable courage and grit. #TakeBackAmerica
I always cry whenever I see the Grumman cats all flying together like this
my dad told us kids growing up that after Peral Harbor it seemed like it was over night that America was building everything for the war effort, but he said it took time to get there
The ware industry....
And we still use damn rivets to join those plates. Ships discontinued rivets way back but planes still has them.
So very many of those aircraft and crews were lost in combat, weather, and to a much lesser extent, mechanical failure. Some were piloted by 20 year olds. They are so small and vulnerable. I knew some who crewed in those aircraft. Their kind shall not pass our way again.
Красивое видео, хороший самолёт и достойнпя восхищения работа
Вот это конвеер вот слаженость
Lego...
Быстрее чем в Макдональдсе
US mass production was 20yrs ahead of rest of the world.
日本はこんなに服装も先進的で豊かで技術が進んだアメリカに勝てるわけないよ。 There's no way Japan can compete with America, which has such advanced clothing, wealth, and advanced technology.
なんちゅー工業力😂アメリカ🇺🇸 凄いな
1944年でこのスピードで爆撃機作れてたんだ…日本が勝てる訳が無い…
デュヨーリットル隊が捨て身の爆撃やった数年後にb29の大編隊が 日本各地に爆撃してきてしまいには核兵器だもんな... アメリカの工業力ヤバすぎ 月間空母 週間駆逐艦 戦時規格船のリバティ船2000隻?もヤバい😂
What a fast production! This film is unique.
this is why america won the war the relentless logistical superiority they even have an icecream barge folloing the marines to all there battles.
すごいな アメリカらしい大量生産に 特化した飛行機の組み立てですね 素人でも組み立てられるように出来てる んですね
How come women were engaged to perform and quite capable of skilled work during WWII but after the war were paid much less than men for doing the same work?
I think my great grandmother worked in a factory like this.
すごいけど 手袋はしてほしい… あと 男女共同で仕事してるけどちゃんと考えて人員配置してる感じがする 同時期の日本はある仕事は男だけ、またある仕事は女だけ って感じだから 生産力への意識が違いすぎるね
Currently work in one of the original buildings that built these B-17's and later the B-29's. I can see old archived photos of the inside and how planes were line up, the steel columns, which are still there, and the scalloped roof line which used to have windows facing north for more natural light. Not sure why they weren't facing south though? Maybe too much glare...
this is the type of work setting where i like to work in,too many dumbass morons ruined it for everyone and is why they created osha,safety this,safety that..takes the fun out of just about every job..i couldnt stand the safety lady in the boat company i worked at,id have to get my supervisor to tell her i wasnt doing this or that cause it wasnt needed,seatbelt on forklift for 1,id have to get on and off too many times a day and a seatbelt was just ridiculous,someone like myself would never need one but a dumbass would..
You should like the type of dumbass OSHA was designed to protect.
America at its best
The power assisted hand tools accelerated the whole production, it is a secret weapon never showed up in the front line.
So badass, we will never have this might ever again thanks to the elites who hate our country and our freedoms
Who is an elite, exactly? Name names.
@@texaswunderkind if you’re asking that question you aren’t one. Obviously you have NO clue what’s been going on for the last 30 years. Try these families: Bush, Obama, DuPont, Coberg Gotha, Bezos, Fink, Rockefeller, Johnson, Clinton….shall I go on or do you get the message?
@@BCHonea Obama is an elite? His dad was an African foreign exchange student and his mom a small-town white girl from Kansas. He grew up poor. The Clintons also grew up poor. I understand that they became well connected, and politically powerful in the White House, but I highly doubt some cabal of billionaires took them in when they were still poor an unimportant.
すげー ヘルメット無し 私服で作業 自由な感じやね
And not one cell phone in sight. Everyone is just living in the moment!
All the women at work, because the men are at war. What happened when peace came, did the women give up their jobs, did the men go unemployed or were there work for both sexes?
The women all lost their jobs. There were propaganda campaigns that encouraged them to go back home. The fighting men would have been pissed if they survived the war but found no jobs. In fact, there was a mild recession in the late 1940's.
@@texaswunderkind Thank you for your reply. I wonder how the women felt about having first been urged to go to work (Rosie the Riveter), then being urged to go back and mind their homes once again, giving up the freedom gained by earning their own money. I didn’t know about a post-war recession, I always assumed that returning GIs flush with money would boost the economy by buying new cars, homes etc.

工業力やばい 日本が勝てなかった
Великий самолет великой страны великого народа.
Amazing... I wish it was a full video👍
If you want to know in one easy answer why the Allies one WW2 just watch this. Yes, other elements were important such as Generalship, the outcome of battles etc - but at the end of the day, the Third Reich and the Empire of Japan just couldn't match American manufacturing muscle. History repeats itself - just look to China.
Yes, look at China. Their cheap shit is mostly low-quality copies of stolen technology. Their aircraft carrier is an old decommissioned hunk of junk from the Soviet Union. Their "stealth" fighter doesn't have any engines. You go ahead and believe the corrupt CCP propaganda. I will believe facts.
Now you need to assrmble F-35 and Patriot missiles with the same speed...
Preciosa ciencia ficción feminazi 🤮
This video is at least 2x speed. Crazy propaganda!
The US will never have the massive scale of weapons production like what had happened in the World War II.
You are right, it won't. Because there is no need for 100 aircraft carriers and tens of thousands of military aircraft. The world has changed.
