2 Day Desert Exploring
I wanted to share with friends and viewers what one of my desert exploring trips are like. I often mention to friends how neat and beautiful the desert is and how much fun I have when I go.

    I really enjoyed the documentary! I remember when we used to drive on base (Mayport) to pick up my father at work, and when my mom worked for the USO, there was always this F4 Phanton sitting at the end of the runway that ran parallel to the road getting in. That's back when my Dad served on the Saratoga. I even got to witness the F4 doing touch n go's on the deck of CV60 on a tiger cruise back in the day. It was awesome. I love that I was the 1000th liker of this one! Congrats and keep up the amazing work. As a videographer and Photographer, I really love the angles and it overall was a nice production.

    The flight crew in the accident airplane and the producer-director in a second camera ship departed for a planned aerial photography flight. During the filming operation, the director issued a series of instructions to the accident flight crew, and the flight crew maneuvered their airplane pursuant to the instructions. After filming for about 1 hour, the producer, who was in the camera ship at 5,500 feet mean sea level (msl), directed that the accident airplane's crew to perform a "sharp snap roll to the right and pull down out of frame." The crew responded by rolling into a right 135-degree bank and descending. During the attempted recovery from the near split "S" course reversal turn, the airplane impacted the underlying 3,100-foot elevation hillside. Cameras in the accident airplane and the camera ship recorded video and audio during the accident flight that was reviewed during the investigation. No abnormalities in the accident aircraft were observed. The severity of the impact and fire damage to flight controls and associated system components precluded confirmation of their preimpact integrity. Examination of available airframe and engine components revealed no evidence of preimpact mechanical malfunction.

    The National Transportation Safety Board determines the probable cause(s) of this accident to be: The flight crew's failure to maintain terrain clearance during an intentionally performed course reversal turn at low altitude. app.ntsb.gov/pdfgenerator/ReportGeneratorFile.ashx?EventID=20060306X00269&AKey=1&RType=HTML&IType=FA

    Awesome to see you posting again. I love the desert as much as you do and appreciate all the work involved in producing a quality adventure. Was wondering what that kite shaped stone placement is ? 4:00 was thinking direction marker for ww2 pilots? but it looks more native anthropogenic like the turtle near Barstow. Can you clue me in.

    • @aircraftcrashsites1747
      @aircraftcrashsites1747 2 роки тому

      Thanks! I can't confirm any info on the rock formation as of yet. After visiting it I believe it is Native American related and Plan to do some research and follow up.

    • @EfficientRVer
      @EfficientRVer Рік тому

      At first I thought it was a marker for a town/camp/mine or military training area starting with Y. Then I thought it might be a cocktail glass. In any case, I think its style is more 1920s to present, than Native American, but you never know. People have always liked playing with rocks, and using them as art, pointers, or a way to mark territory.

    Interesting video. I did similar crash hunting as a youngster in the Scottish mountains with a list of crash sites from RAF Lossiemouth. Found a Dehaviland Mosquito. The wood was long gone but we did find one of the RR Merlin engines before the weather forced us to return to the Inn for beers in front of a warm fire. More latterly in Papua when we visited a DC3 crash site high up in the jungle, a very tough high altitude jungle trek. This was the epic WWII Shangri La aircraft of great fame. A later visit to the site by a friend discovered a college ring which he traced the owner of and returned to their family in the US some 70 years after the crash.

      Me too. I waded out to the flying boat wrecks in broome Australia to see a Dornier and PBY Catalina, both almost complete but obviously very corroded from being in the sea for decades. Also in Dartmoor UK a Lancaster site - loads of molten metal and small parts. Finding a 'Mozzie' must've been very exciting!

      I found this video and your comment by accident. I had read lost in Shangrila and a friend from Our local Lions Club had been Commissioned by the Queen of England to spelunk caves in New Guinea. Before watching a show of His Exploits that He accomplished with other spelunkers and a troop of native porters and guides familiar with the native method of scaffolding cliff sides He insisted we all share a drink from a genuine native gourd. As we watched the presentation We all noticed that the Native’s went completely naked except for what We just drank from covering their Coileach. I hopeI got that Scots Gaelic translation right. Thought You might get a laugh out of it. I grew up at the base of Whites Hill in Fairfax Ca. The site of a B-17 crash on its approach to Hamilton Field. My Grandfather and One of My Uncles guided the Army to the site. See B-17 crash Whites Hill Marin County. A High School Friend Wrote a Story about it . We are in the credits. Distant ancient relatives who had been defeated by the Romans at the Sombre River in Belgium were later used as mercenaries along the Scottish Border and influential in the evolution of the English Language. I like Old Blind Dogs and Allistair Begg too.
