    3:58 that’s a Fiat G.91PAN used between 1963 and 1982 by “Frecce Tricolori” ("Tricolour Arrows"), the famous aerobatic demonstration team of the Italian Air Force: with a total of ten aircraft, it is considered the world's largest aerobatic patrol! 🇮🇹

    My dad was a US Marine gunner seriously wounded on 25 November 1944 when Kamakazis hit the Intrepid CV 11……at noon they had general quarters, and were instructed to shoot at the sun…..the Japanese attack was torpedo bombers, dive bombers and Kamakazis……the Intrepid was a workhorse, the Fighting I…..!!!!! I’m glad she was saved and is now a museum, for my children and grandchildren to visit history ……

    What I really love about this channel is that it covers things other NYC based channels don't. Great job as always Jon! The Intrepid Museum really is a fascinating place, My husband is an airline pilot and he was in Air Force for 10 years prior to that, ever since we first started dating it's always been important to me to have an understanding of that part of his life, visiting the Intrepid has been so informative over the years. It's well worth a visit, especially if you have a spouse or family member that's been in the military or works in aviation, or even if you don't it's still a great place to check out ✈️🗽

    I used to live about a block away from there in the 80’s and the 90’s and when friends would come to visit, the Intrepid and the Circle Line were a great way to spend time and show them the city. To this day I still get compliments on the times I showed them those two places.

    My father took me to the Intrepid sometime in the 1980s. The F-14 was the star of the show. The next time I was on it was post 9/11 for a memorial type service. I was a Paramedic in NYC. My next trip is going to be with my daughter. I can't wait to see the look on her face when she sees actual space ships.

    Was there a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't in my original plans but we decided to go and glad we did. Very interesting place and the variety of the Intrepid, Growler, shuttle and Concorde makes for a good experience. I especially liked the videos of interviews with past crew. I found them insightful about life on-board. Recommended

    I've been to the Intrepid in 2012 and again in 2018. The first time was right after they acquired the Space Shuttle Enterprise. My local museum ship is the battleship Massachusetts. And I thought that was big. The Intrepid makes that look tiny by comparison.

  • @TyroneBeiron
    @TyroneBeiron 5 років тому +3

    Just visited the Intrepid last week, Wednesday, and saw Dylan at work with a group near the Concorde. One thing I didn't like was that for the tours excluded from the General Admissions ticket, it was not highlighted to us when making purchase. Some of us travel 12 time zones to New York only to realise that we missed out on a limited group tour, and that was disappointing.
    A pity the museum did not get to house the US Air plane which was recovered from the Hudson; of course, I'd prefer Enterprise any time over that plane for reasons of 'space'. Entering the Growler by its nostrils was fun.

    the thing is, i was here one time, standing at an area where i could see the USS Intrepid. back then, i wasnt much of a naval and air force fan, but after watching top gun for like the first time ever (about 3 months ago probably), i started getting familiar with fighter jets i see all over the world or across the sky. when my mom just brought up a picture earlier of a younger ohoto of me standing in front of the USS Intrepid, i noticed that in the picture, there were aircraft on it. One of them was the first to catch my eye, one of my most favorite jets ever, the F-14. i wasnt entirely sure, but i could tell by the wings. so i had to double-check by lookin at this video, and indeed i was right!

    The intrepid is actually the sister ship of the scrapped Enterprise. The enterprise saw every naval engagement of the pacific during ww2 and won eighteen stars. The intrepid was built from the original blueprints of Enterprise but the difference was the deck as this ship has a concrete/ asphalt deck to better use jets while the Enterprise had a completely wooden deck made of Washington state pine and oak which was better for the prop planes. Also the guns were slightly different as the Intrepid got newer guns from Korea and Vietnam. The enterprise had a huge replacement of guns around the Solomon Islands campaign leaving all but one of her original guns. Currently a new intrepid is on the waters as well as the nuclear powered enterprise. Both ships have long histories just have to know about them.

      That is incorrect. The USS Intrepid was a ship of the Essex-class aircraft carriers. The sister ships to the USS Enterprise was USS Yorktown (CV-5) and USS Hornet (CV-8). Intrepid had a wooden deck throughout WW2. It received a strengthened deck after WW2 to handle heavier jet aircraft. Curently, there is no USS Intrepid in commission in the USN

Whats the cost of said venture? Say 10,000 pocket change?? which includes what hotel of means? Do you act as guild for people for a fee? How far is Boston? Would love to see "Old Iron sides.
