      It's a small world. Found one of my old high school Co student retired security forces a Chief and one of my bosses at my PT job is a retired a Maj security forces. I did my 24 years a maintainer. AT38! F16 KC135..you may have deployed on a tanker but probably on 130s? It's a small world and I enjoy your vids. You found something you love after serving. Stay safe!

      I never flew on a 135. My brother is a major now. He was an enlisted avionics mechanic on f16s for about 9-10 years and then switched over and got his commission. My dad did 38 years and retired as a colonel. I flew on several 130s but my favorite was the C17. I deployed to Oman in 02, Baghdad in 06, and Kyrgyzstan in 2010. the air force really is a small world. Seemed like anytime I went TDY I saw people I knew. I was also CATM for 12 years as well.

      Wow your family is great. Be proud of your service. I was trained by your co CATM compadres everytime I went to fire M16. Never had to Qual small arms. You kept us crew chiefs straight, I qualified expert a couple times I wasn't a great shot.. not enought space here to shoot breeze but you're awesome. The airforce has a lot of retirees and I still can't beileve I served and retired. Seems like only yesterday I was on that flightline turning planes all over this planet. Good nite talk with you sometime.

    I never could own a classic blackberry as I was very young when it came out and my parents couldn't really afford it at that time. By the time I really needed a phone, iPhone was the buzz, so we bought that. But, we did have a Nokia phone with a qwerty keypad which I adored. I would really like to own a Blackberry someday just because I think it is one of the most classiest companies ever to exist. Thanks for the video and i really hope you are doing well during these tough times. Keep uploading

    I have 3 bb classics, I tried the bb key-2 for the app capability, but went back to my classic, there is nothing that compares to the security-and speed of the texts, emails, but yes for the apps we need these days, lyft uber-banking etc..I have a samsung android..though my bb classic is my only communication devise, hands down the best, I travel out of country for work(or use too) and the moment I landed my bb classic was on high alert-showed security alerts constantly- I feel very protected with my BB-and I plan to keep it as long as possible-Thanks so much for these insightful and informative videos!!

    I own two Blackberry Classics new in the box. Sadly, it’s too late to unbox them as nowadays in Portugal no operator bothers to provide the BIS anymore. It ended in March 2020; they said it was not profitable. What I have here is a pair of expensive, beautifully made phones that were left without the chance of making no more than calls and SMS, like any $20.00 phone. No email capacity, no Internet anymore.
    I own a 9900 too and frankly, I think that its battery is by no means up to the task, severely downgrading an otherwise good phone. And I have a drawer full of Curves and Bolds that I carried for seven years, all retired when the BIS ended here... Really sad.

      It depends of your habbits and expectations.
      Classic will give you better keypad, but Passport bigger screen and more performance.
      I'm a Classic user, but I'm planning to switch to a Passport 'cause of media consumption. I know that Classic have the better keypad and voice call, but I need more than 2 GB of RAM and and a much bigger for media, as well as more performance for more Android apps.
      If you're just a simple guy who don't rely of social apps, than Classic is definately an ultimate communication device for you, but if you're hanging on yt a few hours everyday, or using social media apps very often, than Passport is better for you "cause it have a much better performance in overall stats.

    Have never tried one, would also love to have it in my (tiny but growing ) collection. I know that Skype is a bit 2000s, bit Skype Lite works quite well on BB10, even video calls. I also set up Whatsapp successfully on a Leap that I have to an employee after her phone passed away. I also think Line might also still work. Never tried WeChat, nobody really seem to use that in South Africa...wonder if Hangouts will work via Firefox, gonna give that a try! I found a Leap in white for vert cheap, rare to see the color versions of BB10, think I am going to take the plunge! Cheers!

    I slipped in the creek at my camp and lost my BlackBerry Classic to water damage. I rarely slip as I've crossed that creek hundreds of times, but the one time I did it was listening to music on my phone. Luckily I was about 2 months away from paying it off so after paying it off early I was excited to upgrade to the Galaxy S8 because I had grown tired of lack of apps and some of my favorite being unusable on the 1:1 display, but after I got my Galaxy I began to miss the Classic after the newness wore off.
    Verizon recently killed 2G, meaning you can't make phone calls. If it weren't for that I would have gotten a new Classic. I'm also a college student hunting for my first car, so i can't buy a Key or Priv.
    The BlackBerry Classic is the best phone I've had. Better than the Galaxy S4, better than the iPhone SE. I really hope someone picks up the licence, as Blackberry is easily the best brand I have owned.
