I saw this jet around the same time at a show somewhere in New Hampshire. I was 14. I still consider seeing Gen. Ritchie fly this jet one of the most historic aviation displays I've ever seen...or will ever see.
I got to actually meet Bri. Gen. R. Steve Ritchie at the Little Rock AFB Open House in October 1998, got an autograph and had my picture taken with him!
I saw two of the F-4 fly supersonic. They passed like gliders, then you could hear the rolling thunder. As soon as the sound was in front of you, Boom 💥 they did a second pass, but I covered my ears.I couldn’t take two sonic booms.
Is the intake ramp / air splitter the usual place to paint the kills ? Seems a bit of an odd place. On our Phantoms they were painted on the nose just forward of the pilots canopy, in a neat line. Never seen wheels up so early on a phantom.
@@bulldog282 IAF, not USAF. Sorry for not clarifying in the original post. Maintained F-4E's in the early '90s. All the IAF jets with kills I've seen, old and new, have them in the same location. From French jets in the '60s through to F-15s. Seeing them on the air ramp just seemed different and a bit odd as it's a functional part of the air intake, not the fusalage.
Gorgeous Phantom, my fave supersonic interceptor. Hey, can I use some scenes of this video for my aviation tribute music video "Supersonic" 🙏. Obviously giving you the credits in the description! Cheers from Chile 🇨🇱

I worked avionics on this plane when it was at Udorn AFB Thailand during the Vietnam war. I interacted several times with Capt. Richie.
I was there. I was 10 or 11. This was the first time I ever saw the Phantom. What a awesome demo.
My favorite airplane of all time!👍
Love that F-4D Phantom, what a beautiful sight. Use to see them all the time while at Spangdahlem AB Germany 1974-1976. Just reminds me of Freedom.
I can say with much proud that Gen.Ritchie was our wingman during our CF-104 flight!!!

I was at Udorn when Gen Richie downed his 5th Mig put on quite an air show over the base returning from that mission.
Love the Phantom. Seen one fly only once. Awesomeness. The music at this airshow is from one of my favorite movies, The Final Countdown.👍
Saw him fly in to Cannon about ‘82, and took some pics....love the F-4, A-7, F-106.....

I remember seeing the Blue Angels and the Thunderbirds fly Phantoms

What AF unit was this? What years?

So is This model variant the First of its kind ?! Or just the one that was used in Vietnam as Naval only ?

OK!
The music is the engines, no need for regular music
The real 463 is on static display at the Air Force Academy

Icono éste aparato. Muy ajetreado.
This video has been up for two years, and you still haven't changed "fling" to flying.
Oh Thanks 😂
@@BurnerAirDisplay Good video!!!!
Loose the music, I want to hear the plane not music !
As soon as he said, we have some music! Spoilt
Stop playing music at airshows....argghhhhh
We like to hear the engines it's not a pop concert
Love the Phantom
