love that plane! I made the papercraft of this airplane few months ago with simulated engine weight on both sides. with an admirable glide, I need to give a standing applause for the aerodynamic quality. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Dayum. Why am i inside when the sky is so blue!!

I'm not trying to make you jealous...really! But I have a signed copy of Catch-22. Signed by Joseph Heller, of course.

We are so glad you enjoyed your visit, Matt! Can't wait to have you on board again soon. Thanks for all of your kind words and your support.

My first airplane model build was a B58A. I recall the box called it the "Hustler". I won a trivia contest where the answer was "B58 was called the Hustler".

we'll never have a real flying aircraft movie like ever again, given CGI, state of the art computer vfx

incredible podcast, outstanding!

Thank you for making this great film! God bless and have mercy on all these great heroes to whom we owe our freedom. What an amazing human being who did so much for others after the war. Humbling.

Always loved the b-25 since I can remember. Bucket list crossed off with a ride on Panchito! Fantastic sequences in catch 22. Amazing. No CGI! Nice hearing behind the scenes from one of the pilots.👍

I was a copilot in one of the B25s with DonHackett on the movie. Lot of crazy dangerous flying. We also had our PBY civilian landseair amphibian on the movie set in Guyamas. Don got Parmount studios to pay for us to fly it down as an “ airsea rescue” plane but only used it to take movie people on side trips during filming breaks down Baja. I have a lot of good photos to share if anyone wants

Godspeed, good sir.

I worked on that aircraft in the late 80's as a USAF Egress tech.. Cleanest plane I was ever in..

I skip the first two minutes to avoid the beta-male music.

Amazing generation.

Bloody amazing story from a real hero.

Fantastic video, and I am sad the Voodoo got passed over, although i understand for the wings, and it's nice seeing 3 of my favorite jets, the 104, 106, and 101

So glad they have one at the AF museum in Dayton. My favorite plane.

Most beautiful war plane ever made.

I hage a lot of time for Rowland White's writing. Well researched an always engaging coverage of the subject matter. Of all his books i've read i have to say i am finding Harrier 809 the hardest to get through. It seems heavy and plodding compared with something like Vulcan 607.

Anyone have a link to the book he mentioned? Critical moments

Love the Typhoons & the MKV Tempest,. Super cool and very effective for their time. Thanks for your service & the very interesting life that you led during the service years. Fantastic video.

The Typhoon was another underated fighter .

I toured Pima two years ago on a brutally hot day. The heat dictated a trolly tour, so I didn't get to see many of the aircraft as I would have liked; still, it was quite interesting.

Glad to hear about the true nature of this aircraft from a man who flew her. I remember back in the early '60s building a Revelle model of this plane. Thanks.

Yeah. Wikipedia is dominated by the political left. It's difficult to get a good balanced perspective on issues when there is so often a particular strong political bias, even bigotry in some cases. They love to throw around the "conspiracy" canard as a typical pejorative for issues and people they don't like or can't really understand.

When was learning to fly I met an elderly gentleman who had flown Typhoons with 486 sqn RNZAF. We got on like a house on fire. I was 15 thought he was great. Your long gone now Eric, but not forgotten. Hiwa hau Maka.

Thankyou for your service, Thankyou for my freedom Bro. (If you can call it that,I live in QweeBec).

God Bless.

I love the B-25 in the movie I heard that movie saved a lot of B-25 from the junk heap. I do not like the bad movie or the stange book. The only reason I would sit through the movie is to see B-25's fly. A d thats is the best part.

Thoroughly interesting account of being a 'Tiffy' pilot, an amazing story. The operations those guys flew were very hazardous as Harry attested. When I moved into the street where I live 12 years ago here in Australia, there was an ex RAF Typhoon pilot living two doors down - he had a large painting of a 'Tiffy' in his lounge room. And up the road and around the corner there lived an ex RAF (Polish) Spitfire pilot and his neighbour was ex Luftwaffe fighter pilot! There was no bitterness between them.

I'm 72, I was born with a need to be a pilot, and I achieved that. When I look back, as much as I loved the flying, I also loved learning from a WW2 DFC and bar Wing Cmdr rtd, and he told me he loved teaching me. What better way to honour his skill.

I lived not too far from Tallmantz Aviation and remember the day some B-25s flew out in a loose formation, possibly down to Mexico.

I love the opening minutes of Catch 22 where the sun slowly rises, then engines start, HUNDREDS of engines then the bombers taking off!

Volume increase please. Many thanks.

Love all these updates. Thank you for sharing these videos with us. ❤❤

at timestamp 32:19 / 48:25 is a White /Grey B25 with "MM" . . This was Milo Minderbender's plane . . A pilot who became a rich underground smuggler. . The plane was flown to Pittsburgh in the early 70's in a traveling airshow as "MM", then got repainted as "Daisy Jean" it retired to Route-19's Forest Lawn Cemetery . . .It disappeared one year. . and I read that it was bought by the "Confederate Air Force" and is still flying, repainted once again under a new name.

My Father Russell T. Dotter flew the hump 1944-1945 1st Lt. C-47 pilot.

I think it was SAC that made a weekly non-stop flight w/ the massive B36 from Texas to Alaska, flying over the big urban areas along the way, to show the most citizens possible that their taxes were indeed going to a program that would protect the US from any Russian Communist threat. In the SF Bay area [CA], one flight would be over the Peninsula and SF; the next flight would be over the East Bay and Oakland, perhaps for maximum program visibility. I can still remember the "approaching" deep-pitched ROAR of those Huge props and the Six Massive supercharged Three-row "Corn-cob" engines, a sound that transitioned to Even More prop Roar, combined w/ the Scream of the four jet engines that hung under [and ahead of ] the wings, near the wing-tips, as the Big Bird passed over, headed for the Arctic Circle and the DEW Line... It was LOUD ; it was a Show ; And Not at any great altitude; the windows rattled, and the leaves on the trees trembled... That was in the 1950's; we were kids playing ball in the street, after school...

A beautiful tribute to the men, and one in particular, who gave all to secure our freedom from tyranny. Thank you, Harry, and all your comrades, may God rest you easy.

range not discussed...could it even reach Moscow portrayed in the movie fail safe?

It was doomed to peripheral duties because lemay viewed it as a diversion from his dream team of the kc135 and b52

Awesome book!

Great movie!

1:16 I'll take one of those, 2 of those, 1 of that one......

Overlong introduction.

Grateful for the interview - "this" is the stuff that adds the necessary color and qualification to learning from History.

Excellent video, so interesting! I’ve never been that interested in the older generations of jet aircraft, but this was fantastically informative. A really great exploration into an era that was filled with such ground breaking concepts and research. I’ll definitely be looking further into your channel. 👍

all I see are a thousand places to bash your head...

Thank you.
