- The 50th FTS from Columbus AFB presents:
A collection of clips highlighting the flight training done by the World Famous Striking Snakes!! - Krátké a kreslené filmy
One of the best years (actually 53 weeks) of my life - going through USAF pilot training - Class 68B At Laughlin AFB, TX - from there to F-4s - 26 GREAT years in the AF flying fighters - a dream which came true for me -
My dad flew the RF-4 and loved it
@@av8tore71 I did as well re RF-4C's.
Congrats Carl for staying in the cockpit that long. The only thing better than UPT at Laughlin is UPT at Willie. :-)
@@av8tore71 Tell your dad hi from a fellow phantom driver!
8603 laughlin loved every minute
As a 3000 hr T-38 instructor at Laughlin (Del Rio by the Sea) TX, it was THE best job of my life.
Now a retired B787 captain with over 38,000 hours and still flying corporate jets I'll never equal that experience in the T-38
Man...great times in the 49FTS Black Knights at Columbus 1993-1994! Great jet, great flying, great friends!
Earned my wings at Webb AFB class 70-02. First of the T-38 IPs at Columbus AFB January 1970. Loved strappng on my go-fast pants and flying formation. Best people I knew were fellow IPs; every one was a class act.
I graduated from Columbus class 81-03. Great memories.
Not a true Columbus experience without a WX CNX and a Little Kitchen push! Nice work!

I inspected the T-37 and T-38 at Laughlin AFB 40 years ago. I watch these video's over and over
I spent 7 years flying those same 4 planes…40 years ago this year. Good to see they’re holding up. Still like the white paint best, though.
I too, miss the White Rocket.
My Dad went to UPT at Columbus in 1954. “Romeo I” He cartooned there year book. “Dreamboat 54”. They flew T-6s.
Excellent effort. Brought back memories from class of 05-08. Keep the legacy going. KUDOS
Congratulations for this great video, what a great way to recall the experience that I had on that squadron back in the 08-09 class.
Beautiful video, great words on the beginning! 😊👍
One of the reasons i wanted to join back in 79.. Yall flew a lowlevel route behind our house. I miss hearing and seeing the birds. Be safe and fly on the wings of eagles.
I know I'm a little late but your videos are super motivating. Can't wait to do this stuff.
Webb AFB 70-07 Grad. This video stirred tons of memories. WOW.
Glad it could take you back for a few minutes!
Thanks much! What a great year it was! @@andrewkubinski
This was an amazing video!
8164 at 2:30 sistership of "my" jet (8163 had my name from 1994 to 1996 at Columbus).
Nicely done! As both an alumus (1979) and instructor ('97 - 2000), I thoroughly enjoyed my years with the Snakes.
FREE the Patrick-8 !!!
Nice job! I loved getting glimpses of the new cockpit, HUD, and no chutes to walk out to the jet. Great strides in preparing the pilots of tomorrow for the electronic jets. BTW, nice on speed touchdown in the zone on the final landing. Well done.
Thanks! gotta say, not having to wear the chutes is pretty nice, and these newer seats are a comforting last resort compared to the old ones!
Remember all the times walked out to the flight-line without their chute and you would wait to see how long it took them to realize they forgot it ??? wr@@andrewkubinski
Great video
I LOVE taking care of you guys.
Let's get you in the air! Hell yeah! 🤘🤘🤘
Couldn’t do it without all the support, we appreciate it!!
@@andrewkubinski Got your back 100%.
Nice looking aeroplane! Beautiful. Would love to fly a trip in one. CAVU skies to all aviators. Me 47 years in the RAFVR.
Best T38 video of them all, and I’ve watched them all.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
So have I, and I agree with you!
@@andrewkubinski So Andy when did the AF begin allowing cameras in the cockpit? Wished we could have back in the day.
Nice one Andrew!
Looking at these pilots and thought........Do their mothers know where they are at? 24 years in the JAG CORP I'm definitely getting old.
This is a great video. I good friend of mine is flying the A models down in Louisiana in the USAF Reserves
Great video Andrew!
Thanks man!
Красивый грациозный самолет👍👍👍
Great video, brought back memories, Willy's Class 92-08. Are you training in the new T-7?
These days I'm lucky enough to be flying an F-16, but the T-7 looks like an awesome trainer once they get them up and running!
Sweet camera roll trick! Hot Wheels race track?
Way cool!
Thanks!
AMAZING VIDEOOO ❗❗❗❗ loved it !!! That soundtracks did you use? Thank you!
Afterlife by Illenium!
@@andrewkubinski thank you!!
UPT class 8301 at Columbus. What a year it was…..
Good to see MBS - home of Atlanta United at about 2:57!
Lazy D flying through downtown ATL is a bit of a challenge but that stadium looks great from above!
Ones a Black Knight always a Black Knight Chek Six Z-MAN from Argentina
🔥🔥🔥
Why so low on likes? This video is amazing! Two question, if I may: What is that smoke/steam coming up from behind the seat in 4:13? And what is that pin for. I mean the one you are putting back somewhere after landing. Thanks a lot.
Thanks! That smoke is just water condensation from the AC, happens all the time when its hot an humid! There are 2 pins inside the cockpit, one for the emergency canopy release handle, and one for the ejection seat! Both are removed before takeoff and returned once at a safe taxi speed after the flight.
@@andrewkubinski Hi. Thank You very much for reply. :-)
I flew with the Snakes 1993-96. 'My' jet was 8163, sistership of 8164 shown in this video.
8163 still flies strong!
434th Red Devils, served two years with them.
More of an 85th guy myself
I miss my white rocket!
Who said that quote in the beginning? It’s great
Steve Jobs in a Stanford Commencement speech he gave back in 2005
Columbus grad to an F-16. Class 93-10.
Loved it. As we used to say in Nam,”F*&$n A.
Willy 91-05. Warlock/Gombey
Any reason why up to 1:55 mark the name patch and squadron patch are on the wrong sides?
james allgren good catch! Nobody has noticed in almost a year! Some of the clips were flipped to fit a different video, so you are actually seeing a mirror image in some of the shots
Sky Sharks
Kubes, im slightly embarrassed to say this, but the whole time we worked together in the STUS, I never knew which plane you flew. I just knew it wasnt T-1s.
Haha that’s what I get for having my office in the 50th and not with the rest of the STUS!
@@andrewkubinski ha ha nice! That would explain it
Do T-38 FAIP Pilots sit in the front seat or back seat?
95% of the time instructors sit in the rear cockpit, although some student navigation rides are flown from the front seat while students learn to navigate using only instruments from the back seat.
Just Slippin some Surlies!!
🤘🏻
Is it intimidating to do aerobatics?
Not at all! As long as you dont get sick!
Try dogfight with SU-27, that will be great👍👍
With no weapons on a T-38, im sure it wouldn't last long haha
@@andrewkubinski oh please .. I'll watch 😀😀
My uncle was the guy that if you failing flight school that you would have to prove that you what it takes to pass.
If all yee who enter here have fear.
You're "special" that's for sure.
Ruined by terrible music and a fairy boots speech at the beginning.
ha ha...so you didn't care for that part so much...does seem stupid when you think about it
Why youtuber insist to ruin their clips by music ???
World Famous they are not, that's just Fluff words.
