just under 8500 hours as a Flight Engineer VP-30, VP-6,VX-1 VXN-8 VP-40 Wing 10 loved every minute
Flew with VX-1 as my last Naval command. EWO here. I echo the love for the old girl.
I was an AX 2 in VP 23 and got out in 75. Great times, even got to go on UNITAS 14. Liked being around planes and moved to Alaska and bought one not many years after I got out.
Remember welcoming my day home couple times in the late 70s80ish when he was an engineer for VP-40 (go Marlins) while in Moffet Field (hanger 2 & 3) and then again from 82-86 in VQ-2 (Sandeman) out of Rota. Loved getting to visit the planes on open houses etc..
I was assigned to VXN-8 from 1973 to end of 1974. before transferred to VP-30 in Jacksonville Fla. Enjoyed working on the P-3 as a mechanic.
Jesus they still have those shitty mfds at tacco ss3 ss2 ss1 navcom station. Yikes. Severely outdated even if it is 6 years ago my God
My dad enlisted in the Navy, 1965 - 1969 and did two tours in Vietnam on three aircraft carriers and two Cam Ranh Bay stints. He got out of the Navy in 1969. He was in Army Reserve for 4 years and decided to reenlisted back in the Navy in 1980. Not only that, but he was enlisted to be AX attached with P-3. Later, he became CCC. He was retired in 1994. He helped a lot of people with their career in the Navy. Furthermore, he enjoyed hearing people doing very well in life. I am lucky to have my dad serving his country with an honor.
You're a good son to a good dad.
I flew as a sensor operator in P-3B and C mod Orions at Barbers Point, HI from 1977-91; My first P-3 Squadron was VP-6 did a tour with Wing Two then flew with VP-1 followed by second tour at Wing Two. I took my grandkids up to VP-1 now at NAS Whidbey Is. WA. Got them a tour of a P-3. Only thing familiar was the flight station NAVCOM Station and Sensor 3 Station; I had flown as a Sensor one, that station is now radically different as shown in this video. Cool video though. VP-1 is the only Command that I served in the Navy with that still exists.
My father flew this beautiful aircraft!
I guess almost nobody outside of the Navy has even heard about the P-3. It's really sad... A plane's legacy dying silently while everyone is talking about the P-8.
In New Zealand we have 3 P3-K2s, we had 6 but have been retiring them. I've been on 2 of them 06 and 01 and theirba pretty cool aircraft. If I was a few years younger I might of gotten to work on them but the last one is being phased out a year before I enlist
I have plenty of people who have heard about p-3, but they don't understand what's their job was for. I explained that to them. I told them that they're known to be very reliable and will bring my dad home from the deployments safe.
Worked on them when I was stationed in NAS JAX. I loved being in them almost everyday.
P-3C Avionics Tech VP-50, VP-31 FRAMP, & VP-4
I was an AE2 in VP-9 at Moffett Field, CA 85-88 P3-C loved it !
Did you know a navigator called "Shark"?
Or a pilot named Dan Habel?
@@RLaraMoore the maintenance crew generally did not associate much with the flight crew. So no, I didn’t know either of them.
My dad was a P3 Orion / S3 Viking ADUB from 1978-2001. Iv been a Dub from 2004 to present. Love the P3
Flew in P3A Orion aircraft for 2 1/2 years, flight communicator, with VP-49, from January 1966-June 1968
One of the aircraft I work on at the museum at Moffett Field in California is a P3A Orion from VP-91. Where we were fortunate enough to get it after one of the pilots said “the ground came up really quick” and he broke a wing spar. Managed to restore most of the interior after the Navy stripped it and managed to get some sonobuoys.
This Aircraft detected Indian Submarine in pakistan waters today.

humayun891 and also in 2016
Boy, I sure do miss this .... Dec. 84 - Nov. 89 VP-19, Go Big Red
VP 4 Barbers Point 77-79 SS 3 Loved that plane
Faetupac Moffat... trained VP46 31 others Australia New Zealand Canada others... 66-67 PT Sur Rooftop trainer ..... took 2 tractor trailers down to a foot locker sized system you could carry on a Orion... loved the duty ... instructors could out hunt and kill anyone in ASW...that’s what 40 hours s week of simulation can do for abilities ... any free time we jumped into action and went for quietest to the fastest running in circles or figure eights....
I flew as an IFT in Charlie Baselines (VP-40 & VP-65) this must be an update4, never seen the inside before!
flew in p3 Orion for 10 years. Miss flying
How does one become a surveillance pilot?
VP-1 made the cut!! Fleets Finest 😎
I was in VP-1 from December 1983 to May 1987; We were homeported in Hawaii at that time; I had also served in VP-6 (77-80) and did two separate tours at Patrol Wing 2. 7000 hours P-3s, Bravo baseline, Bravo Mod and Charlie Mod (Acoustic Sensor Operator). I also have 7,700 hours as a civilian pilot, varied general aviation aircraft and DC-8/61&63CF and Boeing 727/100 first officer. Totally retired now.
you arrived as I left...
I was an AX in VP-1 and I worked in AIMD, and I got to go to the PI while there.
TSC changed to ASWOC Misawa Japan 78, 79 then Moffitt 80 to 82 VP 46 SS 1&2. I miss the P3. ASW was the best duty a man could ever imagine.
NAF Misawa still had P-3's there. Dec '87 - Dec '89.
15 years, 4400 hours in P-3C, with VP-5/45/16 VX-1/20 great memories
The museum I work for has a P3A from VP91. It’s a fun aircraft to restore and we’ve managed to fix it up for the most part.
@@Dashi18n in 1973 I went on UNITAS around South America for 4 months with P3As. Our squadron had Bs but they didn’t want to show the AQA7 so they painted up a couple of As to take. They found some old guy to teach us the old avionics. That was a good time staying in hotels with per diem. 20 years old and 10 days in a hotel on Coco Cabana Beach in Rio.
@@Chris_at_Home Now that is wicked cool! I think in my time in the storage room I have cataloged our AQA-7 shelved it somewhere. It’s wild to think that it was state of the art technology back when you were my age and that you would have been trained on the P3A coming from the P3B!
@@Dashi18n Wow, to think an AQA-7;sits on a shelf somewhere now. I remember going to an air show at Elmendorf AFB in the early 80s and they had a P3 there. I went in and they had the AQA 7 covered up. I started talking about what was covered with my friend and I got an evil eye from the one of aircrew.
Was in a VP squadron out of NAS Brunswick in the 70’s. Equipment is a lot different-sonobuoys look the same, though!
I was in VP 23 in the early 70s. I was an AX.
The equivalent of a tractor trailer hauling a super computer and a bunch of nerds using it to spy on everyone.
We could add subsurface boyce for combine mine, submarine and drone data collection for safety of personel
VP-9 4life!
Shout out to the sensor three since you weren't shown!
SS3 VP-47 68-75 , before SS3 we were called Radar, and cross trained to SS1 and SS2, which we called jez ( short for jezabell) and julie (SS2). Radar, Mad, ECM,LLTV those were the days
Awesome aircraft and awesome video!
VP-48 Moffet & Iwakini. ‘67-‘68. P3 deltics and B’s. 1300’hrs. Jer operator. On station when the USS Pueblo was hikacked. Best job in the world.

My dad was a p-3 NFO, from 88-08
Hello! M Hopkins! I was in VX-1 During 1969-1971 What yrs. were you there?
Many of my friends are in this video. Miss you Dillon Cole
The CZcams stabilisation(?) is a bit nauseating, but awesome video.
Remember our Plasma Displays

Hey, there it's AT1 Zumbach hope all is well with you (I used this video for a bio slide in my engineering group).
@@jeremybackup2585 YOOOOO! Good to hear from you Dude! Life is good over here.
I love the sound of this plane.
That sound (and vibration) messes with your body and especially your hearing. I'm hard of hearing from my 2 flight tours at VPU-2 and VQ-1.
That reminds me of something about that sound a few years after I got out in the mid 70s. . I was working in Prudhoe Bay and an air freight company used Hercules aircraft was running their engines in the middle of the night and I had a nightmare that I was still in the Navy and had to get up.
Anyone know if they took off from NAS Whidbey island?
definitely looks like it
The TACCO in this video looks mad familiar
My dad was a aes op on one of these for 20 years
Jez P2V/P3A here.
You must have been in the Vietnam navy.
okay ignore the Nav, that's cool...
They didn't show the Trypophobia-inducing belly of the P-3 Orion
Hmmm.... First Lieutenant is on the captain's seat.
I think it's a Lieutenant Junior Grade on the left and the Lieutenant is on the right
The aircraft has three pilots; Patrol Plane Commander (PPC), Second Pilot (2P) and Third Pilot (3P). The pilots routinely switch seats during a mission usually the PPC will make the takeoff and landing but not always. Could be that the Lieutenant (O-3) is new to the Squadron and not the PPC and the Ltjg (O-2) is the PPC also.
Who fires the missiles, please ?
The co-pilot, or the right seat pilot fires missles
@@dalep7295 And the TACCO aimed them ?
i wonder what risk the pilots of p3 have to brain cancer with all that heavy avionics?
I was an AX and they didn’t tell us much about RF. I retired from a communications company and when ever we worked around satellite and microwave we would wear a RF detector that sounded an alarm at a certain level. . We also used a device to sweep for RF leaks quarterly or after a seismic event.
@@Chris_at_Home Hello. Former VP-4 Aircrewman here. Deployed to Oman in 1992 and sprayed with RF any time boots were on the ground. You could hear the buzz every 30 seconds when listening to AFES radio.
@@roccodonato4120 I was in VP23 from 72-75. We went to places like Sigonella, Azores and Rota. I also went on a Unitas around South America. I went to Kuwait in April of 1991 to help restore communications as a civilian. I went to an Air Force Radar site here and tried to video and every few seconds the beam would destroy video and audio with that beep buzz.
@@Chris_at_Home Hell yeah! That buzz day and night couldn't have been good for us. But we're still here. I was born in '72. Lol. To bad the Orion is phased out. Took my job because I was center seat. Good memories though.
Wait, Australian planes, American crews. Dafaq?!
I think it's an Ozzie plane that you see out the window at the start is in the US for an exercise mission, but this plane is a US one.
It's a US Navy P-3 with a US Navy crew.
VP48 Boomer here (1984 - 1986).

Yup, just as boring as I remember it being. S3's were much more enjoyable.
