    Growing up as a teenager in the 80s was awesome. Movies like Iron Eagle were popular because our military had been rebuilt after a period of neglect. The awesome aerial footage was what helped the success of this movie. Much like Top Gun's aerial footage made up for the plot as well.

      Yup. After Vietnam our military really slid downhill. Enter President Reagan that started pouring billions into defense spending (that bankrupted the Soviets) to revamp our military. Fighter pilots were mythical beings with godlike powers to grade school boys like me. Then again, anyone wearing a uniform were heroes to us as I remember woodland camouflage pants were popular with us boys. I remember my 'Top Gun' inspired imitation leather flight jacket with patches I begged my mom to buy at Wal-Mart.

    He couldn't, due to the rules of the race: he was restricted to *50 ft AGL*, which helps to explain the flaps, and also explains the aerobatics when flying over the mountains (only way to keep from exceeding 50 ft vertical separation from the terrain). Notcher may have broken the rules, but Doug sure wasn't going to.

      I was thought 50’ AGL was too low for what Art Scholl flew the plane at. I’d say closer to 75-100 agl. ART Scholl was one of the best stunt pilots Hollywood ever saw. Perhaps probably one of the best stunt pilots in aviation. Unfortunately he would lose his life a few months later shooting TOP GUN.

    2: Sonny Chiba's character doing a kamakaze attack to help stop the nazi-run Peruvian drug operation.
    Yes, Iron Eagle 3 has ww2 aircraft from multiple countries, manned by stereotypes from those countries, armed with modern armaments, fighting in 90's South America against a Nazi running a drug operation. It's absolutely amazing.

He's straight and level and only doing about 45kts for heaven's sake!

    C.W. That was awesome, keep up the great content.
    On a more serious note, I had about 600 hours in FSX/P3D and XP11 before I started flying lessons, and the time did help, but when you actually step foot in a real aircraft and are handed that responsibility with real consequences its an entirely different feeling, so the DCS comments you made really made me laugh at how true it is.

    Yessss! Thank you! Thank you for splitting this up and giving this classic the attention it deserves. Giving me goosebumps. All the times I’ve watched it and wondered what a REAL fighter pilot would say. Can’t wait for part two!
    Will you answer the age old question, will missiles really fire while the jet is on the ground???? I’m ready.

      Flight of the Intruder: I read the book, first. I thought it was awesome. Then I saw the movie and almost couldn't bear to watch it all, it was so bad. The casting was wrong and the story mostly trashed. Or so I thought. The image that haunts me the most was Willem Dafoe sitting in the pilot's seat of an A-6 he just crashed in. In the book, it was a 'Sandy' pilot in an A-1 Skyraider...more believable. Mover, ruin this movie, please! :)

    Mover, from an old Rhino & "ADF guy, there were Papas, then Limas then Papas in the opening of the flick. You are correct in your observation! I flew the "80s" jet and never saw avionics like that. And those harness buckles look a bit odd. Amazing when you look at the small details what seems out of place. Ross

    • @csdigitaldesign
      @csdigitaldesign Před 4 lety +7

      I get why people want to call them Vipers... the pilots call them that (it was suppose to be the original name) and kept calling them that because they didn't like the official name given to the F-16. That official name is Fighting Falcon. So if you want to tell somebody you would prefer to call it a Viper (and I'm fine with that it sounds cooler if you ask me).. take it as that.. a preference. You shouldn't call them wrong however because it was officially called the Falcon by the military brass. Anyways regarding the name of the movie... I agree it's dumb to call it Iron Eagle and then use Falcons / Vipers. lol.

    I was in 6th grade when this came out. I was totally enamored with this movie and even thought the F-16 "Simulator" must've played a Pac Man-esque sound when the pilot died and said "Have A Nice Day"... I thought Hollywood would've changed a bit since then. Alas, I recently watched Hunter-Killer. OMFG... makes Iron Eagle look like a bonafied documentary. I was a Navy Nuke and watching Hunter-Killer I'm sure I probably experienced the same horror and dismay you must have had watching Iron Eagle. Thank you for the great posts! Keep on Keeping on!

I won't give names, but there is a Recruit Sustainment Program (RSP) in the Guard. Because he held a CAC & ID tags, already signed on the line...his dad who was a CW4 was able to get him a ride in the gunners seat. Actually flying... that's a negative. Cool reaction, Man!
