F-4u Training Film & F-35 Mishap Avoided

[stewstewart]

I hope this is the correct place to put these. I rely on the certainty someone will yell at me...er, inform me if I have misplace them or broken any other rule!

I'm not sure the short on the F-35 made it here in a usable condition or not - stay with me as I am new at posting these here and will learn. It's a harrowing experience for the pilot - and I don't usually talk nicely about fighter pilots. This was forwarded to me by Bernie Beldin - another old fart retired Air Force cop who's from Richland, WA.

The link below is from John Sullivan of Manassas, VA.

Very "instructive" Stew! I have some copies of the training films done for the P-40, Hellcat and P-38. While the lasts ones are very plain and "institutional", the guy who filmed the P-40 movie had the great idea of introducing a funny character as student pilot, with lots of sitcom situations and jokes here and there. It is in colour, wich is also a bit rare.

( I moved it to the Beacon. our small research center...lol )

F-35 film a Hoax!!!

Good friend Marc Woolverton, of Manassas, VA, replied to my e-mail distributing the film with the clues it was a hoax and a report on "Hoax Slayer" (First I'd heard of the Hoax Slayer). I'm assuming Marc's right!
