This dude hasn’t ever forgotten anything.
Great interview. Starbaby delivers. When I was a young lad, dad flew Voodoos with Robin Olds at Bentwaters Woodbridge. They had ranges in England then. When they would return from Europe, RAF Lightnings would intercept the Voodoos. Of course dad had and MGB! Living the dream.
Brilliant and very witty - I loved the window to check wing still there for B1 crack
SB looking studly as ever. Great interview, cheers

The F-4G still has one of the best RWRs in the business. Also: this guy is brilliant.
Very cool that he got stick time in so many 90s jets, has a bunch of combat experience, did exchange tours, flew the Phantom, great career! Hope he does a Q&A although I suspect much of his EW work is/was classified.

Glad you enjoyed it.
Loved to fly both the Phantom and the Strike Eagle. Then there was the Vark, Spark Vark, and the Prowler.

Wow, you flew all of those? Well done! Where/when did you fly the Vark? Maybe we crossed paths...

@@sharizabel2582 OK, great. That was after my time in the jet. By the 90s I was in the F-16. I was never stationed at Cannon, but spend a few days there a couple of times. Sounds like you were with the Vark/Spark Vark at its very end (in US service anyway).

A Buccaneer most likely .
LOL, great interview but you'd think he would have learned how to pronounce "Cambridgeshire."
Great video, but you need to check your audio, this one was WAY quieter than the last.
We all know u broke the jet in Finland
Great vid, this guys honesty, was so revealing and under a Bidens FBI he should worry of a Clinton-ciding end of existence the outcome was honest and intelligent most surprising from an Wiso/Ewok back seat Ballast. His memories of uk and Mil life were reftreshingly believable i really respected his Candour. Good stuff Geordie lad! Though your hope for an F3 encouraging or promising story never occurred, as usual.
