C.W. You are right about your fight against an F-15 with a FWS pilot and his awesome flight time. But I personnaly think the F-15C combine the best of F-18 (low speed handlings) and F-16 (high energy and high g's). I think it's still a beast. Good interwiew, thanks.

My respects Sir. Thank you very much for this interview. Your career is very fascinating!! It's a privilege to hear some insight of the two greatest air power in the world. I do have a great admiration for aggressors squadrons. I remember seeing my Dad discussing with an 527th TFTAS F5E pilot at Dijon when he was piloting mirages 3B in late 70s. I hope you've writen some BFM, BVR tactics manuals in your squadrons. Fly safe. Very respectfuly.

Adjustment too 6 to 9 minutes... I like what you did there Mover.

Great to see Mover, he looks even more relaxed being interviewed than he normally does hosting his own videos. Although he’s pretty loose and zany when he’s with Gonky. TOMCATS!!!

Great interview..Mover is a truly awesome human being

Mike ... one day your video interview archive will be invaluable for future generations. Your work will preserve the glory days of piloted jet fighter aviation for generations to come. You can be very very proud about your work and it’s impact on human history.

At 9:00 is a AZ ANG F-16 in Tucson. I’ve turned wrenches on that jet.

The viper is easily the prettiest fighter ever made. Always been my favorite.

Funny how every aviation geeks story begins the same way. My pilot journey started with a flight to Toronto on a Tristar at 11. I spent most of that flight in the cockpit. After that hooked and has never changed.

Awesome interview! Probably my favorite airplane, and definitely a collab between two of my favorite aviation KZreadrs. I’m looking forward to the next part. It was also great to get some anecdotal evidence for the Harrier’s legendary “viffing” move. Although it sounds like it wasn’t decisive against an F-16 driver trained in dissimilar air combat, I can see it turning the tables on an unwary adversary. Edit: Just pledged on Patreon. Only too happy to support fine work like this.

Good interview with Mover. I like how you dont interupt while the person being interviewed is talking. Very few interviewers are like that. Im also like mover i too have arthritis in my neck from flying the F-16.

This great..... I’m shocked a little y’all haven’t had this interview for so long. You’ve created quite the group of impressive men and woman... one wonders what you may do with all of your connections.....?

Great interview Mike, again. I am biased of course but I too think the Viper is the best looking jet. I got to go around a few at an ANG unit in San Antonio...almost got a hop in one but the unit said I wasn’t seat qual’d. Okay, I had a seat qual in the Goshawk, as you know, but was told no. Oh well.

Mover, what fighter would you say from personal experience is more higher performance over all, the F-18, or the F-16?

Super awesome that you flew the United States Air Force Reserve Command Lockheed Martin Block 30 F-16C and F-16D Fighting Falcons ( "Vipers" ) with the 93rd Fighter Squadron "Makos" of the 482nd Fighter Wing from Homestead Air Reserve Base in Homestead, Florida and also the McDonnell Douglas/Boeing F/A-18A+ Hornet of VFA-204 "River Rattlers" of the United States Navy Reserve at NAS.JRB.

Yeah those Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-229 Turbofan Engines on the Block 52 and the General Electric F110-GE-129 Turbofan Engines on the Block 50 are definitely pretty similar, but I'm glad to hear your feedback about them!

Yes that's correct the Twin General Electric F404-GE-402 Turbofan Engines power the Charlie and Delta Model Hornets. The General Electric F404-GE-400s are on the older Alpha and Bravo model Hornets.

Nice and informative as usual. I wonder how the USAF Reserves and ANG units alone could do against a top of the line force? Unrealistic I know. But the US seems to have more in reserve than most have in their front lines!!!!

We so massively out match the entire world...it's a total joke listening to them and their concepts that they think are some how equal. Nations with 6 subs that talk about there NATO commitments. Countries with their entire strategic lift capability of 5 heavies. Lol, carriers with jump ramps lololololol. Lots of cases where ANG pilots smoke airforce. It's not the same with ground units being as leathal.... But reseves ground units bring awesome loads of technical support, stuff we don't want to waste time with... Like how to do NBC stuff, or medical stuff... All we we want to do on the line is kill you. We want to kill you so fast no reservists have the time to make it into theater. But the airmen of the reserves major gift to battle is the tanker fleet. All regular commerical pilots that will though on a uniform and fly the gas that keep the air up in the air... Those guys are the back bone nobody sees that keeps these massive air armada's fed.

22:00 sounds like sparring my coach who thought me everything. nothing works! :DD

what happened with the astigmatism? I have 3.50 and couldnt even get a waiver.

QRF on site :) 2nd !

Block 30 bigmouth , best fighter out of all I flew. Eagle Cs, and Viper A- block 10 - C, No -doubt, block 3O bigmouth.

I tried to check it out but only getting that the F-16 is nicknamed the Viper. Or is it an official name? Only thing i got was one of the latest upgraded ones (F-16v) was assigned the Viper name. It would be cool to get some more info on this. By the way. Cool videos so keep them coming!!

@phillipsimmons5

3 жыл бұрын

The viper name comes from the pilots who flew the F16 in the past who viewed the aircraft like a viper snake on the way the it looks and it stuck with pilots to this day.All F -16s worldwide adopted the viper name but the official and original name is the fighting falcon.

I thought they made fighter pilots do leg and neck weight training????

When did it stop being called the Falcon and become the Viper?

@michaelengle9062

2 жыл бұрын

Fighting Falcon is the name USAF leadership chose and is still the official name. Decades ago, pilots decided Viper sounded cooler so that's how it's known amongst the crews.

Hmm, I'm surprised that ~1000 hrs. over 4 yrs. is consider a lot of flight hours. That's only ~20 hrs. a month.

Pssssst. TOMCATS.

CW Lemoine: T-38 not really interesting. CW Lemoine books: not that interesting. CW Lemoine almost soiling his pants in F-16: kinda interesting. CW Lemoine actually soiling his pants in rotary wing aircraft: that would be priceless. Too bad the Kiowa guy is obviously some kind of counterfeit item. Kiowa drivers are supposed to do stupid shit when doing anything outside reach of adult supervision.
