Jerry Reed's F-16 Story

The second admin on our Facebook page found this one, too. I have no clue where she found it. I think she said it had been on here but that it was taken down awhile ago.
(Yes, that is Ralph Emery.)

Can you imagine having a time machine and going back to the 70's and sipping moonshine out of a mason jar in some barn with Jerry while he plays guitar and tells some stories? That's a reason to invent time travel by itself!

I am an audio engineer and mixed his band once (turn pike authority dinner)it was one of best shows I had the privilege to be a part of, thinking back on it I wished I would have recorded it but they wouldn't let me
Jerry Reed was such a talented and funny man! He made our lives brighter! What stories he would tell! Hilarious 😂 Thank you!
So hard to believe there's a world without this man! Always loved Jerry Reed....whether he was playing music or in a movie! RIP! 😇🙏. 💕
You can never get tired of this man

Good grief nobody tells a story like Jerry Reed! Even without a guitar in his incredible hands, that voice, that character, and that delivery just can't be mimicked. RIP, Snowman.
The man is a legend! Real talent, real heart!
Jerry Reed You’re intelligence and talent was above most . Thanks for sharing . Shake a lil rattle for us all . RIP Rocket Man .
I just found out ol' Jerry Reed passed back in 08. you were and always will be a legend sir, see you on the other side.

He got thinner as he aged, then died of the very slow, agonizing disease of emphysema, at 71 yrs. that's a long time to smoke those hated cancer sticks. I hate Cancer. RIP, Jerry Reed Hubbard, March 20, 1937 Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.~ September 1, 2008 (aged 71) Nashville, Tennessee, USA He was still smoking in 1971 too. so sad.

Colonel Jenny was the ops cdr of the 388th when I was assigned to that wing in 1985. He was a real hoot just as Jerry said. I bet those two had a wild time on that ride! Wish we could hear the whole story!!!

Jerry Reed was a fun country music artist love his music, awesome man he was!
I loved him dearly , and he'll for ever be missed. RIP Jerry.
Jerry to me was an actor, and a personality, didn’t pay any attention to country music. Around the time he passed I discovered his guitar playing and no explaining needed there. I play guitar and he is my benchmark. His music, man. I consider some of his early seventies stuff as Country Funk .Then there’s the Reed personality.

Jerry Reed was exceptional at everything he did, from his musical career to the movies he acted in - he was a joy to watch. The best movie i ever saw was "The Survivors" with Robin Williams and Jerry Reed. He was so good in that movie that Robin Williams couldn't hold a candle to him
Had an old uncle, now deceased, always reminded me of Jerry Reed for some reason.
I absolutely ADORE Dear Jerry Reed! Such a character. I swear he IS Cletus The Snowman. Fantastic talent, taken away from us all too soon at the age of 71. He was the BEST PART of Smokey & The Bandit. Him & Jackie Gleeson. Am 45 & he is my "country music crush", my absolute favorite. Such a neat little guy. Sure would have loved to have gone out with him. What a date that would have been! Love ya Jerry! 🥰
Great musician……awesome in Smokey and the Bandit
Such a character!! He always leaves me wanting more, if it’s playing guitar or telling a story..
In 1989 when I was on the DMZ in Korea Jerry Reed came up to the outpost I was on on Th DMZ. He visited the outpost just before lunch . When the HUMV pulled up to the outpost Jerry got out of it with a beer in his hand. He got the tour of the outpost. He is a real frindly and very wild man. I have the most respect for him.. He did talk about his times in the air force
Jerry Reed was the best :) I was laughing with tears in my eyes looking at this interview, I wish there were more of them :)

Funny man and an awesome entertainer.
What a great soul.

They shoulda gave him 2.5 hours. He’s one of my hero’s.
Thank God for Americans like Jerry Reed. We need more of them!
I couldn't get my upper lip off my lower lip (so he could scream) LOL I've done 3.5 Gs - I could not move my head to wave at friends either Jerry and it was hard to try and raise my hand. Much respect for these pilots doing 5 Gs and more.
God I miss him
Jerry had a cool role as a pilot in the movie Bat21.
I hope Jerry earned his wings.
I always felt like Jerry was my kinfolk! I really want to hear the rest of the story!
A great story. The way he tells it makes it funny. That subtle high pitched noise throughout the video was a minor annoyance but so goes the quality of some film.
Woah...charisma overload. What a star. Btw had to edit this just to say...turkey!
I do love Jerry reed. I lived in Clearfield UT near Hill AFB and saw firsthand every day the type of takeoff jerry described.
Jerry was AWESOME
I would like to hear the rest of that F-16 story, please... Thats one funny man, no doubt!
HE COULD TELL THOSE STORIES AS GOOD AS CLOWERS
I watched that the first time it was on TNT. It’s still funny.
Old Amos Moses huntin Alligator down in the swamp with just one hand ain’t got nothing on Jerry Reed with this one!
Funny the F-16 is still very much a dominant jet all these years later
She got the gold mine, I got the shaft.
In the mid 80 i had the chance to meet Jerry reed at the eugene Oregon county fair still got my hat he autographed.
Jerry was awesome.
