Unfortunately, during my visit to the Intrepid, their iconic Concorde that they usually have on display on a nearby pier was under repair! I’ll have to revisit someday soon 🤔

I was actually on the museum when I went to nyc very nice tour, it was so cool seeing such iconic aircraft as the a12, f4, f14, Concorde… up close. They also had an expo about star treck near the space shuttle, it was amazing to see all that living history at the same place. I also did the tour of the USS Growler, the submarine next to the Intrepid, really enjoyed my trip to nyc.

7:00 the slight trace of damage on the left wing was from after the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster. The investigators wanted to recreate a piece of foam striking the wing of a shuttle (As that's what they suspected happened to Columbia), so it was tested on Enterprise

That's awesome, a WW2 carrier turned into a great museum of great aircraft, and some really cool aircraft.
Hey! I am a New Yorker, and I have been here countless times, great video! I def recommend going back when they bring the concord back from its short restoration. I got to go inside it! Also next time check out the lower decks, there is a lot there too! Great vid!

The legendary Pigeon 69a, a marvelous feat of engineering. It's almost organic. Top speed: 92.5 mph. Released: at the beginning of time. The Pigeon 69a has the old wing flap technology that increases lift, the don't require engines! The have hollow structures and feathers for less weight! They fly around in groups doing surveillance over NYC, London, Paris, Venice, and more! They are also known as, "Sky Rats". They refuel on bread or any other possible foods to eat, they have experienced almost 360 degree cameras. SO ADVANCED! Much WOW!
The Intruder is one of my all time favorites. The side-by-side configuration looks awesome with it.
4:12 best aircraft there 🗿
aww, it would've been epic to see the concorde because I really love that plane, but the planes you saw there were equally as entertaining! I'd love to visit!

Thanks for watching mate!
Went on it a little while ago. I recommend it to anyone whos ineterested in Aviation or History. Great Video!
Incredible planes! I need to come here!
I’ve been at the intrepid for events in the past, really nice to see you enjoying it!
ive actually been here and the concorde was really cool. My friends were not exited when I started blabbering about cool facts and history of the planes. There was also a semi-flight simulator, with a HOTAS as well.
that looks cool ive actually been to NYC before and went plane spotting at jfk and saw some really cool planes such as an EgyptAir 777 and aer Lingus a320!
I remember going there for my 9th birthday… 10 years ago! Definitely planning on going again soon.
@Ice711 have you checked out the USS Midway museum in San Diego? They have some great war birds on the deck and inside the carrier as well. You can also look out and see other active carriers in front of north island naval air station, where they filmed some of top gun maverick😀
Visited this place around 5 years ago. Amazing, I did not have much of a passion for planes then, but this video made me realize how much I want to go back. Also, could you do a video about the flight back to Chicago or another drawing video. Thank you so much. Have a great day
Fun fact a variant of the sr-71 called the YF-12A has 3 missiles equipped to it and was planned to replace the F-106 Delta Dart( I think the missiles were the a-47 which inspired the Phoenix missile on the f-14)

Np, glad you enjoyed the revisit!
My dream USA visit is a tour of all the aviation museums.
Remember about this crash about Us airways flight 1549? So the plane landed in the Hudson River and stopped next to the Intrepid Museum and it is stored in Carolinas Aviation museum. Also have you been to the USS Hornet Museum in Alameda near Oakland?
I went here a few months ago. Sadly the Concorde wasn’t there but I did get to see one at the Udvar Hazy museum.
I can’t believe the SR-71 is on that!
This is so cool! I should put this on my bucket list.
On my visit there I was able to talk to some of the veterans who actually served on the carrier it was quite awesome because they walked me though their jobs they used to perform.
This is definetley gonna be on my bucketlist.
Legendary how this was used in the best aviation movie, Sully
I went there to! It was literally the best aircraft museum for me.🛩️
I’ve been able to go to this museum multiple times, and I’m lucky enough to even go on the Concorde! A truly amazing museum.
THATS MY FAVORITE MUSEUM
The Pigeon 69a had millions of individuals flying around in groups. But it's very rare seeing a Pigeon 69a prototype!

I actually got the chance to touch a blackbird once at a museum, truly an amazing experience!!
I’ve visited the sister ship to this ship! The USS hornet museum in Alameda CA. A lot of cool planes including an F14! Certainly not as many cool planes as here though.
I don't live in NYC but I've been to the Intrepid at least a dozen times. One of my favorite museums of all time.
Very cool! This museum and NYC in general, has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember. Hope to visit it soon!
i went to interpid a lot glad to see you there
How funny that this was uploaded the day before I have field trip for History Honors to this place.
Probably the coolest military exhibit I've ever seen. Never visited tho
4:11 i like the pigeon moment 😄
Y'know what Ice? I actually was interested in space, especially the Space Shuttle, until I saw your videos in my recommended which is how I got hooked into aviation.

I went to this museum during the summer, it is amazing to see that they just brought planes that were in the air onto this aircraft carrier which they turned into a museum, my favorite part is probably the mini lego version they made inside. The Enterprise space shuttle looked amazing, and even the British Airways Concorde which was also under repair when I visited.
man, I love this ship I've been on a few times
I actually went there during my trip to new York city and i saw also a lot of stuff as well including the Concorde but i couldn't go in either but it was still cool.
Damn those be looking amazing!🔥🔥
You're so lucky you got to see an SR-71 :0
I am a New Yorker and I also have been on the Intrepid 2 times, and one of those times was on my birthday, I honestly really love the Intrepid with all my heart, and I love seeing the space shuttle on display on the carrier.
Fun fact: the interprid museum is built on new york's pier 86, which was built to recieve ships of the united states lines that would dock between transatlantic crossings. Some of these ships are the SS America, SS Manhattan, SS Washington and the infamous SS united states. After the united states lines cessed passenger service to focus on cargo, the pier was closed down until it was hollowed out and partially demolished to accomodate the museum. Pier 86 was also built alongside piers 88, 90 and 92, part of the same complex. Nowdays 88 and 90 are still active as a joint cruise terminal, that's why you can see a disney cruise ship peeking out in a few parts of the video.

@@aviationaboveallBoth museums are grate and it would be ideal to visit both of them, but if you had to decide: the intrepid offers more planes on display and a full flight deck while the Hornet has a F-14 you can get very close to a more cleared fight deck and you can Explorer more of the insides of the ship. I have been to both and i can recommend both!
I actually went on the intrepid when I was young
I’d love to visit there one day. I’d be awesome

Yo the is the Intrepid, I went here when I went to New York. Saddest thing though is that the Concorde wasn’t there because it was getting repaired
I been on the intrepid museum. I visit when the Concorde is still here. But the Concorde is remove. But idk when it is coming back. The f14 and sr71 look fire the interior looks amazing. The reality is like you are in an actually aircraft carrier. The ticket is cheap the jet is large and cool. Intrepid have a Lego model of the aircraft carrier. For me personally I think it was very worth going to intrepid.
I saw the Concorde btw it was very cool also i think there was a space shuttle at the carrier because i visited it!
I think I'm going going on that boat to see the planes next year as a brit
That place looks very cool, if I ever go to NY I wanna go there
I’ve gone to that boat many times, I actually went on the Concorde! They told us it was going into repairs in June, I was hoping to see them floating down the East River.
Great video, love thst carrier you were on. You should check out the Midway in San Diego, or the Museum of flight in Seattle
You should come to Galveston and tour the USS Lexington.

Go down one more floor to the hangar (you probably did), there are some planes stored down there as well as a flight sim and what I believe was a space sim with motion? Haven't been there in some time despite it being less than 10 miles from my home, thanks for the update.
