    When I was a kid we lived on top of a hill in California. I was very into aircraft especially fighters because my dad worked on them from 1941-1960. Sonic booms happened all the time and F-100 's would sometimes fly low overhead. I loved every minute of it.

    When I was at Cu Chi in 1969-70 F100s, for fun, would get permission from the tower and do a low pass, usually from North to South at high speed. down the runway. Usually around 50-100 feet. Very loud and very amazing. If you were sleeping then you weren't.

      I visited Cu Chi a few years back, crawled through tunnels and all that. From a historical point, it was very interesting to see, however it was also sobering to think of all the souls lost in the area on both sides, and how it's now become virtually some sought of amusement park, with the booby traps etc displayed with glee. As an older Australian who had friends who served, I found it a bit disrespectful to those who did not make it home.

    the BEST thing about this video, IMHO, is that the subtitles gave a clear and crisp gist of WHAT THE HECK THE VIDEO IS ABOUT in just the first few seconds....i have had to look at quite a few videos which started with "the world is going to end in the next ten days..here's why" and went on a drawn out and rambling narrative...maybe I'm exaggerating, but i would like it far better if more videos just gave us a simple outline of what the entire video was about in the first few minutes...

      @StevieWonder737 They were not hard on the engines, but we had a duty cycle restrictions on the cart starter turbine assy. On the TF30, we had a more robust starter installed on the left engine, able to handle the high heat and high flow of a cart start. Subsequently, it was slower with hot bleed air starting. The Right engine had a smaller but more efficient turbine starter, more able to use bleed air for starts. The J75 on the Thud was similar to the TF30, and as they were Pratt motors, might have been the same or s similar starters.

    Damn, LOVE a good Cart start! Had it and used them on two of the favorite planes I worked on, the F-105G and the F-111's, the last planes to come so equipped, before the F-15 and it's JFS. When they had to use up old stock, we'd pick a day and do cart starts for the day's sorties, usually 8 X 4 mission plans (8 jets, then 4 of those for the night sorties). You couldn't see the flightline for a minute if it was calm due to the exhaust, but they spun the motors so fast, they would be up to idle in seconds. Those were the days!!!
